Recommended Posts

I just called Bariatric Advantage 1-800-898-6888 and asked if they have any samples and they are sending me a gastric bypass sample kit and a Protein Powder sample for free and on their website the gb sample kit is $9.25 so im glad i called and got one free :)

Just got my book in the mail I ordered!! "Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery" been reading through it and its great so far. Over 140 low fat' date=' high Protein recipes. Goes week by week after ur surgery. What a great choice I made in getting this book. I was having abit of anxiety about foods when I'm post surgery. This helps!

I start it monday not looking forward to it

Same here! I start on Monday. How classically ironic huh? Start a liquid diet on April fool's day, which also happens to be a Monday ( I despise Mondays) and they are taking my coffee away too :-(

Which one? There are several with the same title and the one I found was by a lady with "lap band" surgery? Could you tell me the author?

Last weigh in went great. Got some questions answered. My information will be submitted by Friday, and the nurse told me to call them within a week to get them moving! Hopefully there won't be a delay, as my surgery is on the 22nd. Sorry for the delay in updating the surgery list. I haven't felt the greatest with pain and pain meds. Will do tomorrow! For all of you April 1st gals, it is soooooo close!

So do I!! This one has no pictures tho...and I generally prefer my recipe books to have pictures lol but since I'm on the liquid diet I'm glad there's no pictures lol I would like to get a few cookbooks aimed for ppl that have had WLS.

      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.
