After five years of yo-yo dieting and many failed attempts at getting healthy, I decided to fly to Mexico to get the sleeve done. I am from Canada, and the waiting list is almost 2 years. Also, I am "just" very obese and not morbidly, and had no other pre-existing health conditions, which push me to the back of the line when it comes to surgery. :(

My surgery date was November 21st, 2012 of this year and my surgery was performed by Dr. Almanza. I have made a video that tells my story, but am having trouble uploading it-boooo!

Please feel free to add me as a friend, or follow my progress at Tijuana, etc. :)

Cheers!

      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.
