No totally not weird. I am big on teeth too, I can't date someone who has horrible nasty teeth specially if they are missing some where you can see?

They are having me drink boost, but if we find alternatives that are equivalent in nutrition facts then they are ok. You are wanting a Meal Replacement drink for the pre op diet not just a Protein shake.. Ask your doc if there are alternatives?

I found my favorite strawberry and Cream from costco, it's Premier Protein shakes. But it's thinner then most pre made drinks I've tried... Well stocked up on protein! Hoping not to lose lots of hair!

Hey Shannon, you want something that is even better for your hair? I am a distributor for itworks global, and my website is www.tightenwithtinapolley.myitworks.com and there is a product on there that is amazing for your hair but also your skin and nails it's called Hair skin and nails. I also have other products on there that are great for other things like there is body wraps so when your losing the weight you can use these to help tighten and tone your skin so you don't have so much loose skin, they have an energy drink that helps you get all your vegetables for a day in one 8 oz glass of Water. Thing with all these products is that they are all natural too. Check out my website and if you have any questions email me, I will help in anything I can. Thanks and good luck!!!

yeah they are great products and i plan to add them to my post surgery use. I know it's going to be hard to get all my Vitamins in during the day due to the amount I will be able to eat so i figure this will be the best way and as for the other products I fully plan to use the wraps as I lose the weight it will help tighten the extra skin and then also some of the other products. I know a friend of mine that used the hair skin and nails and in 2 weeks her hair grew like 2 inches. its amazing that is why I plan to use it cause I just cut my hair really short and I like it but really miss my long hair so I am going to let it grow out and so I figure if I use that then it will help, I have used Biotin in the past and it didn't help that much? So we will see!!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
