    Shakes to shake things up?

    I replaced one meal with protein drink .. I got gout when I was on the liver diet which was 4 drinks for two weeks .. so I watch how many drinks .. it is scary when scale doesn’t move ..

    Gout attack

    I had to drink 4 protein drinks for two wks before surgery .. I got gout 3 days before surgery .. then every time I drank the protein drink ..I read gout because of fast weight loss .. nut said to try 1/2 protein or plant based ... plus lots water .. good luck .. gout is bad

    Back Issues

    I need a new hip and got the sleeve to lose weight to get the hip .. I was on nsaids and in pain ... now not allowed nsaids .. allergic to Tylenol.. only choice is OxyContin.. which I can't function.. check to see what meds they will allow you on if you get surgery .. my pain is worse each day .. down 75 lbs

    Any August 2017 Sleevers?

    Big mgezzy.. I need a new hip so I just got the sleeve on 8/21... I bones really bothered me before I started my two wk pre op diet .. I also had to go off my Advil which didn't help the bones .. my bones are better now and I lost 31 lbs just on the pre op diet .. when your bones hurt and not as active 20 lbs is easy to go on .. hard to get off .. just take a day at a time
