February/March 2014 sleevers
SuperFab replied to rebeccasams's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My fave thing to do, no matter which flavor shake you choose is use frozen strawberries instead of ice cubes. Say u have banana powder and almond milk, pop in strawberries. Not ice. Yum -
BE SLEEVE IT OR NOT...14 DAYS UNTIL SURGERY!
SuperFab replied to Unbesleeveable's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm sorta glad I'm detoxed from carbs, sodas n caffein, but if I'm totally honest, if I didn't HAVE to do one I'd be eating a Pizza Hut pan crust supreme pizza right now. -
15 grams of carbs/500 or fewer calories a day until I lose 100 pounds?

Love the new pic!!!! -
I actually had mine taken out in 08 and it was a piece of cake.... I literally had it done, came home the same day and slept, then was feeling absolutely fine. Wanted to go back to work the next day but the dr wouldn't release me for a week. So the next day I cleaned my house, etc.

I love the chocolate ready to drink premier shakes. -
Omg!!! I am so very sorry for your loss. I know it's hard losing someone as both of my parents are gone. If I were there I'd give u a great big hug.

SuperFab replied to Aunt GG's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The only ones tolerable for me are About Time and premier RTD chocolate, which I really like. It's sort of hit and miss with protein powders plus they say tastes change after surgery. -
If you drink water it's used IN drinking water to winterize the system and keep drinking water from freezing. Unless you only drink spring water. And I'm not sure about those filtration systems. But I totally get what you're saying. There is lots of controversy over it. And the same with sucralose aka Splenda. I have a sensitivity to aspartame. It gives me headaches and diarrhea. Some people have that reaction to Splenda. In lab rats they both cause cancer. Of course in humans the equivalent would be copious amounts. Now days it seems like we just have to pick and choose our poisons. I will always lean toward stevia as my sweetener, but it's hard to find as a sweetener in products which sucks.

I know what you mean. Great job!!! I measured yesterday (day 10) and I've lost 2 inches in my waist, an inch and a half in my hips and a half inch around my neck.

Anyone have an issue with Sucralose/Splenda?
SuperFab replied to BryBro63's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Wow. Yeah, my guy does not know my weight. I totally feel where you're coming from. There was something making me sick with so many protein powders and she said at my second visit that her favorite was About Time. I was like "why didn't you tell me this the first visit instead of the second" and she flat out told me the office would rather us try their brands they carry first. Ok, understandable to an extent, but I was still pretty pissed. Lol -
Not trying to argue or debate, but the thing about Mio scared me so I looked it up. The thing about how they truck it in is not true either but I didn't wanna have to copy n paste n stuff again.

I wouldn't say Mio is pure sugar, far from it. If you read the back you'll see its not healthy but it not bad either. Everyone is worried about two of the ingredients, "propylene glycol" and sucralose. The rest has no complaints the i came across, so I'll focus on those two. First Propylene glycol, yes it is used in antifreeze, BUT it is "non-toxic" antifreeze and is the exact opposite of "ethylene" glycol which is also used in [toxic] antifreeze that is very toxic to humans and animals. Propylene glycol is used in antifreeze for winterizing drinking water systems. It is also used as a moisturizer in medicines, cosmetics, food, toothpaste, shampoo, mouth wash, hair care products, and the main ingredient of deodorant sticks. The list goes on, it's a good thing to look up it is in a lot of everyday things. Now sucralose, in minimal amounts as in mio is not bad, think about it most baking mixes have splenda in it, which is made from sucralose. Everything in Mio is something the body can use, as it is also found in other everyday items. Also if you're not sure just look it all up on your own, the short list list of ingredients doesn't take long. I really hope this helps, by the way i love Mio, it's really getting me to drink more water throughout the day. Source(s): Research on every ingredient listed. In the Berry Pomegranate Mio, which all Mio's are mainly the same except…Read more

That's odd. When I stocked at walmart it just came on the truck with everything else. But my absolute favorite is crystal lite pure, which is sweetened with stevia and you can't find anywhere but online since those Mio like squirts have taken over the shelves.
-
Awesome. I learned a little something new with that. It's good that full liquids calm it down.

I remember being like that after my gallbladder was removed. Lol. It took over a week for mine to go down. Hang in there n it'll go away. That's an amazing job on getting your Water done! Woot woot!!
-
Hahaha!!! I'm sorry but that's hilarious. I just mix unflavored with mio or crystal lite in a blender bottle. Then add ice. The opening is small so I don't have to smell it. I don't use unjury. I use my wls clinic's or Herbalife. Herbalife is by the spoonful. Not a scoop.

Are you still in the hospital. I know the gas hurts but, other than that, you seem to be rockin n rollin

Anyone have an issue with Sucralose/Splenda?
SuperFab replied to BryBro63's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
About time uses 7 ingredients or less and you can pronounce every one of them. It's the #1 my nut recommends. -

Hi guys, About Time uses Stevia. They are also yummy. You can go to www.tryabouttime.com -
My sis had to do room temp or warmer at first. Had to use a couple drops of Mio in her water. Supposedly, water has a lower tension level when you add Mio or Crystal Lite, so it goes down easier. Try Gatorade too.

On site you'll go up by your name and click the settings icon. Then click "my settings". Next click "notification options" that in the list on the left. Uncheck the row on the right.
