  1. Do u have any secrets you would like to share with us ?
  2. I purchased protein ex samples. They use a different kind of protein which a lot of people say isn't natural because it's made from collagen, my doctor told me I can try it but I know most don't recommend it. It does have a taste that most don't like but when you mix it into yogurt or whatever it's not that bad.
  3. Please keep in touch! God bless I know you will be ok.
  4. He is amazing! Glad u had a great experience.
  5. Lol you are correct! And they ate made in the U S of A! Lol
  6. Oh of course, I was really confused. I understand , I'm just the type that doesn't like to be mean about others surgeons. I think all of us are going thru something major.
  7. In the other post you talked about doctor Alvarez. Now I'm confused?!?
  8. I've told almost everyone I know. I feel like I'm admitting I need help and I know I new it. I can care less what others think of me. Love me or not I'm doing this for myself. If u want to judge then that's their problem. But I am proud of who I am and my accomplishments. I love myself and love life. I just want to gain my life back by not being insecure and feeling confident. Amen!

  15. IMO, that's too many carbs, maybe I'm wrong? Sorry if I'm not much help.
  16. Thanks wheet! I've got to look into that. I'm going to mx, but I'm sure they have support groups here in Houston. I really want to try the cappuccino flavor and strawberry mousse. Sounds delish!
  17. I've heard several people talk about syntrax nectar but really want to get opinions before I order the sample packets. How do they taste? Aftertaste? How do most of you use it, with water or do u mix it into ur yogurts and other foods? Tired of spending money on protein I can't tolerate.... Thanks!

  20. Thank goodness for all those who support and understand, as for those others, tell them to try it on their own their whole lives and see what they say. They don't understand. It's not like we just woke up and said I'm going to have WLS. I, for one, have had this struggle most my life (20 years) I'm now 30. So tell them to kiss ur a** and have a great day!
  21. Dr. Alvarez is out of a hospital, but which ever surgeon u choose I'm sure will take care of u.
