I had surgery yesterday!



Recommended Posts

Congrats! I had mine done 13 days ago. I feel really good. I am back to work. Down 23lbs!!! You can do this. You will be tired for the next week or too, but you will perk up and do great! Try gas x for the back pain, it works wonders. Or a heating pad to the back works wonders too. Best of luck, keep us posted. Kelli

brownskin82 and hanna130 , welcome to band land it is down hill from here , u guys willbe fine once u get past the gas just keep moving around and the gas x did help me , but i have heard others say it didnt help.

I had my procedure on Oct 8 so it will be a month for me on in a few days I have lost 21 lbs so far and I am weighing 197 so I am happy it isnt much I see others loose way more but I am still happy I am walking and riding a bike for exercise , I am doing good, to all of u good luck on ur new journey!!

Congrats!

We, my daughter and I just had surgery on Oct. 30th. 5 days ago and the abs are barely sore if at all.

We are so excited for a new start on life. I am 45, she is 19. We both tipped the scales at 299lbs. We desperately needed the help!

Wish us all luck!

      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.
