  1. I am looking to make homemade protein bars, does anyone have any recipes to share plz! Thx
  2. And personally i just cant do the proyein powders ANY flavor i gag anyway they r made.....i have bought everything from protein pudding to unflavored but i just cant drink them.....i have great results and like the Isopure clear from GNC it is $5 a bottle w 40 grams of protein and taste good, can also b used as a clear liquid! Also the first cpl days were pure hell for me, but i also had the revision, my friend had just the sleeve and she did awesome. The first week u will b sore and tired, make sure to get b12 that saved me and nade me feel sooooo much better!

  4. I traveled w my bff and we both were sleeved so idk but i would say they might get bored because they will b n a hospital waiting and watching, have them bring books and laptop! Hotel and hospital have wireless! They give u a care pk when u leave hospital and it has all ur diet plans on it! And as far as test print outs ......when u leave they send a dvd of ur leak test and paperwork of ur bloodtest w results n spanish ( lol) for u to have for ur dr at home! If u guys want to ask me any direct questions u can also email me at cinwalker11@yahoo.com i will b happy to answer i also have some pix i will share of TJ and the hotel and my inscisions etc
  5. I get the Icy Orange Isopure and also add some orange gatorade just to kill the tiny bit of after taste! I am looking for Tang sugarfree to try w it

    No I didnt have a catheter w Dr Garcia anyway! I took sweat pants and lose things to wear after and the plane ride sucked after i was swollen and no room to move, was glad to get that over with! My incisions were all over and my worst one was the one right at the bottom of my bra in the center, my bra rubbed that one and still does 4 weeks post op, ive had a hard time getting that one to heal and its still sore! One thing to not forget is large band aids and some really small ones ...the tape they use pulled my skin off and i had blisters from it so i had to buy some extra ones! If u think u might want jello after take it with you, i had a cpl bites 2 days after and it tasted great! I read alot of stuff people said you needed and i didnt need hardly any of, it they provide most of what u need after! They send u home w a care pkg!

    Im doing pretty good i have lost 28 lbs since surgery. Fiinding the right protein for me was hard i spent alot of money on powders etc and cant drink them but i have found something at GNC called Isopure clear w zero carb, it comes in a glass bottle w about 10 different flavors, ex....icy orange, grape frost, apple...etc and they taste pretty good. They have 40 grams of protein per bottle and r considered a clear liquid for u all pre op! I tend to feel alot of nausea everytime i eat still but otherwise i feel great

    I had revision 4 weeks ago and did have the extra test, was put to sleep first.......but they r looking for band slippage or erosion thru the stomach lining and if its all good they will do the revision n same day instead of waiting a few month to do sleeve
