  1. My reasons for being overweight are many: Genetics, poor eating habits, fast food, and sweets. Once I retired I gained even more because I wasn't doing much which let to depression. I got help for depression and finally started feeling better. My health has suffered from my weight so I knew it was time for a change. Being a yo yo dieter I knew that I had to stop and get help. thus I decided to get WLS. I have surgery in 7 days on 9/11.

    what to buy for preop

    I am on week two of pre-op diet. I don't like this diet at all. Its 3 protein shakes a day and only sugar free jello or Popsicle. I get hungry a lot. I do wonder if my hunger is from my brain versus my stomach. I'm a week out for surgery (9/11) and I'm just really anxious. I hope this week goes fast.

    Hello September bypass buddies, It's one week from tomorrow that I have surgery (9/11). I know some of you are having surgery this week. So, I wish you the best of luck. I'm also getting very nervous so I am trying to keep myself busy. I look forward to hearing you all after your surgeries. Cheers,

    Hello Fellow September bypass buddies, I love the caramel and bananas and cream of the Premier Protein. The chocolate is a favorite too. I am on day 4 of pre-op diet and I am finally starting to feel better.

    I am doing the liquid diet for surgery 9/11. It is not easy but I am getting used to it.

    Help, Please.

    I have to go to decaf. I hope it tastes the same.
  15. I started my pre-op diet today and I feel terrible. Has anyone else had that trouble? Any suggestions would be great.

    Help, Please.

    @Elise24, Just keep doing what you are doing. The weight will come so don't get discouraged. I know that is easier said than done.

    Premier Protein!

    The protein powder should be with more than 20 grams of protein and very low sugar like 1 gram,

    I started my pre op diet yesterday but I cheated last night. So I am doing better today and I will stay strong. This part is not fun.

    I started my pre-op liquid diet today instead of Monday because I was ready to start. I am finding my tough times and I am making a list of things I can do instead of eat.

    Hi @monica8773 , My surgery is 9/11 and I start my pre-op diet on 8/28. I have tried premier protein, Click protein powder, Bariartic Pal fusion powder and Medifast powder. My surgeon has me taking premier protein and I do like it. Hope this gives you an idea of different protein powders out there.
  21. 08/24/17 Good Afternoon, I'm having a panic attack over my surgery. I just found out that I have to check in at 6 am in San Francisco which means we have to leave here by 4:40 am. My husband will drive me down but he won't stay with me because he hates hospitals. His first wife diet from heart complications in 2006 and he just can;t be in hospitals for long now. So, I will be alone before my surgery which has got me upset. I will be in the hospital for 3 days with no one to come see me because I am so far away. No one can drive down to see me because all my friends and my brother are working. I'am just feeling lost today and I have no where else I can express my feelings. Thanks for letting me vent.
  22. Thanks just got Bariatric Pal working on cell phone

    @zleng I understand the fears because I am very scared too. My surgery isn't until 9/11. I find that writing in this forum really helps. Good luck,
  24. Getting counseling will be of great benefit to you after surgery. the surgery fixes the body but not the mind. I am in counseling also, I find it really helps me stay grounded. Good Luck
