  1. i bought this Protein powder from bariatric fusions online...it was really good
  2. i didnt want to post this on the site, but wanted to let you know i work for the catholic health system and i chose to have my surgery at bgh. now going with caruana you can get in faster but i think hoffman/posner are more thorough and strict and i needed that. while hoffman ended up being my surgeon dr posner was the name i was given. both docs are great

  3. i went to suburban psychiatric associates. i saw a nurse practiotioner and i got in very quick

  7. bg glad it went well and i hope everyone has a very merry christmas
  8. well this is finally working again. the isbn # for the book is 978-0-615-40990-0
  9. i have a hard time with dense protein like chicken and beef. dr hoff isnt worried tho...he said as long as i am able to get soft foods in he is not worried. i can tell you i cant eat bread as it fills me up too much and any carbonation is out. i did buy a book on the sleeve and it was quite informative
  10. bg i eat very little...about 3 to 4 ozs. breakfast is usually a cheese stick or a little yogurt or cottage cheese. lunch is usually soup or tuna and dinner is fish. im still on 1 protein shake per day. i sometimes will have a snack, just depends

  16. i just did the liquids for the 2 weeks then went to the pureed. thats better then what they want u to do....yuck, i think id rather not eat. when i had mine, i guess it was early on so they didnt have u do that stuff...lucky me
