Hello wl community! Tomorrow is the first day of a 2 week liquid diet I have to do for a gastricectomy sleeve procedure. I've struggled with my weight for nearly my entire life and I finally got the courage to admit I need more help than I anticipated. I'm excited to start this new lifestyle for not only my body but my mind and spirit as well. I look forward to posting my progress and seeing/reading other success stories from this app!

There are helpful groups on Facebook... search Bariatric or VSG. I'm on Day 7 of my 10 day
Use high quality whey protein isolate, not concentrate.Only those with 90 to 150 cals per serving, 13 to 25 gms of protein per serving, and less than 5 gms of carbs or fat per serbing. I like Jay Robbs line and Pure Protein. Bariatric Choice has samples. Drink. Exercise when you're fretting or craving. Join fitness CLASSES as social support is so important. I wish you well...we've begun saving our own lives. Your chance of death in the next 5 years will drop by 89% per JAMA in 2015!0
