The Vitamin Shoppe. Although I think you can get them other places. I like the Vitamin Shoppe because they have a 30 day return policy. If you try something and don't like it they let you bring it back for store credit. The selection was good, and I figured that even if I tried every brand they had and hated them I could use the store credit on Vitamins. I'm sure other places have that policy too, but VS is right by my house.

I had to do the Optifast for pre-op and a week after for post-op. Once there gone I"m going to move over the Whey Protein.< /p>

Muscle milk light isn't too bad. I usually drink Unjury, and my fiance drinks the whey Protein Isolate from Vitamin Shoppe. I would stay away from Medifast, for the most part they taste terrible. We recently discovered something called Milk and Egg protein at Vitamin Shoppe also...best tasting of all the ones I've tried!

I use the EAS Pure Protein chocolate. 23g protein and 7 carbs. I mix it with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Yum. Even yummier when I add a tsp of instant coffee dissolved in about 1/4c. of hot Water.< /p>

I picked up my shake this weekend, I went to GNC and they told me to get the Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60, can anyone tell me if that is the correct one, there are so many to choose from. :unsure:

I saw someone else posted they picked up the 100% Protein Shake from GNC so I wanted to see if this was not the correct ... help! please!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
