I'm having doubts lately about having surgery. There is nobody that is talking me out of it except myself. Since march I have lost over 20 lbs on my own. I'm doing it for myself' date=' by myself. Know the surgery would work but I don't know if I'm at the point in my life where I can go through with it. With these doubts I will not undergo surgery. I will however finish all my preop requirements so that if I change my mind in the near future I'll be able to get it done. I wish you all the best. Thank you for being there for me, and for each other.[/quote']

Good decision. If I could've persevered on my own I would have. I don't know your weight or weight goal but people do it all of the time without bypass...I'm just not one of them. I'm so happy that your 6 month pre authorization stage is working for you. Congrats and best wishes! Hope you stick around and continue to be an encouragement to others:)

To all who don't have a support system. I would do it anyways for yourself. I could've have my surgery in 2008 but I didn't because I had no real support system. Now 2012 regretting it and much heavier. So starting my program all over and doing it this time. Also now all these years later they wanna support me. I could have be at my goal and happy. Never let anyone regardless stop you yourself from being completely happy.

I think you are making the right decision. People should have surgery when they feel ready. You can get a dietician that will help you lose weight,and I think you will do just fine if you lost 20pounds with out any problem.

I'm not trying to talk you out of it but if I knew then what I know now I would not do it.....and I've decided that my husband can not do it!

There should be a love button :)

Everybody is different . Some people regret the surgery . The surgery was a must for me . The complications from obesity are WAY WORSE then the surgery. Do what your gut feels!!! Thank god I'm doing great and I'm very very happy with my choice !!!

      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.
