Yes, OMG it's the best and it's free. You can log what you eat/drink and it breaks down the Protein, carbs and fats so you know what your intake was. The reminders can be set however you want and it pops up as a subtle tone when it goes off on my phone.

awesome what is it called again? I am trying to look it up now lol

In Corpus...so glad I did this. I don't regret this one bit. Started my journey in Jan, had my surgery in May. It was the pits having to wait, but it's good practice with eating, sipping, etc.
Answering your question to ThickGirl5683, I'm one month post now. I drink my liquids just fine. The sipping stopped about 2 weeks post. Thankfully! Still can't chug, but you can drink good. It is hard to cram the liquids and trying to get your food in for the day. It can be done though...and it gets easier every day.
Congrats on your journey hon. Be blessed!!

I am going to that same place except my surgeon is his partner Dr.Gopal

I had a follow up with Dr Gopal this last time. Do you like him? He's nice, but I didn't take to him as well as Stegemann. Nevertheless, you're in a great office/team.

He is real nice. Very thorough explains the procedure well... Made me feel comfortable. I am just really nervous and worried about getting a leak.

I'm in Houston, too (Katy). My pre-op is tomorrow and my surgery August 1 at Memorial Hermann Memorial City hospital. My surgeon is Dr. Primomo. Anyone else use him? A friend highly recommended him and so far I am pleased.

I am from League City, Tx. I received notice this morning that I have my approval, so my surgery date is 08/16/17! I am so happy that I will be getting the VSG, and getting rid of my Realize band that has NEVER worked. Dr. Du, in Webster and his team are super! They have been very helpful, and I am looking forward to the day when I can say that I am no longer large challenged!

Hello fellow Texans!

I'm from El Paso. I had my VSG October 2016, and have recently hit my goal. Good luck to all and best wishes for a happier, healthier new life!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
