Hey y'all. I was wondering if we had anyone from New Orleans in the group. I'm looking to start a meet up for local sleevers. If you interested let me know.

Hi KajunGumbo! That's great! I'm 15 days post op and have lost 15 pounds; 22 since pre- op meeting. I think I had a real easy time compared to some folks. Really glad I did it. Message me anytime!

How much are you eating? Are you handling solids?

I am on soft foods now. You kind of learn how much you can handle pretty quick. Your body has a definite signal, like a catch in your chest, that says you can't eat another bite. I can get about six regular bites, more if you take little tiny ones. Doing great, but kind of overdid last two days taking kids to parades and going out to lunch with friends. Overall, really happy I did this. How are you today??

Completed my preop @ hospital yesterday, heading to Disney for MardiGras until Wednesday. Caught several parades last weekend & last night, that's enough lol

      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.
