Day 2 headache this morning was terrible. I actually had to take a gravol with my Tylenol. Sodium free broth sucks!! I'm loving this protein water though. (Protein2O)

Withdrawals from all the bad choices I was making for years.

I am going the private route. My choice is VSG and I did not want to go through the whole process to have to fight for VSG. My wait time is also significantly less. I called in June and my surgery is this month. I am sure it could have been done in July but I had vacation plans. I still had scope, ECG, blood work, dietician and internal medicine just at a quick pace.

This will pass; hang in. The liquid diet gets easier after the first few days. How did you swing Protein water instead of Opti? Lucky!

My surgeon just wants me to get in a minimum of 60g protein. He provides the Celebrate brand. I have used all optionset available. I still prefer the protein water and Premier shakes. Lucky for sure?
