  • Hi ladies. I am now officially post op !! Feeling way better than I expected. I am very tired but I'm comfortable and relaxed. Surgery went well and the hospital staff is awesome !! Hope all of us

  • I am officially post op now too! I'm still pretty groggy but just did my first walk. Yay! It is going much better than I expected as well.

  • I think I've come through pretty well. 1 bout of nausea yesterday after surgery but no vomiting. Gas is concentrated more up top so a lot of burping but no real pain. Finally got some ice chips today.

Yeah, it's a way to get the Protein in other than shakes. It works much in the same way that Crystal Light does. Just put the powder in your Water. Ordered some cherry yesterday and it's on its way.

They have allllllll kinds of different flavors I am going to have to get the sample pack too I think.

Hi All,

It's so wonderful to find others that are having surgery on the same date! :D

About myself; I'm 24yrs old female living in Australia and have a BMI of 33 with no complications however I do have a family history of obesity and other medical complications. My starting weight is 103kgs and my goal weight is 60-67kg.

I am just tired of yoyo dieting and having low selfesteem and pretty much being overweight.

I am self funded and have an appointment with my NUT on the 6/8/2015 through Skype consultation to discuss any pre op diet as I will be flying to sydney to have my surgery.

This year has got to be the most drastic year for me; from losing a loved one earlier this year to currently going through a break up. I know now that I need to focus on my self and my health right now and end this year with a positive change.

I would like to keep in contact with you all to see how everyone is doing post op.

Much love!

I am sorry for your loss, but congratulations on moving forward to focus on your health and well-being. Welcome to August 17th Club :D

Koziejozie - sorry I missed your post you are also having surgery on 8/17 - that's awesome! So many of us on the same day.

I'm also scheduled for Aug 17, and have been on my pre-surgery diet 2 weeks. I've looked around the iNet, and the best price I found the Syntrax Nectar was a place in New Hampshire. I ordered fuzzy navel, Caribbean cooler and Dragon Fruit. Their link is. http://www.nashuanutrition.com/store/bariatric-products/
