Hello,

My name is Tracy and I am new to this site. There seems to be a lot of helpful information and caring people on here. I was going to get the Lap Band at first, as I was with another clinic and they upsold it. I found out they had an F from the BBB. I found Dr Welle and read more about him and his practice, I was impressed. I found out about the Sleeve from them, and went to talk with him yesterday and it seems like such a better choice for me (both the sleeve and his practice).

I am excited to start this new journey and since I am self-pay (my Cigna plan has no bariatric coverage), I will not have to wait long. About 2-3 weeks until surgery, depending on how fast I can get pre-op testing done.

I look forward to talking with you all and looking at the information on this site.

Good luck Tracy, we will probably be about the same time. I get my sleeve on 14 August in Brisbane Australia and start pre op Optifast diet today. I am very happy i chose to have a sleeve over a bad. Just too many negatves with a band for my liking. This is a great site as we are all going through the same thing. Keep us posted on your progress.

      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.
