Hey everyone, Im new here and finally decided it was time to post after trolling here for a couple of months.Got my surgery date last week which is June 30, and just got a call from insurance company saying I was approved!! Im very excited and cant wait to start my new journey.Just a little about myself, lm a 43 year old male 6'0", sw-336, cw-317, gw-170.My wife is doing it also and her surgery date is July 7, so its going to be an interesting summer to say the least! One question I do have is has any other couples had it at the same time and how did it work out gor you? Thanks to everyone who posts here and shares their experiences with us newbies, its been a wealth of info!!!

Welcome!

There are a number of couples here who are taking their sleeve journey together or at staggered times, so I suspect you'll get input on that in the near future.

Please jump right in into the conversational fray around here. There's plenty of great information and advice to be had from a variety of perspectives.

Don't be alarmed if you run across a spat here and there. Like any big family, there can be passionate disagreements about the things we care about, but we're all there for each other when help, support, sympathy and cheers are needed.

Good luck on the upcoming surgery!

      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...

        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.
