  1. Hi Giginc. I have not been asked for a letter like this.
  2. I am feeling much better about this already. Fingers crossed that the Uber driver shows up on time the morning of surgery. It can be a terrible commute into Houston.

    Fairlife protein shakes are my favorite!
  4. Congrats to all my October buddies. My surgery date is October 3rd. I started my pre-op liquid diet yesterday and it seems surprisingly easy. I do wonder how I will feel about it next week though. I am isolated in my daily life. I am over 50, single with no kids at home or nearby, I work from home and live in a suburban area that is mostly made up of families and traveling plant workers and I don't know anyone - no support system in place. Who else is going through this completely alone? I am arranging paid transportation to the med center and a paid medical transport to bring me home following the procedure. For those of you who have had to go through this by yourself, did you feel able to manage alone post-op? What was the most difficult thing?

    Regrets...anyone?

    I'm sorry she's had such a difficult time.

    Regrets...anyone?

    I just had my first consultation and I'm considering the gastric sleeve. I need to lose 80-100 lbs
  8. To those who are beyond immediate post-op. Is there anyone here who wishes you had never undergone bariatric surgery?
