The classes are full of info on the do's & don'ts post op. So far we've covered Fiber & Protein. Laurie is great and is willing to answer any question you may have. I just need to knock these last two out! I just really want my date. Then I think I'll be cool' date=' but as for now I'm like a kid waiting on Christmas ![/quote']

Hello everyone' date=' I'm new to this site. I live in Richton Park. I just completed my 6 months with the nutritionist as BCBS requirements. I've met with my primary physician and notified him of my completion. Just waiting for my referral to the BCBS, then I hope and pray for the results of meeting with surgeon. I hope this process is not like the first 6 months.

I'm so glad I found this website, it feels good to speak with other people who are going through or uave gone through this journey. I have only told my mom and my sister. My sister had the lapband and is now going through the steps to get the sleeve. I cant wait I'm axcious to see the new me. I'm currently 243 and want to go fo around 150.

we can exchange notes about our upcoming schedules. Glad to see someone not to far from me is going through the journey as well. my son attends the community center in RP. It's a small world.

I would love that. I've told a few people which is shocking to me because I'm usually so private about my health, and so far everyone has been supportive. I'm 5'7 and 300lbs ... My goal would be between 150 - 175.

Just left my appointments. Laurie's was a group meeting and from now on the appointments will be individual. I will have to see her in one money and then three months. So today, we were put on soft foods ( anything you can cut with a fork) yay! Texture again, about 1 oz or so in fish, chicken, lunchmeat. Seafood,etc. and a couple of spoonfuls of a veggie. I can even have a cracker.

Dr. Hungness said that everything looks good and that I will need to see him in 3 months.

      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.
