I'm only a week out from surgery but was wondering how people order when eating at a restaurant. If you want a salad (my favorite) do you order off the regular menu and ask to make it the size of a side salad so you don't waste? Also wondering if most people were allowed to run after your two week checkup?

Any extra protine?
Christopher Lazuka replied to betchaican's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Don't have any extra but I do have a suggestion. EAS makes a remade shake with 42 grams of protein that cost around $30 for a twelve pack. I don't know the price of the powder itself but I did find this the cheapest way to meet my protein goals. -

Gastric bypass
Christopher Lazuka replied to piperchavez's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congratulations on this big step. All I can say is I work in the OR and have assisted in a lot of bariatric procedures. I have never witnessed an negative incidents during surgery. I am so comfortable with them that I have mine scheduled for tomorrow. Hope that helps! -
Depends on what you do for work. Many people are back within two weeks. I work as a Firefighter and was told to take a month off. I need to find a hobby!

Gain weight to qualify?
Christopher Lazuka replied to kittydream's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Have to admit that I had to make some adjustments to qualify for insurance coverage. Don't feel bad due to the fact I have given them so much $ over the years. Kept stuff in my pockets for weigh in and bent the knees during my height check. You can find little cheats to help get it covered, although we shouldn't have too. Good luck! -
