Chocolate cappuccino protein shake ...one scoop (not the 2 suggested serving size), Java pro (1/2 scoop -- 1.5 is a serving), ice, almond mild, mixed in a blender. Yumm! I found java pro too strong on its own.

I have a few pair of jeans available. Venezia and also some Shapewear - great jeans with a "sliming panel" in the tummy and thighs. I can ship a few in a flat rate box. Let me know if you are interested. (send me a message)

How the heck do you keep your carbs under 50 when a banana is 30 carbs?!
SkinnyScrapper replied to kclaws's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I don't. Count carbs I just don't eat any pure carbs. ..bread, pasta, rice, cereal, potatoes. If there are a few carbs in other foods that is fine but I always look for more protein than carbs. I finally learned to eat salad at 7 months and that was great. Fruit is ok for me...but small amounts. -

Rating protein powders
SkinnyScrapper replied to Oregondaisy's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I just finished a Jay Robb orange...like a creamsicle. I also like the pina colada flavor, but not as good. My all time favorite is Chocorite - peanut butter & chocolate and also the Cappuccino - very good. Click is also good for an iced coffee experience. I tried java pro but that is really a strong coffee flavor, even when I only use half, and not whey Protein. I have been combining one scoop with a scoop of vanilla Isopure, that is OK until I use it up. Also, I really like Matrix strawberry cream. -
Edison/New Brunswick here...

Starting my pre op friday 5-23
SkinnyScrapper replied to momheartsdad's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was only allowed three shakes per day, plus sf Jello and sf ice pops. The first 2 days were tough...then after that I didn't mind it as much. I felt this was the beginning of my journey and just something I had to do..I didn't crave food after those 2 days. You will make it through...a little at a time. -

Mothers day scheduled at a buffet ... Lol
SkinnyScrapper replied to squeaker31's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My family scheduled my mom's 80th birthday celebration when I was 10 days post op at an Italian restaurant! I did ok. Just took a bite of some ricotta for an appetizer and then had the broth Only in the tortellini soup. You I'll find you can work your way around most meals. 0pizza and Pasta are the only challenge for me if nothing else is available. You will do fine and don't worry about wasting did or money. Your health comes first! -
Matrix makes a decent unflavored protein ..no smell. Get or at bariatric choice.

Losing pounds but not sizes
SkinnyScrapper replied to Jaguilar's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt the same way....I thought I was going to be in 24s forever. I realize now that I was really a 26 and squeezing into 24's. It was about 40 lbs before I started changing sizes. The sizes change faster now - need fewer lbs to go down one size when the sizes are smaller. I am losing more slowly but the sizes are going down :-) -
Chocolite Peanut Butter chocolate is the best in my opinion. I get it at Bariatic choice. Let me know if you want a referral code for 20% off. I also really like Matrix strawberry (and their unflavored is really great at 40 calories a scoop) - also at Bariatric Choice. GNC Cookies and Cream is good, too. I have several flavors that I try different ones every day. I love my shakes with unsweetened almond milk and ice in my nutribullet.

Try some of the clear Protein drinks. GNC has a really good protein coconut Water out now - Cocotein. Isopure clear protein is great and got me through those first couple of weeks. Lots of flavors - and Amazon will deliver a case for you for free. unjury has a good strawberry sorbet which is better when you mix it with a pack of Crystal Light lemonade. Some of the Matrix fruit flavors are good too... Whey 2 Go - 50 calorie protein water packet. Available on Amazon Hope some of these help...hang in there! I love my Protein Drinks. I miss it when I don't have one in the morning.
