I had my surgery 10/10 and have finally started to figure outwhy i was haing this difficulty. Though i thought i was eating slow it wasnt slow enough. I actualy put my fork down now and wait a minute between bites. It has made a big difference -

My first week of pre op i decided to try small travel packs of different brands and hands down the Quest powder is my favorite! Blends easy and isnt too sweet. Salted caramel is my favorite Im going to bu the big tub on Amazon

I have been following this forum for a while now, but today was my first step in my new journey. I had my first appointment today with the Bariatric surgeon, and he said I am a great candidate for the sleeve. I have federal bcbs so I onlly have to do 3 classes and my scope is scheduled july 18th. After those results they submit to my insurance. Im sure I will have plenty of questions along the way but i am learning so much through this forum so thanks! My only concern is my BMI is 41 so i hate that im actually contemplating gaining 5lbs so im not so close to the cutoff. They said i can't lose any.

Weight submitted to insurance
