    Good luck!

    I will say that your tastebuds may change a little post-surgery. I could not handle anything overly sweet. Even Propel sports drinks were too sweet for me in the first few months. So...

    Re: pre surgery

    My surgeon did not require a pre-surgery diet. I was just no food or drinks after midnight the night before the surgery.

    Re: What is the best Protein Powder???

    I know you can purchase Premier and Isopure from Amazon. I prefer Premier, but am trying out Isopure since the Premier are pretty thick.

    I'm down in Galveston and was sleeved a little over a year ago. Yogurt and cottage cheese are saviors in the beginning. I got tired of sweet, so I would season my cottage cheese with savory spices....

    Re: Post Surgery

    It's hard, but you basically have to take a sip of water every few minutes. My doctor didn't focus on protein the first week, just liquid. I was also drinking Vitamin Water Zero because it had a good...

    Re: New Year's Resolutions?

    My goal is to go to the gym at least 3 days a week. I took most of December off because of sickness, work, and the Holidays. It's not a resolution, but I have a goal to be able to buy cowboy boots...

    Re: Hair loss

    I had loss from about month 4 to month 8-9. It has definitely slowed and I see some growing back in. You can also take Collagen along with Biotin. Also, be gentle on your hair. I try not to dry it or...

    Re: Startbucks

    I like the Shaken Strawberry Green Tea Infusion without the sweetener. You get a few extra calories, but not much.

    Re: Nausea and vomiting

    I still get nausea every now and then and I'm over a year out. Sometimes it's from the weirdest things. This summer, a sip of unsweet tea had to come back up. That was probably the weirdest. Also,...

    Re: 6 days out, feeling soooo tired

    Naps were critical in the first week. I think I was even taking a quick morning nap and then a longer afternoon nap. Also, I was drinking Vitamin Water Zero to help get in more vitamins.

    Re: taking meds after surgery

    I had to crush my medication for the first week or so. But I got approval from the doc to crush that one. I would check with our PCP or whoever prescribed the medications.
