Hello everyone,

I started my ProCare Bariatric chewable dietary supplement this morning. It's once daily. I have been taking 3 huge capsules daily. My NUT suggested I try the chewable. My taste bugs gave their opinion, disgusting. Thankfully I only have a months supply. I can't imagine trying to get one of these things down my throat after surgery. What are you using?

Have you tried the zucchini noodles? Do you like them? Is purchasing one of the gadgets worth it? I have a really small kitchen that is already full. Lol

OK guys you may want to end here. Next is bras ;)

I don't remember seeing the topic about how quickly your bra size changed? I'm a 42 C. I purchase good quality bras. I get sticker shock every year when I buy replacements. I'm just wondering what you experienced? I was a 32 B back in the day. Bob's got bigger as I got bigger.

Oh and I weighed in this morning at 226 :) I have a nutritionist and psychologist phone appointments in November. If I get the clearance from them I'll have my surgery early December. Surgery goal weight required is 227. I'm getting closer :)

I take Bariatric Advantage not perfect in taste but more imporant they don't make me sick. Your taste buds will change after surgery so don't buy too much of anything.

As far as bras I had to buy at 3 months, 5 months and 7 months. I was also a 32B back in tbe day, A 42D at my biggest, now a 36D and I basically roll what I have left and stuff em in, lol. Just try to find your bras on sale and don't buy a bunch because you will only wear a short time

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
