I figured that I will save so much on food (rubbisb I have been feeding myself) that I can afford to buy good quality on Proteins. A guy I work with uses RAW brand and he said it tastes good. You may not be able to get it in stores in the US but try online.

Yes I've looked. Looking for suggestions of the best tasting. No chalky textures or bad after taste.

Taste is SUPER subjective. I enjoy Isopure, Gold Standard, Synthia-6 and Muscle Milk powders. As well as Gold Standard Casein Proteins (Casein is a slow acting Protein good for night time usage).

I really like the Syntrax Matrix and Syntrax Nectar powders. You can also get a variety pack on Amazon for like 20 or 30 bucks that is a variety of single serve flavors to try out! Which is awesome, because I hate spending a ton of money on a tub of Protein Powder and then finding that it sucks! I did the Syntrax variety pack and then purchased a tub of one of the chocolate flavors. 😀

I ordered some genpro from Bariatric Pal Store, to add extra to things. Bari- bud has used it, so. I ordered on her recommendation. Had also considered Body Fortress from Wal-Mart, one of the Guy Bari- buds liked it a lot.😋

well I am out sitting on my side porch. Ordered. some items from Bariatric Pal Store Monday. Should have been delivered Wednesday, got a text from them stating it was in my town and the USPS postal person would be bringing it. Oh Goody Goody, I think, then I get a text stating they needed a signature and I wasn't home. WRONG' the front porch, where my mailbox is, right next to my bedroom window, would have heard them, and although I have 2 more porches my house is small enough I can hear knocks there also. So tried to track this thing down, BPS stated We sent it, why didn't You want it? Oh I do want it, please help me find where it is. Called the number off of Google, national number for USPS, says you have reached the Customer Service # no live person , went into 3 minute dissertation about the Carolinas🌲🌴 and how water-logged the Post Offices are there. Hey, I am sorry for them, been praying for them ever since it first happened but hardly responsive to my problem. Never a sign of a live person! So dug around the house and found an old phone book, which I hadn't recycled yet. Glory Be, a local phone number for the postmaster! Started calling, and kept on until I had to go to a doctor's appointment. Have a theory on this one, yes they have a number, either shut it off or leave it off the hook, only use it to call out, don't want incoming. Never got anything but busy signal.


So here I sit, on my side step, attractively clad in an Ohio State sweatshirt and a long tie dyed skirt, remember I'm 3 weeks post surgery, Levi 501s and I have not renewed our friendship, zippers on my sore site scars , dont think so. Somewhere between 9AM and 10 AM they should be here. And it's maybe 55 degrees, if I get sick or develop bladder spasms, can I sue the government? No? Well it was a nice thought in passing!💇


FYI the stuff from Bariatric Pal store is very nice, been enjoying the small amounts I ordered before, this is a BIGGER order.My only gripe, it is horrid getting the order placed, maybe because I am older and crabbier than most, but taking a hour to complete it? Somethin' wrong there, Lucy,Ricardo! So if I don't freeze to death maybe the box and I will get together?😦🎁😋

Update ITS HERE! Sweet Freema Jones ---they have an uber cute postal person delivering today! Not my usual 40ish tired looking dude. Hey I may be getting old but I still see good! Promised if I would wait until he delivered the next block and a half he would bring it back! Okey Doaky I'll sit right here and wait! A signature and it's mine, all mine! Haven't opened it just yet, Christmas isn't for 3 months, might as well prolong the JOY! But it will be good, Bariatric Pal stuff usually,is. Why enrich Amazon , the greedy. base-born souls they are, when I can shop at Alex Brechers store where things are geared to US?

I love their Syntrax brand and the coffee/latte/mocha flavors are hands down my favorite while I'm on a caffeine restriction.

      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.
