    I bought so many and hated them all after a while (wasted a lot of money). except one. I'm one year out and Looooove all three Premiere Protein flavors, especially choc and strawberry (like Quick). . costco here has all three flavors

    on the website for Truelemon I believe they have their own version of an Arnold Palmer. BJ's is a wholesale store, like costco.

    Patoonces got a reaction from BeagleLover in worries   
    I totally felt like you did early on. Especially because the liquids and purees were not satisfying me so I thought that there is no way the solids will. Boy I was wrong. There are even days when I order a big plate of food only to feel silly when I realize how little of it I can eat at one sitting. My hunger is still here, my mind still thinks I can eat a whole plate of food or a couple of bites of appetizer and then my entree or half plate I ordered. But alas, I can not. And that is cool! You will not be able to clean your plate, I guarantee you. But keep in mind, some days a few bites and I'm done and other days a few more and I'm done. Every day my restricdtion varies a little, not sure why. You are going to be great don't worry!

    in case I didn't reply I know what you mean, I had almost an allergic puffiness around each one I thought I was losing my mind! Nothing helped too much except time, 3 days, but at the end I bought Benedryl Spray and it did help a little btw

    so, I'm starting to get sick of the Bariatric Advantage multi flavor. The problem with most of the non-chewables are that they are so huge and the tasty gummies don't have much if any Iron.
    Anyone know of a good one with plenty of Iron?

    Patoonces got a reaction from Averiex in Sushi   
    I guess the only thing that concerns me 5 weeks out is the rawness if the sushi. Most of it, at least most if what I used to get. I'm concerned about the chance of the fish having something wrong with it and having newly cut stomach put at risk. Otherwise I'd be eating salmon sashimi all of the time!

    As silly as it sounds I swung my arm around all crazy (only if you don't have bad shoulders) and beat on my upper chest like Tarzan and next morning was better

    I'm on second week and over week already on purées. I'm hungry a decent amount of the time my friend swears once I'm on normal food I'll be more satiated.

    Feel like a quitter a failure. Day 5 on purées and I'm losing my mind. I want to eat, I'm hungry, I want to cheat. I don't need lectures about how I did this need to follow instruction which I am just losing my mind. I feel subtitle restriction and can take in liquids and purées very easily. I'm already sick of Protein Drinks I all sorts. Having a tough day could use help.

    Patoonces got a reaction from Southjerzjoy in questions that keep coming up   
    So, my surgery is set for March 28th with Dr. Strohm in NJ. I'm excited and nervous. I keep thinking about stupid things like "will I be able to eat sushi again? How hard is it to never drink with a meal as I realize now I wash almost every sip down with a few guzzles. How hard is it to never have a beer or seltzer like I enjoy now? I'm going to Disney this summer, what if I'm outside in the sweatering heat and can't get enough Water down?
