Perfect i was looking for someone to share me date. I would love to keep in touch and check on you during our journey! So far I've gotten my Premier Protein shacks, Isopure and natural whey Protein power to put in my soups.( Miso, bone broth & chicken broth).

My mother in law also had this surgery and will be making some puree foods for me to freeze and use when I get to the puree stage.

I can not wait to be feeling and looking great in my own body. Lets keep in touch @Maryvsg87

Yay We definitely staying in contact with each other!! BTW I didn't even think about the miso soup which I love!!! Thank you!

Congratulations!!! I know that feeling of getting your date!

I'll be having my surgery November 13 in CT. The closer I get the more nervous I become. Good luck to everyone sharing the journey the next few months! I can't wait to see how everyone does!

I’m scheduled November 4th with Dr. Illan at BariatricPal MX. Traveling from Connecticut.

I’m hoping to schedule Nov 14 in Puerto Viartta with Dr Lopez. Sneak in a little vacation with my Sister.

My date is November 4th! I start the two week liquid diet this Saturday and head to Mexico very early on the 4th. I may end up going by myself, which is a bit sad, but I'm excited to go otherwise. Nice to meet everyone.

Nov 14th Atlanta Ga.
