*** TITLE SHOULD READ SEMINAR NOT SENIOR***

So, I guess I am going to actually do this! After a lot of thought and research on what to expect, I know that if I want to live to grow old, this is probably my best option and I have made the decision to get the sleeve surgery done. If I continue at my current rate, and on my current mindset about food, I will be dead with 10 years. Adult onset type 2 diabetes, SEVERE sleep apnea, and just not being able to do the things in life that I want to do has made me understand that I need to change my life, my lifestyle and my way of thinking about food.

Having said all of that, I will be attending the seminar this Saturday at Atlanta Medical Center. Im a little nervous bout the whole thing, but I can't wait to start a NEW life!

Good for you!! You'll be amazed about how much you learn in the seminar! I know I was! After I attended my first seminar I was hooked on trying to gather as much research as possible! And Bariatricpal.com is a really good resource! You'll find that everyone here are always willing to help answer any questions you may have! Good luck to you on your journey!

Best Wishes! After over a year of sitting on that fence-undecided, making that decision to move forward was major relief! Now getting all of my ducks-in-a-row to schedule surgery is making me a little anxious. I am an event planner and not having as much control as I would like planning this major event is making me crazy! UGH

      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.
