Anyone getting VGS Feb 29th?



Recommended Posts

It isn't the most appealing of packaging. My Dr. office gave me a sample of the chicken Soup and I loved it. I went to their website and bought ($22, maybe) a sample kit which included 2 of all their flavors PLUS a food thermometer PLUS a small shaker container. I have the chocolate splendor for Breakfast every day with soy milk and sometimes drink it hot or mix it in my coffee. The chicken soup mix, I've mixed in with my canned soup I have for lunch for the Protein.

Have either of you tried any Protein powders yet? I found http://unjury.com, I really like their chocolate splendor and chicken Soup. Neither of them have a bad after taste either.

I haven't tried any of their products yet. I also think the name of their company is little strange very close to the word injury. Anyway so glad to have found a couple of folks to connect with in this next month of the journey. I can't believe it. I'll be sleeved on the 22nd of next month.

Agreed! It is a very strange name, but their products are good. I just got my (paid) sample pack from Syntrex (sp?) I tried the lemon tea, it's ok...but has that Protein after taste.

Mine is March 3rd. Right now that seems like forever but I know it will get here quickly. I am excited but also very nervous. I have been reading everything I can and I am already looking into good Protein supplements, etc.

We can do this.

I get it from http://unjury.com Right now I am trying samples I purchased through Syntrex and keeping a log of what I like and don't like. As well as how I tried it and what I liked about it.

Well, I got a call yesterday that my surgery date needs to change. They moved it to the next day, March 1. That really just makes it seem like it's further away, especially since we aren't even in Feb yet!

Did anyone watch the All of me video? It wasn't entirely what I was expecting. But it did show the down side of not trying and the good side of if you do what you are suppose to do and work at it, how this is just a tool to put you on the right path.

I did watch the video. It seemed like a mixed bag for people didn't it? I think it has a lot to do with how you are coming at this. Do you think this is the thing that is going to fix everything? Have you resolved or at least look at the part of you that has disordered eating that is in the head...not in the physical hunger piece. Do you have a therapist who understands the struggles of obese people, people with disordered eating?

      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.
