Hi everyone!! This is my first post & I'm looking for October surgery buddies. I'm very excited about the surgery. I've gotten my psych clearance, scheduled my sleep study, nutrition classes and upper endoscopy. My date is October 14th. Btw, anyone here from Jersey? Look forward to making friends w everyone!

12 days post op and feeling great. Found myself walking alone a lot since most of my friends (pre-op) would rather barhop or watch football on a sunday. Anyone notice that post-op your kind of on your own in a way around people you know? Since you cant really eat or drink junk like before?

for those of you hating the taste of Protein shakes i found one that for me anyhow has been a godsend. nature's best Isopure zero carb. i have been drinking the Cookies n cream flavor. the bag smells like ice cream when you open it up :) what is nice is each 12 oz service is 50g of Protein so 2 shakes a day max should sort you out. i got mine off amazon.com for like 17 bucks. GNC has them im told also.

good luck everyone

@@tardis76 so glAd to hear you're doing well... I was doing excellent until the 7th when I was told to start shakes and vitamins.... I can't seem to keep anything down especially the Vitamins and now just a few sips of a shake and I can't keep it Down ???? ... When do you start your puréed diet?!

Has anyone else gone through this??
