Starbucks drinks
Michelle Ery replied to Mytimenow17's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I get 4 shots espresso in large cup filled with ice. Pour 11oz protein drink over it. I use ready made premier protein. I like caramel. Michelle Post op revision band to bypass 9-28-17 Sw 276 Day of surgery 252 Cw 248 Goal Healthy BMI 154. -

I use a straw. It really helps me. I told my MD and he said as long as it doesn’t increase gas in stomach and cause pain it’s fine. Michelle Post op revision band to bypass 9-28-17 Sw 276 Day of surgery 252 Cw 248 Goal Healthy BMI 154. -

Any meat as long as it's moist. If it's dry use salad dressing or mayo Michelle Post op revision band to bypass 9-28-17 Sw 276 Day of surgery 252 Cw 248 Goal Healthy BMI 154.

Gastric sleeve to bypass revision
Michelle Ery replied to volsfan17's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Do you know why your experiencing stomach pain. Do you have a lot of weight to lose. Requirements were similar to when I had lap band in 2011. Michelle Post op revision band to bypass 9-28-17 Sw 276 Day of surgery 252 Cw 248 Goal Healthy BMI 154. -
Gastric sleeve to bypass revision
Michelle Ery replied to volsfan17's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Hi from NC, i had lap band to RNY bypass 14 days ago. I'm here if you have any questions. I had lots of complications with my lap band and vomited daily. The RNY bypass is way different so far. No issues or complications yet. -
I had a lap band to RNY revision on 9-28. my story is similar to yours with the lap band. The RNY is very different. It's not the same feeling. I would do it all over again. My wait was 4 month from start to revision. I was 252 on surgery date and I'm 242 today. Best of luck.

I know I was shocked. Fingers crossed..

Left hip pain and down 60 lbs - advice please
Michelle Ery replied to blev's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Also, as you lose weight we move and walk differently using muscles we have not previously used which can also cause more pain. Michelle Post op revision band to bypass 9-28-17 Sw 276 Day of surgery 252 Cw 248 Goal Healthy BMI 154. -
what to buy for preop
Michelle Ery replied to jchilion2589's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Each surgeon has different requirements. I had 13 days of 3 protein shakes and two lean cuisines a day. Last day I was on clear liquids and bowel prep. -
I also buy them at Costco or Sams in the large case.

I drink premier protein drinks. 30 grams protein per drink and best tasting by far.

Insurance approval and 2week pre op diet
Michelle Ery posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hello all, I had lap band surgery almost exactly 6 years ago. Initially weight loss was decent but I've had issues with the band since day one. I pb or vomit almost every meal. I have no fluid in the band and regained all the weight I originally lost. I started the revision process late April. I got approved by BCBS for gastric bypass last Friday. Surgery date Aug 28th. Pre op diet starting today. Wish me luck. I'm excited. Anyone else having a revision around the same time? Michelle Pre-op revision band to bypass Starting weight 275 Healthy BMI 154. Surgery date Aug 28th -
My pre op diet has been 2 meals and 3 shakes a day, I just have to have clear liquids the day before surgery which is Sunday.
