Still new to the group. Got approved yesturday.. And surgery is literally next wed Dec 23. Im stoked!! Met with my surgeon today. Hes pretty cute and confident.

I need help...started liquid diet yesturday with protein shakes...doc said he used to recomend optima fast..aka slim fast...now the hospital recommends batiatric advantage bc its lower cost. Thoughts?

I really like the Premier Protein shakes. They have 30 grams of protein and taste really great - at least the vanilla does! If you have a Costco membership, they are about $25 per case of 18 so that equals about $1.40 each. They have 160 calories per shake and keep me full for a long time. I have tried all sorts of shakes and I also like Whey Tech Pro 25 at 24 grams of protein, 110 calories. They have a Chocolate Mint that is really good!

Best wishes for your surgery on the 23rd.

Any 12/30 sleevers?

12/28 in Boston, MA

January 18th!!

I am surprised no one else is the 30th. I can listen and learn from all of the 28th'ers. I have a broken foot so that is going to make things interesting - i have my cast off - but now an air cast. Ain't nothin but a thang. Lol

Thanks. I actually like the premier protein too. Started on chocalte and vanilla is like drinking milk. Ill look into the whey one as well. Surgery is tommorrow.

For those of you who are scared to have christmas festivities....cant you make it not all about food and treats? That is what we are doing in my house. I have 5 girls and so we are doing alot of christmas crafty projects and going on outings together as a family...not focusing on just food like cookies etc. Christmas eve we are planning movie night and making lap blankets with fleece. New traditions for a new life style!

This is a great idea juno5. If your are having your procedure prior to Christmas, I don't think keeping a lid on it is going to be an issue. At thanksgiving I was not enticed by the food whatsoever, and if you are bold enough to try something, your new belly will let you know right away you have made the hugest mistake. It was great to be around family and friends non the less.

I'm a few days away from getting sleeved (12/28) I'm a little nervous but very excited. I think Christmas is helping take my mind off what would normally give me anxiety. How is everyone (sleeved and waiting) feeling?

I have my weak moments and moments where I am ok. I will be sleeved on 12/28. I am not nervous but I am anxious to get the procedure done so the weight can start coming off

I'm officially sleeved...not in much pain due to meds just so sleepy
