Surgery tomorrow morning!



Recommended Posts

Well, I made it! For those who have not read my previous post I started this journey at 269 lbs and have tried many things to control my weight, some worked not for long but nothing stuck. I had four months of nutritionist appointments. I was required to do a psych evaluation due to my young age, as well as lab work and the usual. I started my pre op diet Jan 14th but I have made the neccesary changes to my eating habits before then.

I am now a whopping 239 as of today, lost two sizes in jeans, and all before my surgery. It has been hard, and I've learned a lot about myself. I thought I was confident before, I never knew how much my weight truly limited me in what I could do, I never thought I was an emotional eater.

All these things are challenges. It's just a wall I had to break down to get past, and I can proudly say I have thus far and I'm not tired yet.

Tomorrow morning at 9:30 all my hard work will be paid off and I will be recieving the lap band procedure. Wish me luck! I'll keep you updated!

If any pre oppers and people interested in lap band have any questions I will gladly assist. Also message me for support if you need it to help you get to that surgery date!

Good luck tomorrow! Just a suggestion - you should also post this is the Lap-Band Forum for pre-oppers (Lap-Band) that may have questions.

It is cooooold! Thankfully we are high 20s low 30s and the sun finally came out. I live north of Houston. So the sweeping arctic blast actually last minute swept to the east. Thankfully! Not as much ice as predicted but It tried!

And I'm not used to this, I'm used to the deadly summer weather haha

      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.
