January/February 2018 Sleevers

[Ja1luv4life 30]

I’m doing okay right now. Day for and I’m finding it hard to drink the last Protein Shake of the day. I got the Baritastic app. It’s pretty helpful with timing and reminders

I'm scheduled for surgery January 23rd. Im on day 3 of my pre op diet which consists of 3 Protein Shakes, one meal, and unlimited liquids. I've been doing really good with it so far. The reality of the actual surgery hasn't hit me yet, it's like I'm just changing my life and walking into the unknown.

Looks like a lot of you have Valentine week,as your surgery date, would,have liked mine then but I think I'll be more like St Patrick's Day, if they moved forward this coming week that's how far ahead they are booking. Dang it ,I'm an impatient puddycat, feel like I've been waiting forever for this date with destiny. And my BBF (that's Bariatric Friend Forever) has been jerked around even longer, gone from November to,possible March/April, she may moult or be down to pinfeathers before it happens. Not fair to happen to a fine feathered fowl like her.!!

Same here!! I have the same date for bypass. Where are you getting it done? I’m so worried for my final weigh in next week bc I know I gained like 7 lbs since my previous weigh in in September.

I’m getting the sleeve at Delray Med Center. I just went for my pre op and gained 4 pounds from the holidays. They didn’t say anything I can’t believe it’s 3 weeks away ! I have been waiting a long time to do this Where are you getting your bypass done ?

Yes!! Let’s help each other thru this ! I would def like to keep in touch as we go thru the diff phases. I went to see my surgeon today and we went over my pre-op bloodwork etc ... happy to say everything is fine I go Friday for an educational class and then I’m ready for surgery day I am sticking to a low carb/high Protein diet for the next couple of weeks ( I’m going to have one “last supper”) and then I need to do a liquid diet 3 days prior to the surgery (which is the Super Bowl 😞) But that’s ok ! I’m excited to get started ! Do you need to do any special diet prior to the surgery ? What Protein Shakes will you be using ?

We should all meet up for a broth party after surgery lol. I’m having surgery in Mexico as my insurance doesn’t cover the surgery. I will be on a 10 day pre-op diet liquid starting on the 28th. I’ve already started cutting carbs and caffeine in preparation. I’ve been on Weight Watchers which is high Protein. I’ve lost 30 pounds on Weight Watchers but soooooo ready to have surgery and stop the yo-yo dieting.

Also, I’ve found the Premier Protein shakes to be pretty good. I tried the caramel today and it was good.
