I am going to BWH, on Halloween, hopefully the staff don't dress up or I will really be hallucinating from the medicines or the staff.

Anxiously awaiting my date...was hoping October, but they have to approve me, "the team", to see the surgeon and we book the surgery at that appointment...I've been bugging the staff cause I can't plan and its driving me crazy!!! Too many holidays upcoming and I want to be well for Xmas. I'm at BIDMC.

That's 3 major Boston hospitals covered! Funny. My husband works for mine' date=' so our insurance is tied into it. Turns out they're also awesome.[/quote']

I just had mine done at BIDMC 10/15 with Dr. Jones. I work there part time as a nurse.

Good Luck Boston Sleevers. I go for my pre-op testing tomorrow. I think the worst part will be getting through the Boston rush hour traffic.

Hi All. I am having surgery November 7th at BWH. Dr. Robinson is my surgeon. Can't wait till it is done and past the first stage. I am really having a difficult time drinking 64oz of Water a day. I generally get half that down a day. I also am discouraged by all the sugar substitutes in Protein Shakes and foods. I have a sensitivity to them. Tera's Protein is what I have been using. The vanilla is great with PB2 added. I have also purchased Jay Robb but have not tried it yet. I am wondering if blending a shake whips too much air into it causing gas issues after surgery. Some things I have been thinking of purchasing are an ice cream machine to make healthy protein ice cream with skim milk and a Yonanas. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks.

      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! 😞
