Dallas Surgeon Dr Gonzalez?
Lauranbob Mc replied to agerpayarkansas's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
most self pays in the DFW metroplex are about that amount. I used Dr Kuhn. also Dr Nicholson is great too -
I was reccommended by my NP to take my B12 every day. since then my energy level has increased 10 fold.

not only do I use this every day to make my protein drinks . I also use the blender to make my ice cream with. My one problem was not getting the mixture light and airy enough before it went into the ice cream maker. I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION !!! use the cookie dough paddles and whip it up. it makes it so thick like pancake batter. Best ice cream that I have made as of yet !!!

the ONLY way I can drink my shake is with ice in a blender so it makes a milkshake. if I try to mix it with a blenderball I gag. luckily I am on 1 shake per day now (morning) and my magc bullet is packed when I am on business trips. good luck

Lauranbob Mc replied to Debvzw's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
when I am at work II never know when I am going tobe able to eat so I ended up drinking up until I do. But I always wait a minimum 30 minutes to drink after and the first sip I have is my vitamin to choke it down. -
My Incisions Itch!
Lauranbob Mc replied to alliegb3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
itching is a part of healing.... very normal. Also... that glue that they use is called dermebond. do not put lotion on it, it will make it break down. -

Daily Vitamins
Lauranbob Mc replied to readytobeslimxoxox's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
your Md must be a bean pole right? There are some physicians that are so against WLS. luckily mine was not and when I told him that I was starting the process he let me know that if I needed anything not to hesitate. -
make your own using your protein mix. The eggface website has great recipies. I make a double batch once a week. and love every bit of it. way better than the stuff you buy in the stores and there is NO guilt afterwards. PS... add a little sugar free carmel on top with sugar free whipped cream

Did You Or Are You Keeping Your Sleeve A Secret?
Lauranbob Mc replied to letsdothis!!!'s topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am a nurse in an emergency room and almost all my co-workers know that I had the sleeve done. I am not ashamed. I was mmorbidly obese, having trouble with every day tasks for my job. I see this as a tool and to me it goves me some accountibility in the food choices that I make. There is SOOOO much temptation at work since there always goodies in the breakroom. all the staff is very encouraging. -
