I'm from Kennesaw my surgery date is Feb 18, 2014 at Mexico Bariatrics with Dr. Alejandro Lopex. So excited I've already started a Protein diet and will start a pre op. diet on the 4th which is 2 Protein Drinks and a light meal. Unfortunately my BMI is to high 51.6 and you get charged an additional fee if it's not 49 or lower. I have around 20 lbs to lose. Ugh

Are there any guys in the Atlanta area that were sleeved?

I am in Adairsville (exit 306 on I75). Dr Scott did my sleeve surgery at Floyd hospital on 1/22/2014.

That is great to hear Deena! It's only been five days for me but I am feeling pretty good. Any suggestions getting through this month?

Just take it slow and easy, try you best to get your Protein in, and your Water ( you will not get it all in at first). It's going to be sore getting up obviously you know that. sleeping in a recliner helped me. Walking also helped. Keep your eye on the prize! It's a great journey! I was 281.2 on surgery day, today I am 211! Good luck!

That really is encouraging Deena, I get all the Protein Cala called for and 40-50 ounces of Water right now. I was really impressed with the experience so far.

Hello everyone I'm from Conyers, GA will be sleeved in March. I'm super excited but equally nervous. I've just begun trying different Protein drinks to have an idea of what I like and don't. My goodness this 6 months has just flown by.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
