I saw those at Walmart in a 4pk. I think I'm going to get some today. I about threw up my Protein this morning. All I've had all day is Water... <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

I took a friend back to SAMs today to get her some.. She had gastric sleeve in March 2013.. She's lost 80 lbs.. If you get them let me know what u think. I really like the choc! Do u like Campbell's chicken noodle Soup? That's what I eat. I add a can of Water to the Soup and just eat the broth.. I also add pepper to mine to give it more flavor while its cookin.. I don't like the bullion.. Let me know what ya think?

If anyone is looking for a good Protein shake ' date=' I use Syntha 6 Protein Powder . The best is the chocolate cake batter . It's so good . The vanilla ice cream literally tastes like melted vanilla ice cream . 22 g of Protein for 4 oz of liquid . It's around 28 for a 2.91 lb tub . There are 28 4 oz servings in it .[/quote']

Where do you get it?

Hey I was sleeved July 8th' date=' my doc cleared me for purees day 3. Mashed potatoes are one of my favorites, but use caution while they taste good they are lore oin Protein (2g per 4oz) they are one of those things that doesn't taste different because its not altered the way other purees. But you have to focus on Protein. I am 2 weeks out today and hot my first stall.

SW - 274 (day of surgery, no pre op diet)

CW - 254 for 2 days now.

I think looking at the scale its awesome, you feel amazed every time it goes down, but when it doesn't don't freak. Stalls are normal. You just have to remind yourself that, and make sure your focused on making sure what your eating is right.[/quote']

I was also sleeved on July 10!! I check the scale everyday. Last two days have stayed the same however I didn't get my protein in and I think that is why. I'm looking for a good hair Vitamin to avoid losing my hair!!!

I don't think there is anything out there that can prevent Hair loss after this surgery because your hormones are so off balance. But the Vitamin Biotin can help speed up hair regrowth. But it will still take some time until your hormones get back to normal.

I take Biotin.. My hair dresser recommended it.. So, I started takin it right away.. Anything that will help because I already have fine hair. I take my Multivitamin, Vitamin d3 1000, Biotin, Calcium, & b12.. Remember not to take your Multivitamin and Calcium together if your multivitamin has Iron it.. U have to take Atleast 2-3 hrs apart..

Thanks I will look up that Vitamin can I get it at Walmart?

I found this for you..

What is Biotin?

Biotin is a Vitamin B component that provides your body with Vitamins and nutrients needed to allow your hair and even your nails to grow strong and fast. It boosts your metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and Proteins that are needed for thick hair and increased growth. Biotin is sometimes also known as vitamin H, and it helps protect your body against dryness and brittle hair follicles that prevent Hair growth. Not only does it do that, but biotin increases the elasticity of your hair follicles and the hair cortex, to help prevent some of the breakage and further damage that stops your hair from thickening and growing well. When taking in biotin regularly and in the right proportions, your hair will thicken and give off the appearance that you have more hair than you actually do. There are no harmful side effects of biotin, but you should always be sure to take the amount prescribed to you.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
