Are folks leaving the steri-strips on till a doc removes them or removing yourselves? I had band aids over the steri strips that a nurse removed before I was discharged from the hospital. I have been trying to keep the strips from getting too wet in the shower but they are starting to itch a little bit and lift at the edges. I'm trying not to peel them off.

You can take the strips off. once they get wet you dont want to keep them on.

Omg that's a lot of drinking and not much Protein.. I have Isopure chocolate and isopure vanilla. Two scoops for 8 oz of skim is 50 grams of Protein. One scoop with 4 oz of skim is 25. You're drinking a lot of liquids to have a small dose of protein. Go to GNC ask for

Protein it's in a huge jug. Also ask for a mixing cup. It's a cup with a silver ball in it to help mix powder with milk or Water. I put a lot of ice in my cup I need it ice cold. The smaller bags are 25 bucks big plastic tubs are like 40.

Thank you!! I'm going to go there today and get it! Hopefully it will make it much easier for me to get all my protein in!! Much appreciated :-)

No problem I can't believe you had to drink 14 oz just for 25 grams of Protein. You poor thing. 25grams in 4oz sounds much better to me!! Lol good luck, glad to have helped
