New to site..Pending approval..



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. My name is Amy & I have just strated the process. I have been to one overview class & had orientation on Sunday.

Pending approval, I hope to get a call to see the surgeon within 2 weeks. I am nervous, excited & unsure of what to expect.

The thought of surgery TERRIFIES me. I am definetly not the person who is looking for a 'quick fix' I am looking for something that will change my lifestyle. And help me to enjoy a more quality life.

I tend to say I am overweight by 'default' LOL Because I do eat healthy & workout. I didn't get this way on junk food, or laziness. So that alone makes me wonder if this will even work for me.

I weighed in on Sunday at 277.7...OMG I can't believe I am typing that *ponders backspacing*

We were told at orientation that we needed to find a support group before our surgeon visit. My initial thought was I didn't need to. However with a 1/2 way not so sure not so supportive boyfriend, I think it is best. I already found comfort in reading many stories on this site.

I guess that's all for now!! Good luck to all!

Amy

      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.
