We're on the same track. Do you know which surgery you're going for? I'm still weighing out both. Apart of me wants the sleeve but I have this fear that it might not work for me

I'm also newer to the process. I've completed an initial consultation, cardiologist visit (had stress test this week), and 2 of 6 nutrition appointments. I see the pulmonologist today. I also have a consultation with another surgeon in a couple of weeks. I want the sleeve. The first surgeon I met with suggested the duodenal switch, but I don't feel comfortable with the DS at all - he was ok with that.

Best wishes on your journey!

      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.
