Tyler - Hi. You're a little bit taller than me! I'm about 4'8 or so.

I used alot of Muscle Milk and a Protein supplement called Protein Bullet. It tasted totally gross, but making sure to get enough protein along with taking Vitamins, helped.

Good luck to you.

I have used Muscle Milk Light and Premier Protein shakes from costco or Sams Club. Both taste pretty good. I also like some of Lindora's Protein liquids (i.e. wildberry juice, broth, etc.)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
