  1. I was sleeved June 11, 2014 and was sent home with an abdominal binder that I was to wear for at least a week. I can wear it as long as I feel I need to. I still wear it at night (to help me side sleep), and when I know I will be out for a long time. While in the hospital, the bariatric coordinator suggested that a compression garment might help in the long run with loose skin. She suggested the Spanx brand, or other similar types of garments. I am wondering if this is true? If it is, have any of you tried any? What is the best type to buy? Also, what size do I buy? I feel that they are too expensive to buy (and get a size we won 't be in long) if we are quickly shrinking. Thanks for any suggestions! -Julie
  2. I felt the same way. There are savory flavored proteins. Try unjury.com, they have a chicken broth loaded with protein. So you are getting in protein that isn't sweet.
