My gastric bypass is scheduled for May 23rd. I’m over the nervousness and am excited for a new chapter. I’ve read and watched as many YouTube videos as possible. What are everyone’s favorite Protein powders/shakes? I’m still looking for mine.

Congratulations on your surgery date!
I am enjoying the FairLife shakes.

Seeking friends! My sleeve surgery is May 23rd. I’m so excited and can’t wait! Anyone else have their surgery around this date? I’m 260 lbs And 5’8. I want to lose 120 lbs. Anyone want to be my friend and we text during our journeys?

My gastric bypass is May 23rd! Surgery twins! My pre-op is not until May 11th and I find out about my pre-surgery diet at that appointment. When do you start your pre-op diet?

Close to you for surgery date! I’m May 24 for bypass. My favorite right now is Muscle Milk zero sugar. It is a whey Protein isolate and from what my nutritionist teaches are better tolerated and the more concentrated form of protein so you get more absorption or something like that lol. I also like Vega greens powder in vanilla but muscle milk is nice because it’s easy to find and pre made in a shake. Unjury is very good and is also a whey protein isolate 

Yes me 5th May

Me too!

Hello I'm new here too my day is May 31st. I don't think I'm scared yet. More anxious if you will say. Because I have more health issues that I'm ready to get rid of. I'm ready to get my life back.

Oh I'm having the gastric sleeve surgery and I talk to people that have had the gastric sleeve and most of the ppl I've talk to, have gained half of the weight back and they say it's hard to keep it off. You have to be really really dedicated and work hard and stay away from sweets.

I love the Muscle Milk zero sugar too. But right now I'm doing the liver reduction diet it's a really good choice for me right now other than a Slim-Fast see I have a option. I'm also looking at the nutrition being that I need some vitamins too.

To you as well. I'm on day 4 of liquid diet. We got this.

Whoever said “more anxious” I am right there with you. I have more energy now that I’m 15 days away but it’s definitely anxiety based ?

Yes we do. I hear if you make it to day 5 of liquid diet it gets much easier

Day 3 diet of 2 weeks liquid ugh, I am hanging in there. But I dont know whats worse, being nervous/anxious about the surgery or dreading the constipation thats coming at some point!! lol
