I'm postponing mine I just found out that my ins only pays 50% of the 16,000 dollar surgery. So my out of pocket would be 8000 and they want 4000 before they do surgery. Than make payments for the rest. So depressed

I live in Pottstown, PA but work in North Wilmington near the mall. So I could be an honorary DE support person. I sleeved back in the beginning of February so am a bit ahead of you guys.

NewMe- I am sorry to hear that you have to postpone your surgery. Have you checked with your insurance yourself about how much they will pay? It almost sounds like your surgeon/facility is either non-network or not a Centers of Excellence under your insurance. They may pay more if you go to a different facility/doctor.

I'm so sick of chocolate Protein Shakes after 3 weeks of liquid. Any suggestions? I'm drinking some milk and broth.< /p>

Full liquids you can do cream of mushroom or cream of chicken Soup strained - trader joes (sorry I know there isn't one down there) has some yummy broths and Soups

I bought Matrix vanilla and was allowed to add frozen no sugar added peaches or mangos. Berries would come later.

I also used DaVinci SF syrups such as caramel, brown sugar/cinnamon, gingerbread, Peanut Butter They have other such as raspberry.

You can add Peanut Butter to the chocolate or vanilla shakes. There is PB2 which is powdered peanut butter. I just used real peanut butter.

I did eat some creamed Soups and strained the chunks out. I loved the broth from wonton Soup.< /p>

I would suggest ordering samples of Matrix or Nectars. I got mine from MyBaratricPantry. They have a huge variety. I drank shakes for a few months after the full liquid phase to make sure I was getting Protein. I use them less now that I am 5 months out from surgery. It is nice to have the shakes available for awhile. I way prefered the Matrix or Nectars to the pre-made.

The full liquid phase will pass soon enough. You will get throught it.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
