November 10th Iowa. I'd love to stay in touch. A support group with others in your same month or around was recommended.

I'm going to Mexico too. Nov 4th for me. Dr. Ariel Ortiz.

What is Isopure? I see it all around Instagram but have no clue what it truly is.

Coming soon, everyone!! I'm down 9lbs so far. I have 14 more to go before surgery.

Isopure is a brand of Protein Drink. They offer Ready-To-Drink (RTD) Protein Drinks that are considered to be 'clear' liquids due to their texture and consistency. They also offer Protein Powder that is flavored or unflavored that you can add to milk or milk substitutes to create a Protein drink. I haven't seen any other brand with as much protein in a serving. I bought the apple flavor (I can't remember the actual name of the flavor) green clear RTD and it has 40 grams of protein in one bottle.

Ty- I'll have to look into that. It's overwhelming how much there is to learn and remember!

      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.
