Guess Who Has Hit "onederland"?
Pat Z replied to Pat Z's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks everyone!! I weight myself at work where the scale is in the restroom. I was so happy that I said "Oh Yes"!! Loud enough that I got weird looks when I came out! I'm guessing they might have thought I was constipated and finally was able to go to the restroom!!! LoL -

My Hubby Doesn't Support Me Spending $15K For Surgery
Pat Z replied to tango16's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Why not get a loan from your 401k then you can repay yourself. And at 3% finance charge even better then some banks. You will not be taxed on that since you will be repaying it back and can take up to 6 years to pay if you want it that long. That's what I did!! -
Cannot Drink The Protein
Pat Z replied to wannabe2012's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take GNC Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60. It has 20g of protein and 93g calories. I mix it with 4oz of water. In no time it's gone. I still drink it 3 times a day cause it is that easy to get this one down. A 3lb jar is $76. But well worth it! Not thick at all. I drink the vanilla or cookies and cream. GNC always has good deals. Sign up on their web site and get a $10. Coupon. -
