Any MAY sleevers???



Recommended Posts

try Premier Protein peaches and cream,I got them for my in-case shelf where all the pre surgery items are,kept. Still not giving up on late Spring-Early Summer for me. Anyhow last week I was running late for PCP appointment. Hadn't ate so,popped one open. Not bad at all, very faint evaporated milk aftertaste. I'm sure I will loathe such things before pre and post [emoji40] surgery diets are finished but I could stand this one. I'm allergic to chocolate and so many use that for a shake flavor, I like strawberry now, but every day? Maybe not, cross that bridge when my road opens back up.. Soon and very soon is my deepest hope. [emoji12]

Try Quest banana cream it’s awesome IMG_2627.JPG
It’s so yummy. And often I just make s with Water. They use real freeze dried bananas in is so good

Hi. I had my sleeve done a week ago today. Please try not to be nervous. I'm sure it will all go fine. My advice would be to tell you to get up and walk walk walk has soon as they let you! It really does help with the gas pain. By this time next week you will be feeling happy you had it done!

I have found that I love Syntrax Nectar. The unflavored dissolves well and I can add it to my crystal light or Soup or whatever. (I haven't had my sleeve yet, but I am getting ready) The fuzzy navel is really good too. There are about 15 flavors, but I have not tried any others. They even have a sample pack. I will say the unflavored is only 10 g Protein per scoop. The fuzzy navel and other flavors have 23g per scoop. https://www.si03.com/nectar.php

This is the Syntrax site and great for info. Amazon has it a lot cheaper.

The purpose of the pre-op diet is ketosis which shrinks the liver. The liquid diet was tough for me since I don’t enjoy the Protein Drinks. I did, however, stick with a high Protein and no carb diet during the pre-op and lost weight, and the surgeon said my liver looked great.

Had my pre op appointment today! I am extremely surprised that my surgeon has me on a liquid diet only 24 hours before surgery. Thoughts???

I believe from others comments here that not all surgeons do preop to shrink liver so he must only do clear fluids day before to have a clean clear stomach.

      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?

      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
