If you go to their website there is a "Where to Buy" tab and it has a list of retailers. -

I start my liquid only stuff as I go to bed this Sunday. Two weeks ago I kept asking our bariatric coordinator at the clinic when I should start the liquid diet and they said, nope start when you go to bed on Sunday. My sleeve is scheduled for the 16th. I will get a call the afternoon before for my check-in time. Yikes, it is becoming very real now. Good luck to all sleevers!!!!!!!!!!! Annie C -

I am amazed at some of the VERY SHORT lengths of time between first visit and surgery. I have had to jump through quite a number of hoops before I could even be approved. I started my journey on August 23, 2013 with a mandatory seminar that gets the ball rolling. Then I had to do 6 support groups, which are only offered once a month. 4 nutritionist appts, 2 psych, etc. Each visit is a $40 co-pay. Gas for the 60 mile round trip to/from the clinic/hospital. Maybe I am being a whiner, but geeze.... -

Also, what protein powder is suggested. Unjury is advertised on here, but does anyone have a preference? Soy or Wheat. Flavor. Etc.. -

My sleeve is scheduled for July 16th. Kind of nervous, but living with it. Will post more before photos and stuff once I get done at the hospital and back home. It will be nice not having to deal with work stress and crap for 4-6 weeks. Luckily I have enough leave time built up that I can take advantage of. Need some focus on me time. Plus, working up to solid foods will be hard enough without being at work too. -
