Yea, I haven't told anyone either. Only my family knows. I tried to do sleeve a cpl of yrs ago and everyone had an opinion. I told my boss I was having surgery, but didn't tell him what kind. He's the biggest gossip in the office, smh. So I told him I'm taking 2wks and will return in October

Wow, I'm glad I posted my date in the title! Alot of us will be having surgery on the same day. We should try to check in with each other :) I've been overweight since I was 2 yrs old, lol. I can't wait to shop in the "other" section of the store or order cute clothes online and not worry about it fitting right or hiding my rolls, lol

Well I'm on 2 shakes a day before and after surgery, and costco had a sale on my shakes I paid a little over a dollar each. I have a baby food maker that I found on Craigslist for a whopping $10. It steams and purees to make different consistency. I got some mashed potatoes, just add Water, my nutritionist warned me about not feeling up to do alot after surgery, so I tried to shop for before and after. I have some canned chicken not too excited to try for after surgery. I won't have much help after surgery so I'm trying to prepare as much now. I also have a baby container with ozs on it so I can drink my 1oz evert 15mins. The Powerade is for after. I also got 2 boxes of gas x when I coupons now I have to sort thru my clothes and find sweatpants for my recovery.

Premier Protein shakes, 30g of Protein, 1g sugar and 160cal. I'm in Capitol Heights, MD. Very close to Washington, DC. Oh I forgot to mention the Baritastic App. It literally has everything we need. It has Water, pill, food reminders and timers. It has a journal, weight log, food log and exercise log. And it connects with my fitbit

Your closet looked like mine and I hope you use everything because I certainly did not. I bought so many different Proteins, $$$$$$$$$ and other products recommended that I just didn't use, grrrrr. I only use premiere Protein and GENEPRO powder that I did stick up on.

      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! 😞
