Hi All, I was sleeved on 9/22/2015 and have lost a total of 28 lbs. since surgery. I DEFINITELY had to learn my new tummy because when I started purees I could not tolerate food for almost two weeks. I'm better now, had to be put on proton pump inhibitor and took about 5 days to kick in. The gas and bloating were bad but seems to be getting better. I'm looking forward to my goal. WE can do this!

Hi Kisha, how are you doing since your surgery? I am looking forward to joining the club, lol.

I'm okay! Very emotional but I'm sure that will pass with time.

How did everyone do with their preoperative appointments? Was there any issues? I'm getting ready to have my endoscopy and sleep study done and I'm a little nervous.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
