Glad your surgery went well. I was sleeved in 2011 and still loving my sleeve and my choice to take control. Not from Las Vegas , but this forum is a great site for questions, thoughts and encouragement. Stay tuned in .. it will help you. You'll see there are many others in your same position. Don't rush your food phases and you'll do great. Stay strong.

Does anyone have pain in their left shoulder still from the gas used to expand your tummy during surgery ?? It hurts :( I know walking is suppose to take care of it but it ain't working for me .. Dr told me today not to worry about it , so cool seeing these posts from people a year or more out , living normal lives , it seems so far away yet soooooo close ... I'm ready

To be honest with you I only had problems with the gas for about 3 days post op but peppermint tea or gripe Water (normally for babies) is supposed to help a lot. Good luck x

      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.
