Anyone from South Florida



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am from south florida and will have my surgery with Paul Wizman on Aug 26th 15, I am very nervous because I have a previous scar (I dont have my spleen) where he will have to touch to go in, my other fear is that I heard that some doctors dont cut your stomach small enough and you still feel hungry. I know crazy...., but we all have some kind of fear!

Any one from south florida? Anyone with similar fears?

Thanks!

I am from South Florida Palm Beach County There is a group her on Bariatricpal from South Florida at this link

If approved my surgeon will be Dr Vaughan. I also have a few fears and will have to discuss them with him. The biggest one is that every one says walk as much as possible after surgery. I have to use 2 canes and can only walk for 2 minutes not sure that would be enough time for the gas to even begin to move out. Also I have a hernia above my belly button and am concerned as I believe an incision is made the the location of where my hernia is. Not sure how that is going to happen as the Dr didn't want to remove hernia until I lost almost all my weight. He said this kind of a hernia could come back.

      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.
