I drink Chike Very vanilla every day & love it. Did not like Unjury but a lot of people do. My doc said he tried the Isopure that his nutr tries to push on people & said it was nasty & that he didn't have the heart to encourage people to drink it. Lol Nashua Nutrition is an online store that sells samples of a lot of Proteins including Syntrax. I think they are $1.95 each.

I'm in Greensboro and had surgery on 4/15 with dr Fuzz in Winston Salem. It was almost 6 months to the day from my very first visit. BCBS approved with no headaches.

I'm doing great! I live in Greensboro and my surgery was 5/20/13, SW 318 & CW 238. I'm mentally preparing myself for a stall (which I have not had yet) or my weight loss to slow down. I hope everyone else is doing well.

So far the "Oh Yeah" Protein drinks are good. I couldn't do the Isopure. I even bought one to try and mix with something I liked and still thru it away. Nasty!!

I used to hate vanilla then figured out with a couple squirts of mio it's like a smoothie. Now I just do vanilla and flavor it like that

In Greensboro.4/15/13 DOS 430; Current 360. I am tracking about 1000 calories a day but have struggled to lose over the past 2 months. Going back to simpler options to see if that kick starts.

Where did you have your surgery and who was your surgeon if you don't mind me asking?

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
