Hey, if there is anyone in the South Los Angeles, CA area who is in the beginning stages of their journey or will be having surgery soon and needs protein shakes, liquids, i have some I would like to give away. I have premier protein shakes in chocolate and vanilla flavors, I have a couple of containers of creamy soups in tomato and butternut squash, I also have Arizona green tea zero and a few bottles of vitamin water zero... if you are interested in any of the items please message me. First come. We can meet up. I overstocked prior to my surgery and would like to share with someone who may need these items. I also have broths as well, chicken, beef, and veggie broths. With love, Jenny

You should be fine as long as you are not in any major pain and haven't had any changes in how you're feeling. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Congrats!! I was just approved too!! March 21 is my date...good luck to you!

Hi everyone! Hope all is well. I was wondering if there were any Bypass vets out there who's highest weight was the in the 400's. Mine was 437LB and I just want to know how much weight have you lost and about how long did it take you to lost it after surgery? Im curious because I am 3 weeks out and have only lost 5LBS. But I am not eating hardly anything. So just curious. Thanks.

Not a shake, but I love Unjury's chicken broth. 21 or 27 grams of protein a package. I'm so over sweet protein shakes. Height: 5'0" Weight for WLS consultation: 216 lbs. Surgery date: 2/13/17 Goal: -71 lbs for healthy BMI (about 145 lbs). Current weight: 185.2 My profile picture is not me. It's my "FITspiration" body.

Thank you for your response... went in Friday for 2liters saline. Tomorrow I will call again..without nourishment I don't see much hope...i only had 45 lbs to lose to begin with..feel kinda lost right now

I can eat fish but I think the shakes will be fine since only for a short time. also if you can have dairy-the ricotta bakes and refried Beans are a good Protein source as well as cheese. just so you can have SOME options.
