I got it at the Vitamin Shoppe. Looks like they make fruit punch as well. I'm going to probably get a case from amazon.

Hi All, I'm fairly new to the boards and just started my pre-op diet today. I will be sleeved on 1/8/12-- whoo hoo!!! I cannot tolerate milk or milky substance things so I knew this whole Protein shake thing was going to be a challenge. So after much research I think I found something AWESOME! The "proteinblitz" by designer whey is brand new & 30g protein, 1carb, 120 calories, & 1g sugar. When cold it tastes like grape kool-aid. Enjoy!! Please share if you've found something you think is "non-milky" and good also.

Amazing success! What's your secret? I'm right at your starting & will be sleeved 1/8/13. Would love to know your exercise & meal plan.

I'm January 8th @ 7:30am. I start my pre-op diet New Years Day!!!

Wow!!! What great results... Congrats! What's your secret?

Wow!!! Great job.... Awesome results!!! You are almost my same starting weight. I'd love to hear what you think was the secret to your success. Diet? Exercise? Any key tips/tricks? My surgery is 1/8/13...

Wow!! Great job!! Would you be willing to share your exercise & eating plans? I'm set for surgery 1/8/13 & only hope to have your success.

Thanks All!! How long were you off work?

Did you have Dr. Sabir? How'd it go?

Did anyone have their surgery robotically? I was just informed today that my surgeon only does it that way now. If so, how did it go?

Wow!! That's so quick... Congrats!! Did you feel like the pre-op class is informative? Also how long does he make you do a pre-op diet for?

No, have not gotten any feedback. However, good to hear your co-workers did well with him. I just finished my stress test on Thursday & should be able to submit to insurance in a week or so. How long after you submitted to insurance was you surgery scheduled?

I'm also going with Dr. Sabir... What have you heard about him?

Thanks all! I'm hoping for a bike I hate the treadmill...

As part of all my required pre-op testing I have to take a stress test. I'm a nervous wreak & haven't been able to sleep. The test is Thursday.... Has anyone else done this test? If so any tips?

Looks like I won't be having surgery until November/December. However, to ensure I can mentally prepare for the liquid pre-op diet I am going to give it a shot for 2 weeks. What's a sample pre-op diet you did??

Anyone with Independance Blue Cross? How was the approval process?

Hi All, Did anyone have to do a stress test prior to surgery? If so, how'd it go?
