I finally got the guts to schedule the consult!



Recommended Posts

September 1st is my first consult, in Houston with Dr. Marvin. ((Squeal!!))

I am cash pay, so I pushed it that far back to allow me to save money, and make some extra money to put down for downpayment.

I am soo excited, but still dealing with very skeptical husband about spending so much...and he will not budge on letting me to go Mexico, I'm not going to fight it. Just going to save as much $ as possible to have minimal impact on our finances.

Still haven't told my family...thats a milestone for another day :)

Congratulations!!! :) How exciting. It just puts you in a totally different frame of mind, huh? I have my consult scheduled for May 10 and even just scheduling it makes me feel like a different person!

Sophie--where does Dr. Marvin work from? I'm scheduled for my sleeve on Monday at Memorial Hermann in the Medical Center with Dr. Todd Wilson. I'm scared and excited at the same time!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
