Also, I buy the premier protein fruit punch at Sam's. 12 for $20. Don't like the flavor a lot, but just add crystal light packs to change flavor. Works for me. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm 57, 4 1/2 months out and down 81 pounds. I also have not exercised due to a broken foot. Got out of my last cast yesterday, so planning to start soon. Just giving it a couple days to build a little strength back first. Plan to walk as the first activity. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Only 2 ppl know of mine. However, I am doing very well. If you just stick to the plan and don't go buying too many clothes real quick just go down gradually. People still notice the weight loss, they just don't talk about the method. If they do, I tell them what I've learned about healthy eating, portion control, and cutting carbs. I think the protein is a huge factor. That is something I didn't know, so I make sure to pass that on as well. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Great work. Girl, you got some legs! Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I drink the protein Premier clear all the time I order it eight cases of time from Sam's online so they deliver it directly to my house. The fact that they only have the one flavor does get to me but I also buy packets of Crystal Light and sometimes put those in them that way I can change it to any flavor I want it works very well for me.

I buy it in 3 packs from Amazon for my coffee. One bottle lasts about a month. It really goes a long way. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

The protein C lear comes in fruit punch. Kinda like Kool-Aid Atkins makes one called Lift in Lemon, Berry, and orange. Protein20 makes a few flavors. I drink the grape and cherry. . Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Yeah. Atkins comes in berry, orange, and lemon. The lemon is my least favorite, but I like to mix grape Crystal light in. Then I love it. Premier only makes fruit punch (berry) that I know of. It us much cheaper. I get it at Sams. They kinsa taste like Koolaid or Gatoraid to me. If I get tired of the flavors, I just sat in some Crystal Light powder and change it up a little bit.

I can't stomach the shakes at all. I drink premium Clear Protein Drink from Sams and Protein20 from Amazon. Have you tried these? To me, they are 100 times better than shakes. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I paid 19k self pay here in my city. It included hospital, surgeon, blood work, anesthesiologist and take home prescriptions and appointments. Very satisfied. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

56 here. RNY 5-2-17. So far down 59.2 pounds. No problems. Feeling great. Loss has slowed down the last couple of weeks. I have broken my leg so not started walking or exercise yet. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I had two recently. 1. I got my blood pressure taken at Sams and my arm actually fit in the machine. No push g or squeezing. 2. I weighed myself today and realized that I could look down and read my weight without having to back off the scale to see what it said. Yay!

I also originally wanted the sleeve. I had acid issues and when I heard the doctor speak about that I changed it to the rny and I'm glad I did. It immediately cured my acid reflux issues Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I had the same reaction to Levaquin although it had nothing to do with my WLS surgery. I was put on Levaquin for a very bad pneumonia infection that lasted 3 months last year. My foot, one or the other, has been in an air cast 4 times since. 3 months last summer. 6 weeks this past Feb/Mar. And a whole new bout starting yesterday. I was told that those antibiotics are antibiotics of Last Resort because they can cause muscle and tendon damage. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I will be 8 weeks out Tuesday. Started at 283 now at 233. I also had a plateau for 12 days I was stuck between 238 and 240. It finally broke two days ago and I went down to 233 and I've been there ever since. I just kept doing the same thing and eventually the scale moved for me so I think it will for you too. Good luck. I know it's frustrating but it's exciting too crossing my fingers for all of us. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

This is about her body and she knows it better than anyone. Support her completely. Surely you have enough confidence in your own cavities to believe that you raised a child competent of making her own decisions. If she's done all this on her own at that young age with opposition at home, she is competent and commuted and has earned nonjudgemental support. Be there for her on her terms. Either way she will need you. You may be right...she may fail, but what if she flies? Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I had one eye set for distance and one for close up when I was wearing contacts. When I had my lenses put it, they did them the same way. I can see great at distances and close up although closeup is better. My husband has a multimodal implant that he is not living as much as I do mine, but he also had some astigmatism that need correcting. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I didn't have one. I did fine. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Is everyone supposed to take an acid reducer? Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I use the same protein water. I get it from Sams but they are frequently out of it. It goes fast. I found that I can order from them directly online and have it shipped to the house for free. Also, just fyi, they only have the one flavor and it gets tiresome after a little while but I take Crystal Light powder and mix it in and it changes the flavor so you have a lot of choices.

May 1st here as well. Good Luck all! I can hardly wait.
