The whey protein shots aren't bad at all, i refrigerate mine. And they remind me of jello shots- minus the vodka. My dietician said i cant have protein shakes the week after surgery, so clear stuff like the whey protein shots will be my source of protein. I found them for $2.68 at walmart, and Kroger had them on sale for $2.00.

I am Dec 8th! I find it difficult to communicate here too. I thought it was just me!! I would love to have surgery buddies. My email is Hollywood3838@Gmail.com

They said 1-2 nights for me. And i have to do a 7 day liquid diet

Hi susan, I'm good, getting the sleeve. Im so excited, so ready for it.

Im in Beaumont , Tx. Getting Sleeved around the 10th of Dec. i would love to be in a Dec group to have some Buddies to chat with via email or text

Thank y'all for all the kind words. Im trying to stay positive. Im thankful for this forum full of such wonderful people. I dont have a new surgery date yet, but they are saying around Dec 10th. So fingers crossed

On Nov 13th my surgeons office scheduled my sleeve for Nov 24th, Ive been on cloud 9 this week since Ive done the whole " jumping through hoops " requirements for my insurance for the past 7 months. Ive lost 33 lbs since my 1st visit with my dietician,and I've attended every class, Ive stayed on top of all of the requirements. I had already attended the diet class and bought my pre op kit. I started my liquid 7 day pre op diet on Monday, and doing great, the surgery date has finally made all of this seem real. This morning docs office calls to tell me my new labs came back testing positive for H Pylori. So i had to start a 14 day antibiotic treatment today. Of course Nov 24 Th is not going to be my day. I had everything arranged with my job, I was so upset all day. Im trying to stay positive, and i know this stuff happens,

Thank you for the kind words and support. It means a lot. And wtg!! Wow, thats awesome your mother did that for you. Im glad everything went well. And congratulations ! Im just hoping after the antibiotics all is well so i can do this at the beginning of Dec!!

Im in Beaumont ,tx. I go to the Bariatric center of southeast tx. -Dr.Jerome Schrapps. He is great! My surgery is Monday the 24th. He has sleeved several of my friends. I have ins, so not sure of the price. But you should call. Its only about 1 1/2 away from Houston.

Mine is the 24 th too!!

Oh no! Poor thing, Im so sorry. Maybe something will change by then and you will have help.

Congratulations and i wish you the best! Mine is in a week!! Im nervous / excited too!

Hi, I just discovered this app yesterday, and Im loving it. I too am having surgery on the 24th !! I would love to have several people to go through the journey with me.
