I just made a Protein smoothie with EAS Myoplex, chocolate PB2, Greek yogurt, and two strawberries. I puréed the berries first, then blended the rest of the ingredients. Is it okay for the full liquids stage? I can still feel a few of the strawberry seeds. My sleeve manual doesn't say anything about it.

Kinda what I figured. Dang. That was in the freezer and starting to sound good while my family has my dad's best BBQ. Liquids suck. Maybe I can blend chicken...lol. This, too, shall pass, and I will be happy I did it. Thanks, Laura.

Strain the berries.. Or use the juice from frozen fruit .. yummy, but lots of sugar. I use sf torani's (like Laura mentioned) for all my sweet flavoring

@Laura: I have no shame. I tried to purée the chicken today with broth. Failed to make it look like Soup, but I tried.

@Ms.AntiBand: thanks, I may try that, but you're right. I don't want the added sugar.

@Sneed: that sounds awesome! I never would have thought of it, but I will be buying sugar-free Jello powder tomorrow!

And also Vitamin d milk with the sugar free pudding packets? I figured that skim has more sugar-not enough stuff thats good for you.

My vitamix pulverizes everything. You can't feel seeds from strawberries. Is this way ok to have strawberries??? I get scared but my vitamix pulverizes most things. I can't wait to ask my doc next week, but if any if you know, please tell me. Thanks.

      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.
