Panda, I brought the pure Protein bars yesterday. 20g of protein in One Bar and they taste pretty good. I also like the can shakes they are 35g of protein per serving.

Glad you liked them!: D. I try to have one a day as my snack. I like to keep my protein intake as close to 100g a day as possible. Glad you liked them. I've researched the Quest bars online and these are way more affordable. A lot of times they're 10 for $10 at the grocery store.

I was told by my nutritionist I could do them at 6 weeks. My surgeon personally recommends Quest Bars. They are like 25 or 26g of Protein. You can get them online or GNC sells them too.

      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.
