This is such a tough place to be. From my research, less than 1% have complications. You have worked hard to get this far and the time is here.......Write down on a piece of paper the pro's and con's of having this procedure.....Everyone pretty much feels this right before surgery and many of us continue on and "JUST DO IT." My bariatric surgeon saids this is a safe proprcedure. So I wish you the best and hope to hear how your doing or if you decided to put it off..... :)

No, I'm not going to put it off. I'm all in now, just nervous with the "what ifs". Hopefully this time tomorrow I'll be up walking and getting acquainted with my smaller stomach!!! Wish me luck everybody and I wouldn't turn away a prayer either!!!!

I agree with Ms Skinniness! IF you have a problem with the what ifs...then just think about the what if I donts! :) You are doing something GREAT for you. Hang in there. I wish I was going in, but still have 2 months to wait. ugh.

You will do great!

Try and relax. I had my sleeve done on Monday and everything went fine. I had alot of pain but once I was given the pain medication, I was ok. I came home yesterday afternoon. THe pain is much better than when I was in the hospital. I havent had too much nausea. I almost have 35 grams of Protein in me and the day is still young. Just do what your doctor says to do and you should be fine. :)

      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.
