    Favorite Protein Shakes/Supplements?

    Ive started using Bariatric Fusion and they are awesome but I also heard that Unjury shakes were really good too. Unjury also has a chicken flavor for soups and broth and a cheese sauce. They sell a started kit that has samples so I wil be trying them next!

    Did you keep it a secret?

    I have told quite a few people which I am honestly regretting! Everyone has to comment or at times judge me for my decision. What annoys me most about this is that almost all of my friends and family that I have told are not overweight. They never have been and they dont understand whats its like to be the one size 20 in a room with size 0-8. And quite frankly its a part job explaining the whole concept with the surgery and the diet. I made the mistake in looking for support by telling people and some honeslty will support me in whatever I choose to do but all of their questions are killing me!

    Headaches and pre-op diet

    Im not even on the liquid diet yet and i get them! and I never had problems with them before!
  14. Dreaming about ONEDERLAND!

  15. im kinda in the same boat everyone is assuming that ill just get approved. I just finish doin my psycological evaluation but my doc's office was talking about scheduling a date before i even went. and like you beside being overweight i have not other healt issues. But my doc assured me that because i dont have any other healt problems is even more of a reason to have the surgery becasue we'd be able to prevent some of those other problems but getting the weight off now. It also depend on your insurance... i found out that different insurance companies require different things for WLS. Either way i know the suspense it agonizing but have faith and just prepare yourself for it to happen anyways because when it does it will be fast!!
  16. I'm soo happy I found the app! I and 24 and from Buffalo, Ny. I should be scheduling my LVSG soo for March or April.

    Newbie saying hello!

    So far it has been a little hard to adjust.. Im use to eating pretty much one meal a day which is dinner.If i ate something before then cool but i never worried about it much. Im a hairdresses so sometimes stopping and having a sip of water let alone a snack is hard. But i want to change my life so my nuritiionist asked me to do a trial run and ive been finding time to fit in the meals i need and the liquids!!!
  18. been on my pre surgical diet since 1/22 and im down 9 lbs! I didnt even notice until i got on the scale!
