I have known my surgery date for a few weeks now but just found this group. I did find a couple of other ladies who have the same surgery date as me and we have been emailing each other a few times a week.

Any additional support is welcome and appreciated! I am having the bypass surgery, as are the others who I'm emailing with.

My wls class is on wed Dec 3rd. I'm sure we will discuss vitamins and protein shakes, also the requirements for the liquid diet. I have my vitamins ordered and also have my protein shakes. I haven't bought much else because I don't know the specific requirements being made by my doctor.

I feel ready for the surgery- definitely excited and looking forward to the changes that are ahead.

I just had my class Dec 1 and we discussed vitamin intake and the different phases of the diet post op. I also have my vitamins and shakes. My dietitian said a lot of times a persons taste changes after surgery and you don't always like the same Shake flavors or brand of shakes

Mine is scheduled for December 23rd as well! 2 weeks 2 days!

I'm december 23rd too and looking for a support buddy!
