  1. The Best place to get the Premier protein Shakes is COSTCO!! Self Paying patients be aware! I am so thankful that my insurance covered! The hospital bill was 110,000 but my insurance negociated the amount down to 25,000 and I only paid 1,000 !!! Not including the bill from the Dr!!
  2. I'm from Richmond too. Just had Surgery with Dr. Brengman also. How is everything going with you all? Any support groups to recommend other than Dr. Brengman's Henrico group?
  3. I love the Vanilla ans Chocolate! The Strawberry is the worst !!!
  4. Have you tried the Protein Shake from Costco. It is called Premier Protein. I love the vanilla, like the chocolate and hate the strawberry! The good thing is that they have almost no Carbs and 30gr of protein per 11oz I have one in the morning ... I sip for 1 hour then another at the end of trhe day if I need extra protein.
  5. Thanks Trying not to have a meltdown over here.
  6. I got sleeved on Dec 15. Went back to work on Jan 6 and I am doing great. Eating my mushy foods, getting 60 grams of protein down and at least 48 oz of water. I struggle with the water. On the first 2 weeks I lost a lot. I am down 32 lbs but for week 3 and 4 post op I have been kind of stable. Anyone having a Plateau like me?? I am for the first time 100% sure that I am doing everything correct. So I am a little confused and worried. What am I doing wrong??
