    shakes

    Those have too high calories vs protein. That's why they recommend the premier and isopure etc. You shouldn't drink them after the surgery

    shakes

    I spoke with nutritionist and they said it's fine, cause you can only absorb around 30 at a time and your drinking point 2oz of the 8 oz every 15 min that's Ok. I'm excited I went and bought the big bucket lol. .

    Pre op Diet

    I guess it's a trade off. My surgery was supposed to be in December then they Couldnt get me in so pushed it all back. Which made my my insurance messed up esp seeing I had deductible paid and all. Now I'm doing it all over again this will be expensive ..but worth it . At least some stuff...

    Has anyone hid their surgery from family/friends?

    Ok everyone I'm interested if anyone else had hid their surgery from family and friends? I currently only have two people besides my Dr that knows I'm having the surgery. My concerns are if people know even family that they will think I'm taking the easy way out and will treat me differently...

    Surgery Feb. 10th

    Thanks tracy , I'm concerned about telling any of my friends and family. I really don't think they'll be truly supportive and I think they'll feel I'm taking the easy way out.

    do you need help at home after a laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery?

    I think the isopure drinks are considered clear liquids they're at gnc and they look like energy drink kinda stuff in glass bottles.

    i am getting the lap band in the next 3-4 wks.

    I'm just curious why you decided to get the band and if the Dr was trying to talk you out of it? I was also going to get lap band but my Dr said they are actually looking at pulling that from approved bariatric surgeries. I changed to sleeve and will be having surgery on the 10 th of Feb.
