I bought my son a magic bullet a couple of months ago for college. He loves it and it's easy for him to keep clean. My husband recently bought me one and I see it is very easy to clean. I like it. I'm still working on the approval phase but thought I get a head start with the bullet and sometimes drink Protein Shakes as a Meal Replacement.< /p>

Never used a ninja. Two MB's though.. one at home, one at the office. Easy to clean.

I love the NInja, although it is not the easiest to clean, especially around the blades, and lid

I have an oyster single serve blender. I use it everyday. It worked really well in the beginning but after a few months of daily use, it doesn't work nearly as well. It is easy to clean though!

On a side note, I found that after my surgery, I didn't like the thicker shakes. Well, my sleeve didn't like them. During the pre-op diet, thick shakes were awesome. I ended up switching to using BlenderBall bottles to mix up my Syntrax Nectar shakes. The consistency is more like chocolate milk. (Or flavored milk, I don't always have chocolate.) Granted, this might be just a quirk with my sleeve. Obviously other people still like thick shakes. ;)

Do blenders make shakes have air bubbles?

Yep... that is what makes them thick - air bubbles.

I have two separate blenders that I use: Magic Bullet - easy to clean, good to mix Protein powder and liquid, but just okay; and the blender that Montel Williams promotes, The Montel is larger and is just as difficult to clean as any regular blender. The upside to the Montel is that you can make Soups, etc. with it. When I make a Protein shake, I can add spinach and carrots or any veg to my shake with a bit of fruit, much more nutritional. Liquifies just about anything.

I too loved my bullet for Pre-op shakes with ice and frozen fruits, etc. Didn't use at all on liquids stages 1 or 2-used a shaker cup with blender ball. Now on puree, the tiny amount of food I'm pureeing gets stuck in the blades of my Bullet. I think I'ld like the Ninja-the new one out on commercials now has a drink cup, small and large bowls. It looks like it does everything that my 12 other alliances do. (Christmas gift hint!)

I have a Ninja Pulse. It came with a large upright pitcher & 3 "bullet" style single cups. I LOVE IT. Soooo easy to clean & nothing sticks to the inside of the cups, even if I forget to rinse them out before they hit the sink. I use the single cups way more than the pitcher. It turns ice to snow. Great product.

On another note, a standard blender blade component will fit on a mason jar. Unscrew the blades, fill the jar with your ingredients & leave about 1-2" of room at the top. Screw the blades on the jar, flip 'er over & put it on the blender & go to town like normal. Voila! Single serve, easy to clean... :}

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
