Congrats on the earlier date - try Unjury, it's mail order, but you'll need it for after surgery too and GNC has Isopure, clear liquid flavored Protein, w/40g of protein

Vitamin Shoppe online had muscle milk lite (powder) on sale like half price off and their delivery is usually 2-4 days. I love mixing it with milk 32g Protein for 10oz drink! Ill take it :)

EAS shakes from target are awesome. My favorite by far. The strawberry tastes like nestle quick strawberry. Today was 2nd day preop and easier today.

I definitely will. You do the same. By the way, I bought the chocolate Premier Protein shakes at Sam's, and I really liked it. Keep me posted on how you're doing :)

I like the premiere (prepared) Protein drinks......I'm not a big fan of vanilla in general, but it tasted good....and, of course, I like the chocolate....good luck!

Ok, so tomorrow is one week of this pre-op diet and I am down 9 lbs so far. Slow start but about a lb a day now. Fit into size 18 pants yesterday that I have not worn in over 2 years. Just about cried. Still cant believe this is really happening. My life is about to totally change and I am going to get me back again. I have felt like I lost who I was over the past 20 years. Now I get to find that girl again. So excited to spend the second half of my life in complete happiness with myself. Yay!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
