Venting about my husband
New&Improved replied to BlueAngelEyes's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It's common that you notice things more after surgery and completely changing your life. You spent so many years stuck in a rut with him and now you know you deserve better. You deserve more respect. You deserve someonewho appreciates you and someone who wants to better themselves. You are changing your life and your kids lives yet your husband is stuck in a negative pattern. You are finally embracing your future and everyday you are living while your husband is barely existing. You feel why should you have to put up with him after everything you've done for him over the years. He can't even say thank you?!? Or even take the effort to shower for you? -

Anyone try bulletproof collagen protein
New&Improved replied to Sosewsue61's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
All you need is whey protein, don't believe the hype about all natural bla bla unless you're prepared to pay double for minimal differences My surgeon even said only people who harp on about pure isolate are gym junkies. Regular whey protein has all the amino acids and stuff that is needed to repair muscles. -

Is it possible to lose weight just from protein shakes and VLCD???
New&Improved posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm just curious for those who had preop diets that was just shakes and liquids? Were you able to lose weight easily or did you need to include some physical activity as well If I chose 3 shakes a day I'll be looking around 500kcal a day and 80-90g protein, that is if I can manage to be satisfied just with protein shakes.. If you want to share how many weeks diet preop and how many shakes a day? I've got plenty of powder to mix up so that's not an issue!! Getting closer to surgery so curious tnx -
Just diet and exercise. WOW! Never considered that.
New&Improved replied to mousecat88's topic in Rants & Raves
It's definitely not an easy option most people go through months of tests and evaluations before even getting a surgery date! -
I dislike it also but to make the time fly I watch a movie or two while on the bike 😀

I know a few girls who had surgery at 18... They wanted a better life for themselves before they went to university

New&Improved replied to KimTrim's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
