Suggested Protein Powders Please
lorax replied to It's about Me's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
https://store.bariatricpal.com/pages/search-results-page?q=syntrax+nectar+protein+powder THIS. It doesn't even taste like you're behaving yourself ..it also comes in an unflavored powder that you can put in water if you don't want sweet/ mix in other foods for extra protein. -
Worried about getting sick before surgery

zinc is best for colds, -
Hello there , I am doing the final prep for surgery and I am at somewhat of a loss as to what to use for portioning post surgery. I changed doctors due to a move and i can't remember what she suggested for portioning cups, any advice would be great I would like to have everything at home so I can make a smooth/ productive recovery. Thank you for all suggestions

I never thought to look there, this was a very good idea . Congrats on being so close to goal weight btw

It's horridly expensive but you are making an investment in yourself that will lead to a much longer and healthier life. You will live longer and have more fun doing it you will reap cosmetic and health benefits from this =)

Totally off topic but I wanted to take a moment to congratulate you on being so close to goal weight.

( ouch!) Does your insurance have a max out of pocket for the year? Look at it this way you are most likely meeting that max and can get other things addressed health-wise plus you have a security blanket if you end up dehydrated or other wise not feeling well for the rest of the year.

I am the 15th, we can talk if you would like. -
Mine was 1000$ after insurance you should be able to call the billing specialist or your insurance and figure out exactly how much they are covering.

I have a scale, what I am looking for is a portioning cup that holds exact amounts my former nut suggested a perfect one but the doctors office was extremely unfriendly when I changed doctors so I don't want to call and ask lol *The scale idea sounds like a great double check , thank you i'll remember that when im on solids *
