Never seen these before. Can they only be purchased online? Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you for the info! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

I've actually never been to Superior Merchandise. Not looking for a SO but I may have to just check it out because from what you said it sounds nice! I'm assuming original OP lives in our area? I've been to a few of the "meet ups" in the area and they were nice. There's a lot in the capital region. I agree that the way to go is online dating though. That's where you're going to find the most single people. There really isn't anything good in Troy, except for some bars. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol. I like to people watch at the rocking on the river concerts. IMO, you're not going to find anyone worthwhile there. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

I agree with the plantar fasciitis comment. Cortisone shot should help relieve the pain in no time. I would wait until after the surgery though. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Ah, I will also have to have a drain unfortunately. A little tip I was told by my ex (who also had the surgery) is to clip the drain to a lanyard while you shower. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hey! I'm curious as to where you bought that organic chicken bone broth? It looks good! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Awesome! Congrats on your success! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh wow! 456 to 183 is amazing! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

That's the right attitude! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

October is around the corner everyone! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Awww. I'm sorry that you had a terrible time in the hospital but it sounds like you're on the mend! Things will just keep getting better! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol aka "fun" Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

I always love reading what you write on here! You seem like such a fun and loving person! Thank you for sharing your experience with me. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you both! Sometimes I just need someone to talk some sense in to me. General anxiety disorder is the worst. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

October 2nd here! Not freaking out about the life after surgery, just freaking our about surgery itself! Lol always something Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi all, My surgery is is 12 days and I have been slowly getting myself ready for post-op life. I have bought a food processor, water bottles, and a heating pad. As the day gets closer I'd like to buy some protein, soups, etc. Anything else you guys suggest? I will not not be cleared to drive until 8 days after my surgery and will only have someone with me for 4 of those days, so I feel like I need stock up on things now. Thank you!

Also will be having a drain that will be kept in for a week. I heard the drain itself is not too bad but getting it taken out is a bit of a doozy. My mom compared it to "getting a band-aid ripped off but it's on the inside". Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Yeah, like I don't want to over buy but I'm also too much of a control freak/over planner to not buy stuff. I'm hoping if there is any stuff I wind up don't using i can give it to a family member or friend. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

@CrankyMagpie Thank you for taking the time out to put together this list!
