Hey guys, just want to share. UMP protein powder is the best! Especially cookies and cream! It’s a little pricey but 5 star rating. Doesn’t have that awful taste protein powers have. Please try!!! Vitamin shop has sometimes 50% off. -

Average weight loss per week
linita replied to linita's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
That’s actually what I’m averaging as well. But we don’t want it to go to fast either (saggy skin lol [emoji23]) working out but don’t think I’ll catch up to prevent it. -
Anyone from UF Shands GAinesville F.L.
linita replied to linita's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
That’s amazing. I’m glad you had a good experience. I had my surgery on February 23, and I have zero complaints. It’s been great. I actually work there and can say the same for the hospital in general. Did you have sleeve or bypass? -

Hi Julia! I just had surgery last Friday (sleeve with Dr. Friedman). Haven’t met with the NP yet. Good experience so far. Are you happy with your decision? And how are you feeling? [emoji4] -
Ooooh sounds good to me! Really looking forward to it. Thanks!
