  1. Wow! It really flatters your figure.
  2. I’ve mixed Tazo Chai Skinny Latte with Vanilla Premier Protein and really liked the taste.
  3. Can someone please tell me what NSV means?
  4. That is awesome! Congratulations! I can only hope that once I have surgery I can do all the things I used to do like kayaking, hiking, etc.
  5. Wow! Wow! Wow! Congratulations! You look fabulous!
  6. Congratulations! Fantastic results!

  11. 25 pounds in one month is awesome and it does show! You look great!
  12. Congratulations!!!!! Amazing!!!!! Inspirational!!!!
  13. Your transformation is awesome!!!! Great work!
  14. I saved this advice in my notes so I can refer back to it. I am still pre-surgery, scheduled for January 2, 2018.
  15. Congratulations! You look FABULOUS!!!! I definitely see a BIG change. Slower loss is better in the long run.
  16. Hang in there! I started the process in May 2017 and I won’t be sleeved until January, in part because I will be taking a vacation over Thanksgiving and I didn’t want the pre-op diet or the post-op period to interfere with the VSG. I’m okay waiting until after the holiday......new year, new me! You will get there!
  17. I am so excited! I finally have a surgery date of January 2, 2018 - New Year, New Me!!!!!
  18. I like Premier Protein as well as JBN protein shakes. JBN (Just Be Natural) lets you try 3 different flavors for $5. The mixed berry is delicious!
  19. You can read Medicare's coverage determination at the following site: https://www.cms.gov/medicare-coverage-database/details/ncd-details.aspx?NCDid=57&ncdver=5&CoverageSelection=Both&ArticleType=All&PolicyType=Final&s=Iowa&KeyWord=bariatric+surgery&KeyWordLookUp=Title&KeyWordSearchType=And&bc=gAAAABAAAAAAAA%3D&%20CMS%20NCD%20on%20bariatric%20surgery
  20. I would also like to know what you did to keep sagging skin at bay? (Though I do suspect it's because you are young and therefore your skin elasticity is great!) I haven't had surgery yet, but I am in my 60's and I am afraid that my skin is not going to bounce back. You look marvelous!
