sweetm 0 Posted April 9, 2018 Hello! I was sleeved in Aug 2011. Lost 100lbs and then gained 30. Scheduled for a mini bypass April 24. Doing a 4 week pre op diet. Loved my sleeve, just not losing anymore.... no problems with my sleeve, but if I ever ate too much, I’d sneeze like crazy. Weird right? Hoping I don’t have any acid reflux or issues with my bypass. Pretty nervous. My liquid pre op is going great...realize I’m not physically hungry but mentally hungry. Anyway...best of luck with your decision on a bypass. I have a hard time finding the great Protein powders here in Canada. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I do buy my son Muscle Milk because he’s always on the run with sports and I never really thought about it for me. I tried it and I really like it. I add a piece of banana and some Peanut Butter and ice and throw it on my nutribullet and it really is good! The best part is it’s pre-mixed already! I hope you have that in Canada.

sweetm 0 Posted April 11, 2018 Just curious... what’s a mini bypass? Good luck with it! Here is a link about the mini bypass. It’s kinda the “new improved” version of a bypass. And it’s reversible if need be. I like that in case of complications:) https://www.obesitycoverage.com/mini-gastric-bypass-the-good-bad-and-ugly/I checked out Popeyes today. I tried the LeanBody shake. Very sweet. Tomorrow I will try the Creed powder. Still can’t find GENEPRO here. When I’m in San Diego I’m hoping I can find a store and stock up:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missShotcaller 2 Posted April 18, 2018 I had my sleeve back in 2012 with no issues or anything bad, actually has been a positive experience overall but ready to continue the journey further, just not loosing, eating huge amounts again, have gained back 60 lbs and have severe GERD and am going to distal bypass in July 2018, hoping it will be a great decision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
