I get the sleeve on July 8th. I am self pay, so hearing about all the delays and timelines you all have to follow is crazy! I also teach, so July is ok. I was hoping for the end of June, but here we are! Good luck to everyone!!

I am July 8th! I’m excited! Can’t wait to begin this new journey.

So this is the nutritional panel from my shakes. I think because it’s vegetable based that’s why there are so many carbs. I have my pre-op appt on the 25th, so I will talk to my surgeon then. Just wondering what any of you thought about this. I looked at my soy isolate powder and it has 0 carbs, so obviously, this is a concern.

I haven’t had surgery yet. July 8. I’m just trying to find a protein shake I can stomach.
-
So each shake should have no more than 5g of sugar? Darn! mine has 9g. I guess it's back to soy isolate for me.

I don’t mind the taste, the whey just wrecks my stomach.

I got an unflavored soy isolate, mixed it with water and crystal light. It’s not wonderful, but my stomach can tolerate it. Only 20g of protein per serving, but at least I can stomach it.

Sometimes, with no rhyme or reason, milk/dairy negatively affects me. I’m thinking of trying something lactose free. I’m ok with the consistency, it’s just about 30 minutes after, I have a horrible stomachache.
