I will second GBLADY41's critique of BariatricPal MX and Dr. Illan. I was sleeved on 8/7/2017. It was awesome, and the charge was only $4,600. I received the best care ever at Oasis of Hope Hospital. I can not emphasize enough the value and piece of mind that I felt knowing that everything was taken care of for me. All I had to do was fill out an online questionnaire, pay a $500 down payment to hold my surgery spot, and show up at the San Diego Airport. Bariatric Pal MX and Dr. Illan both receive an A+ from me on everything. Give them a try. You will not be sorry!

Try adding sucralose (Splenda) and cinnamon to taste. Delicious! Are you familiar with EZ-Sweetz? It's liquid sucralose and mixes wonderfully with yogurt and everything else. It may seem kind of pricey for a small amount but a little of that stuff goes a really long way. I love it.

hi everyone! I am pre op stage in my journey. I've done some of the required tests but have 4 months to go on pre op diet. Everyone is so helpful and I've learned a lot just reading the posts! I'm hoping to have my surgery in January. I just wanted to to say hi and join in! [emoji38] Sent from my SM-S907VL using BariatricPal mobile app

I struggle with the sourness as well so i put it in a blender with blueberries and srawberries blend it so its smooth that really helps i also sometimes melt the really good dark chocolate and blend that in as well then i spread it out on a tray and freeze it when its frozen i break it up into bits and put it into a container in the freezer and thats my treat after dinner yr getting the protien from the yoghurt and just a hint of chocolate

I'm having my band to sleeve revision (hopefully simultaneously) at the OCC in Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Ariel Ortiz,

I'm glad everything went well. I'll send some healing thoughts your way. best wishes! Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app

My surgery is tomorrow too. Good luck to you! It is normal to be nervous but we will come out on the other side healthier and happy we made this decision. Prayers to you tomorrow.

Agreed, meal planning/prep can get old. I do Paleo recipes and low carb on YouTube along with Keto. These keep it fun and interesting. And theworldaccordingtoeggface.com is a great website. Keep on keeping on. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app
