I just ordered free samples online at http://samples@bariatricchoice.com - they send for free within 2 days a catalog and protein samples. Also, I checked out http://www.wellesse.com/health-needs/bariatric/ and got free samples of all Vitamins. I'm going to check out more. I'll let you know. :)

Lol. Me as well. My pre op diet consists of a Protein Shake for Breakfast & lunch and a lean cuisine for dinner and at least 64 ounces of Water. That should shrink the liver for easy access for laparoscopic gastric bypass. I'm going to hopefully not go crazy!!

Wendilou gave a great packing list on this thread. Go backwards and you should find it.

I am new to this group but my surgery is April 26th. I live in Canada so am fortunate that our health insurance pays for the surgery. Had my pre-op yesterday so nothing else until day of surgery. I am beginning my second week of Optifast and it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I am anxious, nervous everything rolled into one. WIshing this will give me a reversal of my diabetes . Fingers crossed.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
