2 week pre-op diet with Unjury or genepro
Andi07 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey guys. So I get migraines from stevia, truvia, aspartame, Splenda (sucralose) etc. I can't do the usual Protein prowders or shakes since the majority contain those sugars. I'm going to try GENEPRO (3 tbsp per my nurse) and unflavored unjury for the next 2 weeks. I'm thinking of doing genepro/Unjury shakes/smoothies (with low fat Greek yogurt), slushies, broth (flavored with ms. Dash) or flavored broth. Any other ideas on how to switch it up? Thanks in advance! -

Prepping your skin for weight loss surgery
Andi07 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey y'all! I'm about a month out from my tentative surgery date so I'm trying to prepare myself in every way possible. What are you guys doing to help your skin and minimize skin sagging after surgery? I've upped my Water intake, trying to get lots of Protein in and taking a Multivitamin. Right now, I'm using a Shea butter lotion but I think I'm doing to add vit e oil and bio oil to it. I've also peeped a Keratin lotion on Amazon that I'm thinking about incorporating too. If any of you are experienced and have had some success in reducing the amount of skin sag, please inform the rest of us Pre surgery friends: what's your plan for battling skin sag? -

Prepping your skin for weight loss surgery
Andi07 replied to Andi07's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the tips! I hurried and googled it and am going to order a brush soon or go by sally's and buy one. Where are you going to have your chemical peels or are you doing them at home yourself? My facial chemical peels I get from makeup artists choice so ill have to see what they have for the body -

Thanks every one for chiming in. I truly appreciate it. I'm going to look into this dry brushing method too. Any tips for that? -

Boom! That's what I'm talking about! Even if it doesn't work or help, I'll know without a shadow of a doubt, that I did everything I could to help alleviate the issue. I'm going to look into that Jergens lotion. Thanks! I've had two kids and my skin bounced back each time, with minimal stretch marks, so I'm hoping that all will be well. Putting out positive vibes for little to no skin sag! -
