Keep up the great work and don't beat yourself up. Have you joined te group on Facebook called "BariatricEatingSupport"? They are a no nonsense group that I have found very helpful. They also have a website for Protein drinks Vitamins and thingsfor Constipation. I have struggled always with constipation and my Dr have me a supplement called super aloe 450 two weeks ago. You take it at night and you will have bowel movement the next day. I have had at least 1 or 2 a day since. I had tried everything previously. On a more personal note for me..I finally received the paperwork from Dr Snow's office so I can schedule an appt..yeah!!!

I haven't joined any support groups yet although I have tried to find a local group with no real results.

I hope your appointment goes well I have a followup on the 29th.

I haven't been on here in forever but wanted to post a quick update.

I'm down to 147 which I still find crazy my goal was 155.

I'm preparing to have a lower body lift and I'm hoping for some breast "work" but I still need to see a few more surgeons.
