I'm not fond of the Protein Shakes either..... I just measure out enough for 64 grams per shake, I have the shake for either brakfast or a mid morning snack, my surgeon says miminum of 64 grams of Protein a day. Any other protein is bonus :) I use Isopure dutch cholocate

I got the same thing from my nutritionist they want you to spread it out all day long not in one sitting. And would like you to get it from food not by drinking it or eating Protein Bars. They are good for when you can't have a meal not instead of

I've been drinking the Premier protien shakes in chocolate from SAMs club. They are 30 gr Protein, 160 cal 4 carbs and less than 1 gr sugar. Very tasty! $18.99 for a case of 12 shakes pre made.

      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.
