Hi All,

I'm attending a seminar on the 21st on the sleeve. Is anyone at this point? I'm scared because it's a huge life change. Also, silly things run through my head like... how will I know if I'm eating slow enough? I'm so afraid of getting sick. Also, I always pictured my wedding with champagne. I'm reading up and I know that's a big no no! I don't want to be in pain! Can anyone help with these questions? Thanks!!!

Hi Dawn!

The seminar my husband and I attended was very helpful, informative, and enjoyable. All of our initial questions were answered and even ones we hadn't thought about were discussed as well.

I hope your experience is as positive!

My husband was sleeved two months ago and says learning to pay attention to his body's cues has been a major factor in his loss of 50+ pounds.

I am excited to get sleeved by Christmas and look forward to all the help and support on this site.

Wishing you all the best and look forward to sharing in this journey. ☺

I was so nervous when I was attending my seminar. I was acting like I was about go to surgery that day! Lol it was very informative and felt comfortable to commit to getting it done. Now I'm almost done with my requirements for my insurance. So it may be August or September when I have the surgery. Now the nerves
are back! Lol

Wish you the best of luck!

      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.
