Most of the companyies only give out so many samples a month. We had this issue over at the sleeve forum when I first started making the list. If you wait a few weeks and try again most of the time they will send you some samples. We also noticed that some times they say they dont give free sample and come to find out people were getting samples 2 weeks later.

So just try again after thanksgiving. If you get another e-mail saying they dont have samples can you please post what companies they were so I can remove them from the list.

Over half the companies on this list no longer offer free samples, I contacted them all today and the half that replied back to me said no

Sorry posted the wrong day. It is Thursday March 20th not Thursday. 6pm-7:30pm

This sounds great! My first Baltimore thread I come across and it definitely sounds like a winner. But just to clarify, is it Thursday March 20th? Your original post says Tuesday the 20th but Tuesday is the 18th, so I just want to be sure.

As of today nectar is aboard and will be sending us free samples to hand out at the event.

Last year we had a bunch. So far this is what we have coming that we know of. Bariatric Advantage, Neighbor Care Pharmacy, Nutrametrix, Isopure, Pure Protein, Celebrate Vitamins, Quest, Recharge, Cabot cheese, smoothie King, Ostrim, Isopure, Bariatric Foodie lady came and made shakes and sold her book.

We also have samples from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, PB2, Detour bars, and Coboni that we will be giving out to take home.

I also made Crab stuffed devil eggs and others made Protein taco Soup and cheesy chicken made with Unjury protein cheese sauce.

Last year we had little over 200 people show up.

Every year my hospital (Siani Hospital of Baltimore) hosts a Protein party for people that either had or are thinking of having bariatric surgery. We have vendors show up to answer questions and hand out free sample of their product. This is being held on Tuesday March 20th 6-7:30pm. We also have door prizes.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Hello everyone I am from the sleeve forum and since they combined everything I figured a topic I started over there would also help out here. I am making a list of companies that will send out free samples to anyone that requests them.

Here is the link: http://www.bariatric...g-free-samples/

The list is growing as I fine and others fine new companies willing to give out free samples. This is great for new people and anyone wanting to try some new things without spending the money to do so.

Hope it helps a few people.

Does anyone know where the list is for free samples? I looked at it a couple weeks ago even emailed a couple companies. But I cannot find it now!

Hello,

You are in luck here is a link to a post I made with a list of companies that give out free samples. I hope it helps.

The post is pinned under the food and nutrition area. It is the first pinned post.

Ok everyone I am finally able to access the new site. So ill be updating this list over the next few days.

the other weekend I found out if you go into GNC they have taste sample of some of their pre made Protein drinks. They allowed me to sample their lean shake (pumpkin spice) and muscle milk. So for anyone wanting to try something but didn't want to spend the money you can ask if they have a sample you can try. not sure if this is all GNC's or just the 2 near me. Doesn't hurt to ask.

Everyone is different. How many times are you eating a day? I eat about 5-6 times a day every 3-4 hours. Also you getting all your Protein and Water in? This could slow things down as well.

I wouldnt read to much into it just follow your doctors orders and if you havenet start doing some type of work out.

I do a Protein Drink before and after work outs. Or something small food wise with Protein like a egg and cheese or a Quest bar. most of the time its a Protein Shake before and after.

I have a sweet frog down the road from me. This is just like a froyo. I use it as a weekend treat. I get a small with some fruit in it. no candies and things. I do the no sugar added flavors. But I just started doing this and I am 9 months out. Everyone is different about how they feel when they eat different things.

Made this yesterday and LOVE it:

I had this over the weekend. It was so good.

GNC has a pumpkin spice Protein Shake that are pretty good. I also know there are some recipes around for pumpkin flavor Protein Shakes that you can make yourself floating around.

I ended up buying 24 bottles of the pumpkin spice lean shakes over the weekend. Plan on stocking up on them before they stop making them.

Am i missing something? Bananas are not listed on ingredients but you talk about adding banana?.... How much banana?

TIA!

instead of using apple sauce you could use over ripe banana's. I must of missed it while posting the ingredients. Apple sauce or banana's help keep the cake moist.

Hello, my surgery was Jan. 21st 2013. I started out weighing 360lbs and wearing 4xl shirts and size 44-46 waist pants. In the last 9 months I have lost 140lbs and now weigh 220lbs and wear xl shirt and down to a size 32-34 waist pants. Here is before and now pictures since a picture might help you more.

where do you find the cheese Protein mix? I looked on their site and couldn't find it?

Here is the link to the unjury cheese.

Thanks just ordered the Ostrim I had never heard of them before although I had ostrich meat in Aruba and enjoyed it. I love this site.

They also have turkey ones. I didnt like the ostrich or elk ones.

For anyone who likes cheese popcorn, Unjury has a Protein cheese powder. I take some pop corn and put it in a baggy with the cheese powder and shake it up. Gives you some protein with the snack.< /p>

Not sure how far out you are but my go to Snacks are Quest bars, mixed nuts, or Ostrim sticks (protein packed slim jim).

Its mostly head hunger. Once you start getting fluids in and start Protein Drinks that will go away.
