Any gastric bypass buddies in New York?



Recommended Posts

Anyone in central New York area? I'm near Rochester and would love to chat with some people going through everything I am.

I just had surgery June 8th, and while I'm doing really well, it can get really overwhelming at times. I'd love to hear how others are doing and what's helping them get through!

I'm in Syracuse! It's pretty rough at the beginning, but it gets easier for sure. I'm 11 months out.

I got moved to pureed food this week, which has helped a little bit. But I just want to eat normal food. I'm not looking to eat unhealthy, snack foods etc. I literally just want to eat real foods, and feel normal again. And I'm still in some pain, so other than taking short walks throughout the day, I haven't been able to do a ton. I guess I'm not very patient haha

      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.
