Everyone find Cindy on facebook and she will add you to the group. It will be nice to have a common private meeting ground. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My doctor also does not require a pre op diet. I asked him about it bc I was also concerned. He said it doesn't make a difference surgery wise and it only makes the patients more stressed. He did however say do not go crazy and taper down 20%. (Whatever the heck 20% means) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My husband is taking a week off but I have 3 small children so he's really staying home to take care of them so I can take care of myself. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm going to check out this New whey Protein. I emailed my NUT today about Isopure & new whey liquid Proteins and she said the don't recommend Isopure bc it's a lot of calories. She didn't say anything about new whey so I guess that's ok. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

April 28th! New Jersey! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So I have a received a few invitations to family functions which will be taking place in the weeks post op. One baby shower will be about 2/3 weeks post op (if all goes well with insurance). I'm not telling everyone about my surgery. Just my husband, parents, sisters and one aunt. Extended family and friends I plan on not telling. So these parties may be during my liquids phase or mush phase. I'm Italian from New Jersey family functions are based around food. What excuse do I use for not eating at the party. I'm thinking maybe I'll just say I'm on one of those liquid shakes diets. I mean it's not really a lie its just not the complete truth lol anyone have any advice or been threw this?

How did you all feel at like a week and a half post op? I'm thinking I'm just going to respond no to one of the functions. I'll prob be recouping anyway. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

SarahSleeve you should have a chat with your husband that you really don't want him telling his mom bc you know it will spread around. Tell him in a non m-argumentative way. Some people don't even realize the way the come off. A girl I know just had the sleeve and her mother told the aunts. The aunt makes a comment "I thought she would have lost more weight by now" she had already lost 35 pounds 4 weeks out. It's like seriously. Who needs that. Now she regrets telling them but you can't take back once you've told. So I'm just like you only telling those who I need to help me with my little ones while I'm recovering. If someone needs to know I'm Recovering I think I'm going to say the hiatal hernia repair. Then once I loose the weight I'll just be saying how I've been busting my hump in the gym, eating smaller portions cutting out carbs and increasing my Protein intake. all of which will be true. Don't stress and don't let anyone else get in your head. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
