Intro / questions (long)
Inner Surfer Girl replied to BeardedEagle90's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
One question I would ask your surgeon since you are an athlete is about nutrition post-surgery. My understanding of a difference between bypass and sleeve is a difference in nutrient absorption. Best of luck with your decision and thank you for your service! -

Sugar free diet yet against aspartame
Inner Surfer Girl replied to MUA's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Juicing on pre-op diet?
Inner Surfer Girl replied to Stephanie Kandace's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I quit eating McDonalds salads years ago. I swear they must use some weird preservative because they have always messed up my tummy.
