Hello,

Yes, I am having my sleeve surgery on Monday (Nov 14th).

I have been sticking to the pre-op diet, taking my Vitamins, drinking my Protein shakes daily. I didn't find that the diet was difficult at all.

Shakes: Premier Protein shake which has about 22g of Protein per 8oz. serving. Have them in vanilla and chocolate. Not bad at all, but before I run out, I might order a different brand.

Also ordered some unjury Protein Powder and tried it in place of one of the shakes. Mixed it in 8 oz. of chicken broth. It was real good.

Just found this place and I think it is so cool.... and had fun going through the store.... can't wait to try a few items I saw there.

2 more days! Woohoo!

Not feeling nervous at all... just excited. I am so ready for this!

I wish all of you November sleeve patients the best! Stay positive. :)

-Shelley

I am having so much trouble choking down Protein drinks. It smells like the tube feeding I put in my patients and the taste makes me want to vomit. I tried the double shot espresso from CLICK last night and it's the first shake that didn't make me sick. It comes in lots of flavors but make sure you can have caffeine. My boss is having surgery with a different surgeon and she's not allowed caffeine. I have variety packs from 3 different companies to try, and I'll keep you posted if I find anything that I can tolerate.

FYI: I'm have surgery in 3 weeks with Dr Ortiz in Mexico at OCC

Nov. 21 st and I'm so anxiety- ridden I could wet my pants. Lol. I've talked to so many people who've had the surgery and are grateful they did, but I'm having a hard time believing them! It's probably because of the two week pre op diet. I'm so hungry and I'm sick of Protein shakes and crystal light.

      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! 😞
