Hey there September sleevers! Any one out there?



Recommended Posts

Unjury has 2 chocolate flavors. One of them tastes like cake batter (too sweet), the other one is fine. But now I can't remember which is which! I swear I need to start a spreadsheet of all of this so I don't forget!! My husband has been in the hospital for a week, so my brain's a little fried.

It looks like his surgery is postponed indefinitely. I'm still hoping for August, though I still haven't heard from my surgeon's scheduler. It's ridiculous that we submitted for approval a month ago and received approval 2 weeks ago, and they still haven't scheduled.

Hope your hubby is ok!

Been mixing the Unjury Protein mix with sf fat free vanilla pudding. Really thick, but tasty. Also been taking the unjury Vitamins. Really big and nasty aftertaste, but no problem

which flavor? I was going to try the Bariatric Advantage ones, they've gotten good reviews. I will keep you posted.

I am also a September sleever. Tentative date is September 10. I have had to surgeon visits, 1 nutrition and 1 psch eval. I am presently waiting to hear that surgery has been approved by insurance company. Waiting to make appointments for cardiac and primary doctor clearances. In the meantime, I have been doing lots and lots of research on the sleeve in the hope that I will be prepared for what is ahead. I am glad to have this forum as I find that many of my questions are being answered. I know that I will be visiting this site daily as it is very informative on all the steps before and after surgery. I am looking forward to talking to all of you and I wish you all good luck!

Oops...the unflavored can be put in just about anything. Yogurt, any type of juice/crystal light/flavored Water, broth, Soup, etc. They have recipes on Unjury.com for popcyxle a and Protein Jello.< /p>

I am hoping to have surgery at the end of September. I go for my first appointment on July 13th.

I work at the hospital & I do the pre-authorizations for bariatric/plastic cases so I already know what I have to do to get my insurance to pay for it. Lucky me, my hospital & my insurance have an agreement so as long as my BMI is over 40, they will cover the cost at 100%.

Good luck!

I am scared, nervous, & not sure. But I am tired of being overweight.

I'm scheduled for September 14th! I'm a band revision and just had it removed this past Monday, 5 years to the day I had it put it. Recovering well and ready for September to get here. My dr. requires a three month healing time between the procedures so wanted to do it the safest way. Im always looking for buddies!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
