    Protein Shake Recipes

    the trick is to find a protein drink you really lime- that is key. for me it is Matrix Chocolate Mint cookie- no aftertaste- really good. I order on Amazon.
  3. You can do this! try eating something like sugar free popsicles or another good protein drink with a lite fruit in it when you want to cheat. It is sooo worth it. 5 months out- 80 lbs.

    Fibromyalgia And Surgery

    I have Ankolysing spondylitis and fibromyalgia. I am 7 weeks post- op and 40 lbs down. I am in a flare right now and Its severity is much less than in the past. I have not taken any related meds since surgery. Some days have been tough, but not near as tough as before with more weight and inactivity. I have had organ involvement before too. The two biggest thing I can tell you us this. Start washing your stomach and under your breasts with Hibiclens one week before surfery to help prevent infection. Then use 2-3 times a week after - so you dont get an infection. Because our immune systems are broken, I also had a terrible severe allergic reaction to the surgical glue tgey used to clise. It went into my entire body and I ran higher fevers, had to chug the Benedryl and it made me feel really sick. I strongly suggest eitger making them do a patch test on you a couple of weeks before or not using it at
  8. FYI- the best is matrix mint cookie- no funny aftertaste at all, but you have to order. I order 5 lbs at a time on amazon.
  9. The best one I have found is Matrix chocolate mint cookies and cream- hard to find tgough, so I special order on Amazon. The mint disguises the protein badness and it freezes into yummy fudge icles.

    Creo Mundi Protein Shakes From The Dragons Den

    no- the best protein shake I have found is matrix chocolate mint cookies and cream- hands own. Hard to find, but I order mine on amazon. something about the mint masks the sometimes icky protein aftertaste.
  11. I live in Dallas and was sleeved 5/30. Love the idea of a monthly support group. Lets set one up for July?

    I Am Terrified Of Losing My Hair!

    I actually have some Biotin sublingual in liquid form. Do you think I can take?? I have a custom partial hairpiece I had made 2 years ago because my hair thinned alot from some medication I had to take. It was not cheap- but looks awesome- totally blends in. If the hairloss bothers anyone, this is an option. Just research for a good place. I go to a place in Fort Worth. 1 1/2 hours away but well worth it.
