    Protein, hmmm

    From what I can gather you can use nutritional yeast and there are drinks that aren't shakes like IsoPure that are protein heavy.

    I think most are concerned after surgery since you really can't have solid foods for a good 4 weeks and the 2 week liquid diet before. I've also seen where you just aren't eating a whole lot to measure up to 60g of protein a day. Since 1oz is only 7g of protein I can see the difficulty if you aren't eating that much.

    Body jewelry....

    In previous surgeries I could replace them with a plastic retainer I'm asking my Dr tomorrow if that would be possible. I too have some that i don't want to have to get redone.

    Thanks!! I'm trying to wrap my head around the idea of the sleeve over the band. I think with the band my brain thought it would still have some control and the sleeve it has none. It will be interesting to see what the Dr says. The more I read the forums the more I'm becoming comfortable with the sleeve. Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App

    Yes I have been in treatment and still talk to my therapist when needed. My surgeon seemed slightly shocked I admitted the BED evidently most keep that to themselves. My phyc eval cleared me for surgery.
