Soy Protein Shakes - Yea or Whey?
kathy@accent replied to vegwannabe's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
At Trader Joe's there is the "Trader Darwin" Unsweetened Vanilla Soy Enriched Protein. It is $11.99 for 28 servings, 120 calories for two scoops and 22 grams of protein. It has no artificial sweeteners, which I like too. I mix it with unsweented soy milk...vanilla is good to buy also or the unsweetened chocoloate soy is tasty for a change. You can add frozen banana or fruit (strawberries, pineapple, peach, etc) for some added fiber/flavor. I have found this to be the best one out there for taste, affordability, enriched vitamains and the fact there are no artificial sweeteners or fillers. I love Trader Joe's. -
I am considering the smaller port lap band..anyone any luck with it?

Hi..I am having surgery this week. I am down to 212 pounds and am 5"3". I am now down 20 pounds on my own. I am so nervous to be cut. Has anyone had the smaller port put in? I am thinking I should just have that put in first. I am pear shaped vs apple, so most of my fat is in my rear. What do you think? They might have to do the fills under floroscopy I heard, but wouldn't I be better off in the long run after I loose the weight? Thanks, k -

Congrats on getting down to 177. How long did it take? It is a tough decision. How many fills have you had to have? -
