I’m sorry. Did you get hurt at work?

FYI - you have to be habitual for it to come up positive - if you really didn’t “inhale” protest the exam that lost your job.

pretty amazing.

JUST FOUND Syntrax makes a unflavored - you can find it on Amazon and the big container is (today anyway) $17. I can’t wait for my surgery!

i thought giving up coffee was MUCH harder

My surgeons suggest no corn, peas or potatoes during the weight loss phase

I love Syntrax - it’s low in carbs - zero sugar - and mixes easily with Water - flavors like koolaid - I give it two thumbs up. Some of the flavors are sold in sample packs - try before you buy - AND - try your Vitamin Store - if you have that chain where you live

absolutely NO idea - I am pre-surgical and the office was kind enough to give this to me - this is the diet I get when I come home from the hospital - not bad eh? I stay in the hospital for 4 days - I hope that is a mistake and they mean up to 4 days - when I had a c-section I just about lost it after 2 in a hospital...

I’m reading my “rules” and I see I can have ONE cup of coffee a day - woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I heart the strawberry mousse it tasted good with water - but ice cold water - tasted like strawberry quick which i drank allot as a kiddo.

this thread sounds very shame shame on you - Hey - I’m pre-surgical Eat what you can Eat what your NUT is ok with and don’t feel shamed by ANYBODY - you had that before - now is time for the new you to arrive develop and expand - are you loosing do you feel good let those things moderate your feelings about what your eating...none of us will ever be you - and visa versa. good luck.

Think of it as time to prepare for your new life.

they won’t even let me talk to the surgeons office until I satisfy this requirement - then I have a 3 hour surgeon appt - 8 pre-tests - and then we submit to insurance.

For six months

I have to see my pcp and that's usually 45 I have to see a nut and that's an hour

i <3 pharmacists - y’all do know more than the dr’s on this stuff.

Does anyone know what the diff is btw matrix and regular? At the Vitamin Store (a chain here) it was $12 difference? I have been drinking that sky one forever - and loved it - and if you are a child of the 70’s you remember strawberry quick - and the strawberry mousse is to die for - even with Water... I LOVE Syntrex

I have to go month to month - the appointment is 60 minutes - face to face - that’s for SIX months - so it could suck more...

Call the pharmacy where you got it - pharmacists actually know more than Dr’s on meds and effects - my pharmacists wife had rny - so i’m set!

That IS a side effect of going off of some meds - when my husband went off of vicoden (a few years back) he was up for days (it felt like forever) - so it’s totally possible that’s what’s going on. I’ve taken vicoden and codine with ZERO issues - so you might be sensitive like my husband. good luck!

try costco too - but I suppose that costco bag may last you for 3-5 yrs

Remission - you know we can not eliminate diabetes but we can put it in remission. An a1c is THREE months of sugars.

Thanks so much. I’m excited.
