sandylynn88, I am 28, but started this when I was 26. I had a long hard battle with my insurance and initial surgeon of choice's office. I am now private pay and have a surgery date of 7/9. I too was a smoker. I have since switched to an electronic cigarette and have weened myself off nicotine(currently on just flavored vapor). Now for the eating in between what is allowed, make sure you are choosing healthy foods. Stock up on veggies! They give you the satisfaction of the munch and crunch of chips. I also turned to Dannon Fit and Lite greek yogurts for the desert flavors (let's be honest, their strawberry cheesecake and toasted coconut vanilla are amazing!). Small changes will give you big results! Take this one day and one step at a time! Best of luck to ya!

Hello all...Im about half way through the process, I have had 3 of my visits with the NP and the NUT, psych eval done, sleep test done (apnea for me ugh!), hoping for a late august or early september surgery date. Im drinking the premier Protein premade shakes for Breakfast Meal Replacement to get me ready and I really like them, not chalky at all. Good luck to everyone!

Re: Premier Protein shakes -- I am a big chocolate person, and I usually never even bother with vanilla flavored anything, but I have to tell you, the PP vanilla shakes are really good. I like them more than than the chocolate, which I never would have guessed. Also, you can make them flavored for variety, using Mio drops -- Tangerine Mio + PP Vanilla = Creamsicle flavor! I also got a big box of strawberry to try, but they're my least favorite flavor. I don't hate it, I just don't love it.

Great idea with the Mio!

      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! 😞
