LOL, and their lies the most common issue amongst us, some of these drinks are absolutely disgusting and some nearly made me puke as well, getting your hands on some samples first is always a good move or take the extra step and contact the company for some. The real surprise is to what chemicals they slip into products today (DATEM (DiAcetyl Tartaric acid Esters of Monoglycerides) and you practically need a degree in science to avoid foods today.

Had my surgery on April 24th and no amount of research could prepare me for what I felt! However, things are looking up for sure! I’m walking daily and getting back to feeling normal. I’m struggling with liquids but my mom came in for the surgery and she has a timer set to make sure I’m exercising and drinking. Now, we are in the process of complying some food food ideas for the purée stage. This is something I’m looking forward to after being on liquids going on 3 weeks now! Any recipe suggestions? Down over 20lbs since i started the liquid diet to now! Woohoo!!!

Thank you so much that is what i am trying to tell myself. I know sometimes it needs to be reminded lol

I had an RNY with absolutely minimal pain. MINIMAL! LOL. I would tell myself, "Breathe, and relax...this will go quicker than you think and you're blowing things out of proportion. No reason to work yourself up over this. It's a cake walk."

I still have between half and a whole protein drink per day. I use it as coffee creamer and to make iced coffees.

I'm one day post op. Came home today feeling pretty good. A little gas pain, but other than that I'm good. Getting some much needed rest.

I drink one caramel premier protein in my coffee everyday. I figure 30 bonus grams of protein doesn't hurt:)

For some weird reason, I didn’t have to do any pre-op diet, I just was NPO after midnight the day before I had surgery, I went in 309lbs on the morning of my surgery, and I weighed today at my two month post of visit and weighed 268lbs

Hello, I am scheduled with Dr boorse in June. How was the approval process for Amerihealth? Anyone use this insurance?

Sorry for your stress and struggles. Make peace with with your life. Show yourself compassion, forgiveness and unconditional love. You have the strength to turn this around. Your pre band weight was 245. What you have to lose now is not a large gain. You are back on top of this! Another note to put on your mirror below. Enjoy your sunday!
