To all of you who had surgery in the past couple of weeks best of luck to all of you. you have made the best choice to get to your goal weight.

Im not going to lie to you, its tough at first but as anyone will tell you Sip all the fluids you can stand. get in protien by whatever source you can. walk your butts off it helps ease the paint and starts you off on the exercise train.

If something/you does not feel right CALL YOUR SURGEON!!!

But it will start paying off soon, dont cheat!!! exercise and hit your daily numbers.

oh and my advise put the bathroom.scale in the closet. your body will vary daily between 2 to 3 lbs based on.alot of factors.. dont dive yourself crazy!!!! weight yourself once a week or bi-weekly. remember its just a number. judge your progress on how you feel and how your cloths fit.

I wish all of you the best health and a speedy recovery.

RJ

I understand, I can't stand the Isopure. I finally found a Protein Drink that I like, not too heavy or sweet. It is called premier protein- found it at SAMs club, I'm sure you can order online. It has 30g of Protein And low sugar and carbs. You may want tot try that!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
