  1. My friend just had one done by him!
  2. I don't live in kc anymore, but I'm going trough St. Luke's for surgery. Just looking to expand my support group a little more.
  3. I haven't been scheduled yet, but should be august. I am hoping for late july though!
  4. I tried it today and was not a fan at all! I took maybe two drinks of it. :/
  5. Just realized my auto correct error. Looking not looming! And bufflehead couldn't have said it better!
  6. How does it work when you go to mexico? Do you just correspond with the surgeon and stuff via email? Do you have to do classes and stuff still? Sorry just curious haha. I've never seen anyone talk about the things like that for surgery there.
  7. I don't know. I'm not sure how they officially decide. They told me I would get a letter stating if they thought I needed to make any changes in my life to help better myself. But i don't know if they will say that you shouldn't have surgery in it, they probably pass it on to the surgeon or insurance. I have anxiety issues but I'm aware and am able to deal with it most the time. I am a little worried about that though. We shall see. I'm thinking that they really look for people who had extreme answers, maybe looming for un-controlled disorders that may have them making big desicions without processing it truly.
  8. I had it on Tuesday. It was a little exhausting reading all those questions about depression. My heart goes out to anyone who has ever had or has those thoughts and feelings!
  9. How is everyone mixing? I don't drink milk, so it will always be water for me....I'm a little worried about the deserty ones
  10. Twisted cherry I have mixed feelings on. I HATED it at first, but had just brushed my teeth. Tried it again later and liked it. Thought it tasted like a cherry tootsie roll. But it has the WORST aftertaste! !! I won't be buying any.
  11. Roadside lemonade. .....HEAVEN!
  12. I clearly need to learn how to use the app haha
  13. Haha I didn't realize this was my thread. Let us know what you like! .
  14. I made a thread with reviews good and bad. Not all have been reviewed but it should pop up if you search it. I didn't like apple and crystal sky tasted like little kids toothpaste to me, but I did like the lemon tea a lot. Still many to try though
  15. So far everything seems on track. I have my phsyc evaluation June 2 and my last class June 19.
  16. I'm not scheduled yet, but I'm hoping for late july. It seems like it will go that way, but I'll find out for sure in june!
  17. What is your favorite? I'm thinking about getting a blender bottle and a go stack.
  18. I tried the lemon tea and I really like it. It has been the best so far for me!
  19. I'm going to try another tonight.
  20. No I still have one more class. But all of a sudden I'll have a craving and my mind instantly reminds itself that I'll probably never eat it again so I think it goes into overdrive. It's terrible!
  21. Now that I'm getting closer to submitting for approval, I have cravings for random things! Even after having 2 babies, this still feels crazy to me. I'm trying not to give in to them or at the very least only have a bite of whatever it may be. Am I alone?
  22. I'm surprised that they would even schedule surgery BEFORE being approved. Did you ask if they usually handle it this way? Not that it's a bad thing, just seems backwards. But once you're approved it makes things go quickly. I have to be approved before they will give me a surgery date :/
  23. I'm sitting here sipping on crystal sky's and I can't decide if I like it or not. Some sips remind me of kids toothpaste. I did, however, lick my finger and take dip....that was fantastic! This one also stirred up better than the apple. I just can't put my finger on how this tastes. It's sort of fruity, bubblegum cotton candyish. That's the best way I can describe it. I saw a video on YouTube and a lady said she drinks this one everyday, but she added banana syrup to hers...maybe that's the key. To add a flavor you really like to enhance it, since it is supposed to be mixed fruits.
  24. It's a better deal if you call the company directly. You get 15 samples, one of each flavor, for 15 plus like 1.99 for shipping and it comes in just a few days. But vitamin shoppe also sells it.
  25. I want to know everyone's reviews on these Protein drinks. I have the sample pack and I've only tried the apple flavor. Write good or bad reviews! Apple was ok...it smells really good and then it's sort of a let down once you take a drink. It has a really tart smell but a dull taste. It reminds me of those goo tube candy things. I would drink it again if it was my only option but i won't be buying a tub!
