  2. If you can't find it near you, it is also sold on Amazon
  3. Pb2 is really good in the Costco Premier chocolate protein shakes. It is like having a melted Reeses peanut butter cup:-)
  4. Rocky start but now you can heal. Best of luck and no looking back except to compare before and after pictures!
  5. oh flan, that is liquid gold! Well now you know flan is OFF the list. I bought a new car last night and you know how long all that paper sigining crap goes on. So by the time we finished there was only fast food open, I ate my first (and LAST) McDonlads chicken nugget since my surgery. One single nugget sent my sleeve into a frenzy!
  6. Remember to tell the kids that you are not mad at them. Kids will internalize things, so you need to keep reminding them. Even the super young ones, tell them how much you love them and you are not mad at them. Trust all of us on this site, the moodieness will go away. Hang in there!
  7. I do Beriwise bars. It does take ahwile to eat a whole one, like all day:-)
  8. Trust me the short temperedness will go away. I was super scared I was going to stay a b***h, my poor husband. But it does go away, well replaced with a little depression then it goes back to normal. Hang in there tell your kids mom is going to be a little different but it won't last.
  9. I take all my Vitamins first thing in the morning when I get up at 3:45. Then I drink a Protein shake on the drive to work, which is an hour drive! Around 8:00 I have yogurt, then lunch at 11:00 usually something chicken, 2:00 is a cheese stick or nuts, 4:00 another Protein Shake for the drive home then a little bite of chicken before cardio class. dinner is aftern the gym so usually around 7:00 and it is turkey or chicken. I drink continuously in between except for the 30 minutes before or after. I know I don't get in all the Water I should. Make time for exercise to help with sagging skin. You will be losing weight even without it, so don't be tempted to let that be the way you lose. Still get out there and exercise. My life has changed and it seems like I am either exercising or eating all the time. Good luck you will love it!
  10. I went to Mexico, my surgeon was Dr. Verboonen. You will be fine and so freaking happy once you see the weight start dropping off:)
  11. Welcome, I belive you will find this to be an awesome site for help. It is so great to know you are not alone in an adventure. And feeling week last about 5 or 6 weeks.
  12. A few meals here and there won't stretch your sleeve. I also had to learn to measure my food because just one bite over made me sick. Really learn what that feeling is before you over eat. The feeling is there we just were not use to it.
  13. I also do the Premier chocolate and spruce it up with 1/2 teaspoon of smooth peanut butter and blend with some ice, it taste like a beanut butter cup...so delicious. You will find most of the shakes need some enhancements:-)
