I am going through the Bariatric Surgery Program at San Antonio Military Medical Center( formerly BAMC)

I just saw in my email it was user name 4weightlosssake that I accidentally declined. I will request:)

I am a coach as I said but I don't pay anything to be one and I honestly haven't sold a thing. That is why I call myself a "discount coach" I signed to be one just for the discount and I don't have to do anything for it. My husband likes some of their workouts. I would not pay for the coach fees if it were not free and when my husband retires from Active Duty I will quit and pay full price.Notice I haven't given you any of my website details nor will I bc I don't even care if you buy through me or not. I just suggested shakeology bc I like the way they taste... I am not sold on green berry flavor I am too scared to even try....

I like chocolate powder I am going to try RTD shakeology next I am a coach but I don't actively try to sell I signed up to be a coach because I was able to do so for free bc my hubs is Active Duty Military and coaches get discounts on all beach body products to include workouts.So if any of you are AD military spouse and you want shakeology just sign up to be a " discount coach" bc you save 25%

I accidentally deleted someone's myfitnesspal friend request with my stupid IPhone if you friend requested me and I did not accept please do so again. I am accepting everyone buy my fat sausage finger overlapped the ignore button when I pushed and it vanished sorry

I am 5'2 and pre op and hope to be sleeved by Mid October - November I am having it done in San Antonio TX .My current weight is 220 and goal is 130- 140 and I am 32 years young

I know you want RTD have you tried Shakeology RTDs(they are a beach body product) ? I have the powder in chocolate and they are pretty good my powder had 9 g sugar and 17 g carbs with 18 g protein per shake so a little high for carbs and sugar but it tastes good. I bet the RTDs are even better. It is $$ though so I am waiting to finish my powder before ordering the RTDs. I am not sure if someone sells RTD samples ?

People in our support group really recommend the flavorless protein powder ( unjury??) and adding it to various non sweet things like soup or v8... I haven't tried but plan on it when I start preop diet.

My husband likes thick women too I was 155 when he met me...I think I would've happy with that weight I just want to try for the 135-140 so my BMI willve in normal range:)

My my current pre op weight is 220 and goal is 135-140 I am 5'2" and 32 yrs old. I am curvy naturally and muscular I am mixed (black and yellow) and I want to keep some booty so I don't want to go too low lol.

Is he in Monterrey Ca? I was just curious I live in San Antonio but my whole family lives in Cali and I was wondering if plastics was cheaper there ?

Have you asked this question in the Military Spouses group? I too would like to hear the answer. At the seminar I attended they said that they can make a referral to plastic surgery but that tricare rarely covers it.

Just remember the body can process no more than 30 grams of protein at one time and anything over that will be stored as fat (from everything I have read).The Bariatric surgeons in our program recommend low fat low sugar low carb less than 15 carb gms per shake.300 calories is a lot unless it is a food replacement.

I would recommend Dr. Peterson at Christus Santa Rosa Westover Hills in San Antonio. I am going through the military SAMMC but he used to be (before he left the military))the head Bariatric Surgeon for the Bariatric program at Wilford Hall and I have heard nothing but good things about him!

I hear that Starbucks has a protein Bento Box that is not too bad but I don't know....

Awesome congrats!

I am pre op but one of the things the surgeons at my Bariatric Clinic stressed was weighing only 1x per week (hard I know). The reading material they hand out says the body can fluctuate up to 3 even 5 pounds based on fluid retention. Also you are only 1 week out and your body is still recovering from the major trauma that is surgery as you are healing you a very likely to be holding on to water. It will work for you no worries:)

Hang in there ! I am pre op but one thing my doctors at the Bariatric Clinic stressed is only weighing 1x per week (hard I know) our bodies can fluctuate 1-5 pounds a day according to their reading material due to water retention. Your body is still healing as surgery is major trauma even though you may feel fine it is recovering. You are doing great just keep it going:)

They have fruit waters in my grocery store (HEB) they do not have any sugar or sweeteners or even juice just fruit flavor. It is like La Croix fruit waters without carbonation I can't remember the names but there are a coupled brands they are near Perrier,La Croix and bottled waters area next to vitamin water.
