I have officialy been sleeved!



Recommended Posts

I'm going to keep things short and sweet because I go in out of being awake to being asleep. My surgery was yesterday on 4/9/13 in South Mississippi. Dr. Avara is my surgeon and he did a wonderful job with my surgery and aftercare!! I'm experiencing discomfort but mostly I'm doing well! I don't regret, the time, effort or energy that has been put into this journey! My life was at stake without this procedure so I chose life! I would like to scream a big thanks to all of my previous, present and further VST forum supporters!

I just want to report my 10lb weight loss! I'm a week out today! I'm so happy that I took this step in the right direction for my health.

How are you feeling, are you back at work?

Im feeling pretty good. My incisions are healing well. I'm no longer in need of pain meds. I must admit I'm tired, which I think is because I'm not taking my Vitamins correctly all of the time. I haven't gone back to work yet. I was fortunate enough to take the entire month off! Thanks for checking on me @Ir983286!

      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.
