I also drink the lean shakes. Takes me almost 4 hours to get in 14 ozs. Have you tried mixing unflavored Protein powder in foods like mashed potatoes, yogurt, sf pudding, etc?

I use the Isopure Dutch Cholocate...its the only one I found so far that I can tolerate. I am almost 9 months post op and have tried many different shakes. I use as little milk and Water as possible so I dont' have to drink so much. I mostly use the shake as my Breakfast because they are sooooo filling to me. Stay away from the Protein Shots they are discusing.... really !!! After a while you just get use to it, I would rather suffer drinking the shakes than lose my hair.< /p>

      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.
