Hey everyone, just got my date! Looks like December 20th...going to be a different Christmas this year. My wife's sleeve went well last week. She had to stay an extra day in the hospital, but she is almost back to normal at 6 days out. This is my first surgery so I'm very nervous...but I think I'll make it.

Congrats !!!! Mine is Dec 19th... starting to get nervous but EXCITED for my new journey . Start my liver shrinking diet Monday per my doctor .

Glad your wife is doing well

Vitamin Shoppe has a good price online for Isopure. You can also buy on Amazon.

Hello! I am new to this forum. My gastric sleeve surgery is scheduled for Dec 15th. I am on day one of the pre-op diet, and it is going as expected - I'm hungry lol.

I am a revision from Lap Band. I lived with a Lap Band that had somehow migrated up to the bottom of my esophagus for a good 4 years. I basically had no pouch, and almost everything I ate got stuck. I had lost some weight initially, but it all came back as I ate whatever would go down instead of what was good for me. I had the Lap Band removed in June, and the weight came back on faster than ever. I now weight more than when I initially got the Lap Band.

I'm ready to make the change. I'm older and wiser and tired of being tired. It's time to work.

I really like Optimum Nutrition brand Double Rich chocolate flavor mixed with 1% milk. 1g fat, 3g carbs, per 23g Protein. Also, Syntrax Fuzzy Navel brand flavor (kind of a peach-orange flavor) with Water on ice. No fat, no carbs.

The admin sent the wrong info into my insurance company. Idk how insurance works but apparently there is a code and she just typed in the wrong one. So now they have to cancel the bypass and resubmit for the sleeve and hopefully it gets approved in time. If not then I lose my surgery date and did this liquid diet for nothing.

oh dang that stinks because of someone else's mistake. :( were they able to fix it in time?

I’m going to use premier for now but I’m not going to buy a big case because our taste might change after surgery. I also bought Isopure unflavored Protein to mix into my puddings, Jello and to make smoothies with.

oh that's a good idea...thanks! I'm going to order some of the powder too. :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
