!0 days! Finding myself being more and more hungry as my pre-op diet goes by, but looking foreward to my day!
My hubby keeps saying he hopes I'm making the right choice. He is a bit concerned that I won't keep the weight off and this will all have been a waste of time and money :-( But we talk daily about it. I've shared my heart. I am 50 with Two Pre-Teen boys, I NEED TO MAKE THIS CHANGE! The way I've been feeling, I won't be around for their weddings... Something HAS to change, that something is me.
I've already started the changes with my pre-op pshych and dr visits, finding the closest support group meetings and this pre-op diet. I'm On My Way!!!!!

I was told not to drink it because the caffeine dehydrates you. I tried decaf, but that's just not going to work! It's nasty!!! So I'm off of coffee completely... ???? Sent from my XT1565 using the BariatricPal App

Is there anything that surprised you?
50yearoldme posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I start my Pre-op 2 week diet this week. Surgery is February 17! My question is this, I know we've all prepared the best we can, by researching, talking and asking questions, but the thought just occoured to me that I haven't seen anyone say they were surprised by anything... After all your research, classes, phych visitis, prep... Was there anything that you thought you were ready for that turned out to be totally different or unexpected? Was there anything you wished you had know? -

Went to Sam's and picked up some Premier Protein! I've got like 3 different types of Protein powders that I'll be trying out to see what I like best. My doc has me starting my 2 week pre-op on Feb 2. 4 Protein shakes + 1 lean meat and 2 cups green veg at dinner. Driving myself to FL on the 16th for pre-op and surgery is Feb 17th! I'll be you tubing for encouragement to other "older" women! I'm 50 with two pre-teen boys! I'll post when I get one loaded -
Got Vanilla and Chocolate Premier Protien, in the tubs, at Sam's. Ready to start my pre-op next week! 23 days to surgery!

Daily food menu
50yearoldme replied to Nic Tads????'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Every surgeon has different guidlines for post surgery. I'm having mine on Feb 17th in FL. My surgeon has me on puree right away, progressing to solids in about 1 week. I will still need a minimum of 40 gr of protein in shakes daily for the first year. I found Premier Protein at Sam's for a good price! -

Help choosing a surgeon in MX
50yearoldme replied to snogueda's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
My husband and I found some very BAD stuff about Almanza, DO NOT use him! I spent quite a bit of time talking with @BillYanez at Bariatric Team Mexico, about Dr Illan. We decided to stay stateside, because I found a surgeon nearby that was affordable, but I would give Bill Yanez a call. They're very affordable and really cover all your bases. He was informative and easy to talk with. Very accomodating. -
