BLAH

Anyone having surgery December 4th?

The 22nd I will find out which one I can do because I have to get a couple of test done first

I went to my second consultation today & the doctor recommended for me not to get Lap band because of my acid reflux & iron levels that came back from my test results I really don't know what to do now :/ I did not expect that at all

I heard so many things about the bypass that I don't know if I would do surgery if lap band was out of the question

The surgeon send me for a UGI have any of you had this done how is it what should I expect?

Omg really hopefully I won't gag because when I start is really bad

Thank you I was scared I didn't know what to expect lol

You welcome

I just purchased a Syntha 6 Vanilla ice cream protein shake & I did not like it at all I'm having such a hard time finding one that I can drink without having to gag or anything can I have some suggestions?

Carol the one I tasted has 25g of protein too & Nancy you should definitely do that save yourself some time & money in the long run!

Thank you & I'm going to edit & remove some of them

I was going to remove it but I just wanted to send the original so everyone can see I know many people wont drink it though but now that you mention it I will take it off because thats not good at all !

I know right! I'm already choosing the ones I would love to make ASAP lol

Carol those are the ones I tried & I loved them!

You can get them from your doctors office or GNC your doctor should provide you with a list of Protein shakes they recommend & the nutritionist said no about drinking slim fast is not allowed & about special k I don't know you should ask them I purchased so many Protein Shakes from gnc & I could not drink any of them they were not good at all I could not keep them down without gagging I finally found one & is gnc lean shake strawberry & chocolate I loved it I have to call the doctors office to ask if I can drink them

Thank you & I'm going to purchase Jay Robb's Vanilla

Thank you!! & yeah I'm purchasing them from gnc so I can exchange them

Thank you so much I'm trying!
