Magic Bullet?



Recommended Posts

I've been reading things about the "Magic Bullet" so I looked it up on the internet ... WOW~kind of expensive ($100 for 2 plus $35 S/H) on its official website:eek: or I can buy it at Walgreen's for $60.

I already have a food processor and blender ... can anyone tell me what I'm not seeing :noidea:... it just looks like a food processor/blender together, why is it so terrific?:)

Please advise.

Good luck to all in June on our journey. :cheer2: I'm going to my surgical support group tomorrow night ... can't wait to see them and to get weighed. Curiosity killed the cat.

I have one and I have a genaric one Mrs Kitchens works just as well and it cost $30.00.You can do the same thing with a blender( a good one) I get a bag of Dole frozen fruit and some low sugar juice and make fruit sorbet.

I make Protein Drinks in the morning. chicken salad.But like I said you can use a blender to do all this also.

I went to wallmart and got me a 11.99 blender. It is the best... I am drinking vegetable and OC shakes every morning. But I am eating a lot all day long. I think cause I am nervous.. plus I tell my self I will never eat like this again.

I love my Magic Bullet! The blender takes up so much space on the counter, and the MB doesn't. I also love blending in the cup I drink from -- less cleanup -- and I take it with me on trips so I can blend in my hotel room.

I love love love my Magic Bullet! You can get one at Walmart for about $45 I think. I pureed everything in it, still use it for after fills, and make Protein Drinks in it. (and salsa) The good thing is that you can drink right out of the "cup" you mix things in and dont have anything else to wash. I think it is well worth the money. The wand type doesnt fit into my glasses and is a mess to clean, but this just my 2 cents!

      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.
