Discount Protein products?

Okay guys' date=' I need to catch up on the thread but need your help while I'm thinking of it. I'm starting to get my hunger sensation back and am

1. On a very tight budget

2. SICK of my chocolate/vanilla/strawberry Protein Shakes.< /p>

I'm willing to buy online. Please reply to this thread with suggestions; I'm in the purée phase and already eat 1-2 Greek yogurts a day it seems.

Thanks![/quote']

I like Isopure in Dutch chocolate. It's a huge container and it costs about $42. I got it from Amazon but you can purchase it from GNC.< /p>

Hello my fellow July Band Buddies! I was just banded on the 17th. Feel very bloated! Can't wait until I am all healed and on a regular routine. It will be nice to follow everyone's progress!

It was great. We had an awesome time. Now it's back to reality. The reality of me only having 28 days to spend with my daughter before she has to leave or college 7 hours away :(

Aww sorry kbush but I'm glad u had a great time! Aviva anytime I lay on my side I feel a weird pull on my side and it freaks me out. I'm still so afraid

I'm gonna put too much pressure on my incision marks. I could t even think of laying on my stomach.

When I started trying my side out I would hug a pillow to my stomach and for whatever reason that seemed to help.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
