Any April sleevers out there?

[sherrinita 12]

Hi Sherrinita. Can you share your pre-surgery diet with us and have you tried any Protein Shakes yet ?

I use My Fitness Pal to keep up with the foods I eat and my calorie intake....I just found a Protein that I really love and it is the Target Brand (Market Pantry) whey Protein 25 grams Vanilla....I love it so much...I mix it with Almond milk vanilla and use my blender with a little ice....awesomeness.....

Thanks so much for the tip on My Fitness Pal ! I just downloaded it onto my iPad and what a GREAT application !! I hadn't heard of it. Hope others here check it out. It's a free app and is really amazing !!

I've been out of the loop for a few days and just popped on to catch up. Boy!, you all are so far ahead of me on being organized! I still haven't had a chance to try/order any Protein Drinks. I better get a move on! ???? Had my appt with the physicians assistant on Tuesday and got my orders for all my per-op testing. I'm very happy that the hospital I'm using has one central person and she takes care of setting up all the appointments! My life is so nuts that this is a huge lifesaver. April 8 here I come!!

Hi! I'm April 10th - five weeks from today!

This is my first post, but I've been lurking a bit here and there. I plan to hang out here a little more as it gets closer, though. I'm really glad I found this forum!

I've decided to wait on my expensive Protein Shakes. So many people say your taste changes after surgery. So I'm gonna save trying those till after surgery. I'm nervous too! It feels too close, but far away.... If that makes sense. Lol. If y'all have usernames for My Fitness Pal, lets share, that's a good way to keep up with each other also!!! Mine is weezie64 add me!!!

Hi Deena. I took a long time after the initial orientation to make a firm decision. After all....this IS major surgery. However I reached the decision that I wanted my life back for myself, my husband and my family. I'm a little nervous about it but am looking forward to the ultimate result. Good luck to you and don't forget to post on here to let everyone know what step you're at and how your weight loss is progressing !

Hi Simone, you are a week before me. I look forward to hearing all about your post surgical experiences. Have you received all your clearances yet ? What kind of pre-op diet will you have to be on ?

Hello, I waited two years for my surgery. I'm scheduled for April 10th. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I can't wait until it's finally over and I can claim my spot on the loser's bench. Good luck to all the April Sleevers!
