Is a pouch bypass? I choose a sleeve due to the maintenance involved with bypass, plus I felt it was to drastic.

Just another company out of countless others trying to sell a new product for profit. Not better or worse than other advertisement. I don't know if you're overreacting. I'd like to see a lot of existing advertisements gone myself (out of the pure egoistic reason that it gets on my nerves) so I hear you. From another perspective I don't see why you're so worked up about this particular advertisement. It's just one single more questionable product that is advertised to maximize profit. Advertisement is not about ethics or responsibility. Otherwise we wouldn't have advertisement that promotes tobacco, alcohol, big gas guzzling cars, foods that come out of factory farming etc. - It's about profit and money only. What I consider much worse is when products are advertised as "healthy" when in fact they're anything but.

It has almost the same sugar as 16 ounces of Coca Cola and a lot of other things (starbucks 59, coke 52). Unhealthy sugar filled foods and drinks are pushed on people every day. This drink is just an easy target. Almost everyone I know that has tried said they would never have another one. All those Frappucinos are full of sugar, especially all the creme based ones like this one. Everyone knows, everyone ignores it. I don't get why everyone is freaking out now.

I don't like sweet sugary drinks so there's no way I'd even try it. Most people don't pay attention to nutritional eerrr....un-nutritional facts so it's scary to know that many will be pumping the case of obesity and diabetes in their bodies. Not cool Starbucks.

I totally agree with you Alex. 110%.

It scares me to see young people sucking these down on the regular with no concern. I saw two teens walking to my boys' school last week with venti fraps in hand (one was unicorn one was caramel). Breakfast of champions? I think not!!

Go for pre-op on wednesday Surgery is May 9 So excited to start a healthy life

I finally made it under 200!! It's been 10 years since I've seen a 1 in the front of my weight. Never thought I would be there again. So thankful I decided to go through the surgery. My HW was 247.4 I lost 10 before surgery which was on 1/31/17. So I am currently down a total of 48lbs!!

I have surgery on Monday 4/24. Good luck!!!

I am 7 days post op and I've been doing great with my diet of liquids but I'm curious what full feels like. I have yet to feel hunger so I am eating because I need to. I haven't eaten until I feel pain or discomfort so I'm starting to get concerned I'm not noticing it. What did full feel like to you this early on? I eat (drink rather) my broths and such very slowly and eat my Greek yogurt very slowly but I don't feel anything.
