Sara checking in here. :( Really bad month. I had a complete unfill on the 22nd, and my DR wants me in for surgery this thursday to either repair or take out my band. I find out today is I am having surgery. The only reason it won't hapen will be because I got the crap beat out of me on sunday morning by my now ex boyfriend, and there was some swelling on my brain, so that may delay surgery some. I am not liking this year. LOL. I hope everyone met or exceeded their challenge goal this month!!!

Be strong, if he is abusing you now, he always will. Follow through with the restraining order. God Bless you Sara, I'm thinking of you and hope all goes well with your band and in your life.

Jaon, I have a slip. Well, we're 90% sure of it, but it has been such a hassel to get my upper gi done. I have no restriction and most of the time I can't keep anything down. I went to the er for an emergency upper gi, and they refused it. That dr is being reported to the medical board, and because of otehr thangs that have happened, my DR is just going to go ahead with teh surgery. He's been my dr from teh beginning, and I have had a slight slip in the past. I think it's a slip. I just have to take each day as it comes.

As for the now ex boyfriend, yes he is definitely an ex now. I have court in the morning for my temporary restraining order, and he's being charged with 3 felonies.

I'm so sorry you are going through all of this, Sara. Please let us know how you are doing with your surgery and recovery. You will definately be in my thoughts...

Just letting you all know, I had surgery yesterday. My Dr went in and unhooked my band, so I will be living bandless until my stomach heals up and I get insurance again. It's going to be a rough couple months. As for the ex, I have my restraining order, and he's still in jail. It was the first time he ever did anything like that, and I got out of there as soon as I could. I am following through with it, and the only time I ever plan on seeing him again is in court.

On another not, when I weighed in before surgery yesterday, i was holding steady at 193 which means by the Dr's scale I didn't gain any while I had no fill in my band, yay!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
