Hello All

Im Ed. Im having my gastric sleeve surgery this Tuesday 4/29. Made it through the 2 week pre op phase better than I expected. I thought it would be tougher but I followed it like the Dr said to. I guess at this point im a bit nervous about the surgery and thinking the worst about the pain and potential complications. this forum has been very informative thus far.

Hey, good for you Easnj Ed! The preop was/is tough, and we have the same surgery day. So far so good--and as for worries, I figure worrying about potential pain just sort of starts it early. I know there'll be SOME pain, now just hoping for not too bad. Thinking positive and taking care to stay on track for this. Hope all goes well for you Tuesday!

I am officially Sleeved! Other than my blood pressure being a little high after surgery, no complications. The pain and nausea are tolerable. I am hoping all of you who were sleeved today ate doing well

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
