Does anyone know about this kind? Whether it is a good one or not...tasty or not... They have it at Whole Foods and I still need a vanilla flavor. Thanks!

I am in Piedmont Triad area...Kernersville (aka K-Vegas, lol)

lol. I can't believe you are missing the hospital. Is that sarcasm I hear?

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted when able. ::hugs::

Try my bariatric pantry. You can get 8 different flavors of single servings from Matrix (not the highest on the PDCAAS list. 20 real grams of proteins...posts 23) and there is a Nectar sample pack too which I haven't tried. Awesome website!!!

good luck! and congrats. hospitals suck.

Congrats hon! I hope that things go as well for me. *fingers crossed!*

Congrats!!!

Congrats! How are you feeling?

Love how incrediably decisive they are, smirks

every pound you lose will make the surgery and recovery easier for you! Good job and keep it up!

Congrats! So glad it is going well for you!

My best friend at work had hers done yesterday! We are super excited to be doing this together

Congrats! My pre-op appointment is August 6th. I have my surgery on August 15th but no time yet. It could be either morning or afternoon. I won't find out until the day before. Is this normal? meh. But it is very exciting. I know you will do great!!

Good luck!!

Yeah....he's cute, lol

Nice! We can be bariatric buddies!

I completely understand. I am tired of asking for seat extenders, certain older cars I can't buckle up, not fitting in small chairs...the urge to be a healthier me and knowing that this will be the tool I need for sucess is what is getting me through. Do you have a surgery date yet?

When is your surgery? Mine is August 15th...and I am having the worst time sleeping. I am super anxious My best friend just had hers yesterday and she told me she didn't see the surgeon at all! And we have the same surgeon. I know myself and I will need to see him before surgery. I mean for the love of god, the man is operating on me. (plus side....my surgeon...NOT hot, lol)

Congrats hon!

It does really depend on your insurence. I had to get pre-approval, then about a month out they confirmed with what my deductable would be. (only 147 dollars!) With paying the highest insurence possible it made it a lot less expensive then my best friend who just had the surgery today. (1200 dollars) I wish you the best of luck. you should call your insurence and let them know what you are looking to do. Bekki (surgery date Aug 15th!!)

I haven't had my surgery yet (Aug 15th!!!!) But from what I heard the severe drop in calories is what is so exhausting. Make sure you are drinking your Protein shakes. They will be your best friend. Good luck!!!

That is awesome! How much walking are you doing? I have my surgery 2 weeks from today.

I was doing my fitness pal prior to the 3 week diet. I got sick of it yelling at me for being under 1200 calories. I'm a validation person. If I am doing what I am supposed to I don't want to be criticized. So maybe when they add a gastric bypass option I will rejoin. But prior I did love it.
