Out of pocket expense?
hco7416 replied to simplyrita8's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
2700 for me -
My friend in TX used Chike Protein shakes in 2013 after her WLS. Thought I would ask here to see if anyone else had opinions prior to ordering their sample pack. I have unjury samples being delivered today.

Anyone use Optifast 800 shakes pre-op and/or post/op?
hco7416 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've done Optifast in the past and like their Protein shakes. They have about 18 grams of protein. Anyone use those pre & post surgery? -

hco7416 replied to hco7416's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like all flavors powder and liquid of Optifast. However I just read my Nut instructions and Optifast has too many sugars. I just tried vitamin shoppes whey isolate and it was good. Going to buy some premier to try and I have Unjury samples that are due to be delivered Monday -
I get on this site (which is wonderful). But I flip flop everyday on my decision and what to do. Surgery still scheduled for 1/19. I want to have it but then panic kicks in and I get cold feet.

@@ojibway, My surgery is/was scheduled for January 19th. I'm calling Dr.'s today to cancel/post-pone. I discovered this website a week or two ago. Very motivational in the beginning but read a few posts last week that scared me half to death. I too am going to try and do it again on my own first. I think I may actually schedule a few follow-up visits wtih the psychologist I had to see prior to insurance approval. Yes you need to do it for you, but all along my surgeon's office stressed the importane of a support person. You have to have support to be successful in my opinion. Best of luck to you and your journey!

100 lbs down and the unfortunate random things I've learned plus a few NSVs!

You are beautiful inside and out. Don't ever let anyone make you think any less. Some women have issues celebrating other women's successes. It's just a fact of life. Good for you! Weigh to go! -

I am scheduled for the sleeve January 19th. I only exercise occassionally now. 1x week maybe. How soon did you start to exercise post-op and if you did exercise how often and what was the intensity? TY!
