    Thank you. What kind of deli meat do you buy? I can eat boiled eggs but scrambled make me very sick since I had my surgery. Do you mind sharing what high protein snacks you eat? Thank you Thank you.

    November sleevers?

    Friday, December 16, 2016 I was 4 weeks post op VSG. I have lost 31lbs. I feel great and I am walking. Sleeping on my stomach again. I eat most any healthy food I want but since surgery I can not eat eggs or cereal in milk. I have joined the gym and will start working out the week after Christmas. I am still having a time with constipation. Twice a week I am now having to take a dulcolax and every day I chew a fiber. If anyone is thinking about having sleeve procedure it is the best thing I ever did. Will keep you posted. When I reach 6 months I will post pics.
  10. Proud of you. Just shows you are strong and what u set your mine too you can do. Wish you the best
  11. Thank you Ginsin007 and Dknal2. It is work in progress but I feel so much better. Just trying to get my energy back.

    Best place in Mexico?

    I went Obesity Goodbye and had Dr. Verboone as my surgeron. Great experience. I am on my flight back home now and had surgery Friday. A little sore but no pain.
  14. Flew to Tijuana on Thursday, November 17 and had surgery on Friday, November 18th. I am flying home on Sunday, November 20th. Everything went great the first night after surgery and the day after were the worse with pain and gas pain. Going home today and pain is not bad. The blue liquid you have to drink for test and the clear liquid for second test is nasty. You will do fine.

    Had my sleeve surgery yesterday at 5:00pm Mexico time. At first I thought I had made a mistake because the pain was so bad. Today it is not as bad, still have drain in and it will be removed tomorrow. I have a 6 hour flight home tomorrow after fluor test. I have had nothing by mouth since 9:30 Thursday night. I will get ice chips today and I am looking forward to that. Gas-x strip have helped with gas pain. I have been walking off and on since 4 hours after surgery.

  23. I am scheduled for my sleeve on November 18th. I currently on my preop diet which consist of sf Jello, broth, Water, and Protein shakes. I purchased the Premier strawberry Cream already made shakes but they taste chalky with a sweet taste. I am wondering what other people have tried and liked for Protein Shakes or ideas to make them taste better. Sleeve November 18th
