Those are one the the most popular brands around. A lot like them... I don't.

I need my Protein shakes to be milk based, premier aren't. So I stuck with powders.

You know, now I'm wondering if I'm confusing pure and premier to be one in the same??. Scratch what I said.

I tried a can of it a couple weeks ago when we were out and i was in a pinch. I really liked it. I had the chocolate. ^_^

I went through a jug of the Pure Protein chocolate during my 2 week pre op liquid diet. It was alright. They sell it at Wal-Mart for pretty cheap. It's better than the Body Fortress brand that they also sell at Wal-Mart.

Muscle Milk is pretty good if you want something milk based. They sell this also at Wal-Mart along with Muscletech.

There are so many Protein brands out there now. It takes awhile to find the one that you actually enjoy enough to buy again. There are some really good brands like Isopure, Syntrax, or Bariatric fusion that are on the pricy side. I go back and forth between something on sale at Wal-Mart to something more expensive. While the Premier ready to drink is quite convenient, its also more pricey than Pure Protein. In fact, the Premeir Protein chocolate and Pure Protein Chocolate taste quite similar.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
