I had my gastric bypass surgery 3 months ago and was just wondering if anyone else had the fobi ring fitted?

What's a fobi ring?

Sweet

It's a silicone ring they put at the opening of your stomach to stop ur stomach stretching back at a later date, i paid more money to have it fitted x

Wow! I would have liked to get that.

Yer, apparently the normal gastric bypass has a success rate of about 70% and a fobi pouch has 90%

      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.
