    protein shake help.

    Personally, everything by Unjury except for the chicken Soup flavor is terrible.
  2. I freaking love these. I am drinking a bombdiggity pb Protein shake- a few cubes of ice, about... I dunno, 8 oz of almond milk, a pkg of pb flavor (and an additional dab of Peanut Butter........I really like peanut butter). Blend her up and aaaaaaaahhhhh. LOVE IT. I only got peanut butter and banana... Really sweet shakes don't appeal to me at all. I can't even imagine a shake that tastes like birthday cake. i might have got a couple of chocolate/peanut butter but I haven't tried it yet. I feel like they might need to be doctored up a bit... like the banana flavor is weak but I have some banana extract and might put a few drops in to boost it some. The PB one is good with a little bit of actual peanut butter. I agree that the amount of powder in the pkg seems to be way more than what one scoop would be from a container of powder.

    PRE OP LIQUID DIET DAY 7: CAN I JUST EAT HUMMUS BY THE SPOONFUL?

    Oooh jello. I have some. I should get some. But that would require going downstairs.....

    Mini Gastric Bypass

    I've heard of it but it seemed very experimental.

    When to tell new boyfriend I had Sleeve surgery?

    Whenever you're ready to share that. I was following a gal on Youtube that didn't tell her man until he'd proposed. He didn't seem surprised.

    I am trying so hard not to eat :(

    Surgery is Friday, have been on the liquid diet for a week. I chew gum to help me get by.
  7. I was going to say this exact thing.
  8. 7 days to surgery. Nowhere near ready.

    Resistance band workout?

    I love The Firm Sculptilates. Also Leslie Sansone has a walking vid that uses the resistance band.
  10. I started on a Saturday so i could have the day to myself and not have to worry about being distracted and hearing all the food talk. I went shopping, then came home, did some stuff around the house, did some reading and got myself buried in a project. If I was hungry, I had some soup or I drank some water or ate some jello. You're not supposed to starve, so have a shake, some soup, put something in your tummy!
  11. Maybe you should post what you're eating daily. My surgeon advises that when stalls or plateaus come, the first thing to do is cut your carbohydrates, especially after 4pm. Are you losing any inches? Are your clothes baggy or fit weird or have you had to buy new ones?
  12. Pffft. This liquid diet ain't no thang!

    Wanting to leave my SO?

    Am I making the right choice?

    I went with the choice that made me feel the most comfortable, both with price and experience. I'm paying more for my procedure, but I just felt more comfortable having Dr Alvarez do my sleeve. When I tried to talk myself into going to a different surgeon, I just couldn't do it. Go with your gut!

    Sleeved In Mexico By Dr. Alvarez Today!

    Great you are doing so well. I meet Dr Alvarez in 9 days! He connects with his patients on twitter a lot. Yesterday I told him I was counting down the days!
  18. Liquid diet easy peasy. Ate out tonight, had bisque. Was delish.

    OMG! I HAVE SO SCREWED UP!

    Same. Have your surgery, tell him afterward if you feel comfortable enough to. Our office is small so I figure that people will find out about it eventually.
