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 grew up in Hickory right down the street from Frye. Is that where you had your surgery?

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?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
