Hi Ladies...my name is Valarie and I live in Old Bridge NJ. I am 10 months in for my gastric bypass. My start weight was 242 pds. I am now 174 pds. Wearing sz. 8's...mediums, some smalls. Would like to get to 150...although I may look sickly at that weight. I am fearful of gaining my weight back because I'm not doing the right things. I exercise but my eating is slowly returning to the old ways. I know the right things to do...don't want to do them...if I gain this weight back I will b soo ashamed of myself. God blessed me with this tool...I have to figure out a way to respect this gift. Soo many people are not fortunate to have the surgery like we are. Just needed to call myself out where I am. Blessings on the new baby and your journeys...I'd like to stay in touch

Jersey guy here. Northern Jersey. I had gastric bypass on 7/10/17. Doing really well. Lost 37 lbs. since surgery, 75 lbs. since 2/17. Feeling great, off reflux meds, going to cardiologist to get off BP meds. Good luck to all in this incredible journey that will be well worth it in the long run.

      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.
