BarbaraNebe 1 Posted August 26, 2012 I'm on my 6th today with 4 Protein Shakes a day. It's very hard. But I'm reading a great book, The Emotional First Aid Kit: A practical guide to life after bariatric surgery, by Cynthia Alexander. The book is really awesome in that it focuses on the main weapon in your arsenal for weight loss - Your Mind. It was recommended by my Psychologist and has really been a great help in helping me shift to the most significant part of all of this, permenant lifestyle changes. My surgery is on Sept 4th and I want to be prepared mind, body and soul. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cheated yesterday and it actually helped me. My husband only had to do 1 week when he did gastric bypass. I'm with Dr Kim too. Did you already have your EGD in prep for the surgery on 9/4.
