Newbie. Scheduled 4 June 15 anyone else?



Recommended Posts

Hi everybody. I am 35 and overweight (obviously). I am super excited about the new chapter I am about to begin. I am scheduled with Dr. ALmanza. I would love to hear from anyone who has went recently. I know he has been on vacation but any recent stories would be great!!

I am planning on doing Atkins for 2 weeks prior to surgery to make sure my liver is out of the way:001_tongue:

I have done it b4 very successfully but not long term so I feel good about that.

I cant wait to move my ticker down! I have struggled with it for years!

I am an RN in local ER, mother and wife. I love college football and cruises! Now I feel like im on a singles site:)

Anyway thanks for reading, hope to make many new friends!!!

Hi there and welcome!!! You will be sure to find lots of support here in these forums! I don't have a surgery date yet but it will be sometime in early June I think so I will let you know and we can be buddies and go through this together! I am using a doc here in Denver so can't help you out in that department but I've heard the name a lot so I'm sure plenty of others here have used him.

Wishing you all the best on your journey!

HI Sam and welcome

I'm in on June 10th.... and theres quite a few of us with dates for June, so you're likely to find one on the same day too.

I'm still waiting to hear what my pre op diet will be - I think the not knowing is worse!!

Good luck and keep us informed

Kathy

      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.
