I think and breathe this surgery all day



Recommended Posts

My Boyfriend says I'm obsessed. I read and post on 3 different support sites' date=' I watch YouTube videos, I'm reading Dr. Alvarez's book and have spoken to my "Sleeve Sister" in CA. We'll be traveling to Mexico, both alone, so we've gotten to know each other on the phone, so that we won't feel so alone once we get there. I'm scheduled for surgery on Aug 1st. It's just a little more then 3 weeks away. I've been to GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe and Chamberlin's (a natural food store in Orlando). I'm trying to find some single serving Protein options without buying a large quantity of something I won't like the taste of. I've ordered the chicken Soup mix and an unflavored Protein from unjury. My plan is to buy several bottles of Isopure in different flavors for first 7 days when I'll be on Clear liquids. I'm looking for low calorie, low sugar and carb choices. I've already purchased the Vitamins that Dr. Alvarez recommended (all chewable). I had to go to 5 drug stores to finally find the Gas X strips. I'm pretty sure the first few days they're more concerned with hydration then nutrition. I'm bringing some Crystal light drops with me and bullion cubes for the last night when I'll be at the Hotel. I don't think Airline Security would appreciate unlabeled powder in a zip lock baggie. Surgery is on Friday, I go home on Sunday evening... so I'll start my clear liquid Protein once I get home. I'm packing extremely light since my post op instructions say no lifting more then 5 pounds for the first week. My poor puppy weighs 8 pounds and I won't be able to pick her up when I get home. Hopefully I'll be able to keep her from jumping on my tummy. I imagine she'll be crazy happy to see me when I get home. Kaity, my dog, and climbing in and out of my Miata are my biggest concerns. Sitting in my car is like sitting on the floor and climbing in and out of it may be tricky with my healing incisions. Yeah.... I've been just a little obsessed.[/quote']

I'm in Orlando too!!! My date is Augusr 2nd in celebration. :-) we can be buddies

      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.
