AnyWhey hands down. 17grms of Protein @ 70 calories per scoop so it doesn't pack the most punch but it doesn't taste like anything and that means a lot coming from me as I'm sensitive to weird tastes. Best of luck

You seem to have an arsenal of recipes! Thanks a lot! I'm adding them all to Epicurious for when I get to the mushy stage

Those adorable little girls are in front of Walmart again selling them devil Cookies. Stay away. I am hiding under my bed for the next two weeks !!!! :tounge_smile:

those nasty little girls parading as good sales people, i think they are "the devil" I'll join you under your bed or mine.
Boy are they scary, It's either them or us, I think we should temporarily leave the country. What do you think?

Hi Guyyysss !!! I've been a lurker on this site for a while now. I decided that I'd post something since the surgery is no longer a pipe dream but a reality. I've been approved!!! Surgery date is February 1!!! My emotions run the gamut right about now lol.
But I must admit this ain't my first weight loss surgery rodeo.
My mom and I had a bands put in Jan 2009. She shelled out $20,000 just like that. It worked...in the beginning. I went from 208 to 159. Looked pretty friggin hott too. But I was miserable with my band. I was losing weight and following the rules to a T but I knew the band wasn't for me. I NEVER felt any restriction so my weight loss in my opinion was a result of militant calorie restricting and exercise bulimia. Then complications lead to loss of effectiveness which lead to weight gain and ultimately removal. I gained all the weight back and then some.
But now I've been approved, via insurance this time! No strict pre-op diet, no red tape, and a BMI that barely met the requirement. I've been thanking my lucky stars every day.
Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself and thank all of you guys for your informative, helpful, and inspiring posts that made and will continue to make me want to take control of my health. I hope the surgery brings me much needed success and I'll def be updating regularly.
Thanks for reading )
