I have started to follow some of the healthier eating patterns that we'll have to adhere to after the surgery. I found an online store that has a great selection. BariatricChoice.com offers a lot of incentives and reward credits. You will receive 20 off your order of 40

or more. It is a secure site . I was able to get 20

off my first purchase of 40 or more. You immediately begin saving and can

get more for your money. You will also receive

20 in reward credits for anyone you refer that orders from bariatricchoice.com. I ordered the 2lb

canister of Roadside Lemonade Syntrax nectar

Protein drink and the Ostrim Natural

beef sticks' date=' and Chocolite bars and instantly

received my 20 off plus free shipping. My

grand total after the credit was 36.36. For

everything.. Anyone who knows about the

Syntrax

nectar, knows it 36.99 by itself. So I'm

extending a referral to anyone that

wants to order from them. You will not be

disappointed.

Just go to: https://www.bariatri...efer/id/112948/

and use the referral code: 8696996

Awesome, I'll look into that as it gets closer. I have a fear of it falling through until it is set in stone!

That must have been very disheartening for you, to have so much success and then have the lap band become ineffective. I read so many posts regarding the band and it being so unsuccessful.

Welcome to the December sleeve group! :D

I am scheduled for Dec 9th. I'm so excited to finally get this started. I had Lapband Jan 2009. I lost almost 90 pounds then had a slip and revision surgery in May 2010. Then I started having problems again and had it removed in March 2012. I've since gained all the weight back that I previously lost (that has been pretty devastating!). I can't wait to get on the losing track again.

I'm also hoping for Dec :) of this year. I've never had any type of surgery; therefore, I have never taken meds beside over the counter meds. The only thing keeping me from having surgery in November :( is having a long Waite list for a sleep study that is required. So, keeping my fingers crossed that the days go by fast lol

Hi everyone!

I'm Michele from Pennsylvania. My husband and I are both having surgery Friday December 13 ( thank heaven I'm not superstitious ;)) insurance gods permitting. We've done our entire 6 month program together so it's been pretty awesome. I tease the med people that we're their BOGO.

He has a lot of med problems that we're hoping will be corrected by surgery. Hes the former great condition athletic type that gained a lot when he stopped playing sports. I'm the short- always- been heavy girl who would strictly diet, get easily discouraged by minimal loss, eat, regain etc etc. Anyway- -we have ultrasound and endoscopy to go. 2 week lc diet to start black Friday and that'll be it! Nice meeting you all and best wishes! Stay strong! :)

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
