    Hi there! Welcome to the Jewels of June. I am being sleeved on June 6th! I started my shakes 1 1/2 weeks ago. I only use water to mix in mine. I add Crystal Light, Torani SF syrup and I found some

  • I am hoping to be sleeved on June 27th. I'm not too sure about the Jewel of June tag though. sounds kinda girly to me...Can I call it something different, please.

Hi! I'm scheduled for June 6th!!! I'm using Biochem sports whey Protein powder in vanilla flavor. It also comes in chocolate and no flavor, I believe. I am not picky about taste and this fine to me. It mixes with Water. It's fat free, 99% lactose free and wheat & gluten free. It has 20g of protein per serving which is 2 scoops. I like that I can thin it out as much or as little as I want. It recomends 3/4C of water but most of the time I use 1 1/2 to 2 cups - or about 12 to 16 oz. I'm still learning quite a bit about products though so I'll stay tuned and see what others are recomending. Best of luck with your pre-diet and your surgery. I'll post here after my sugery next Monday!!!

My date is June 27. I'm starting to get my stuff all lined up for my pre-op diet which starts on the 13th. Any suggestions for good protein powders I could try?

Fingers crossed for you Beth!!!!

Hoping to be a Jewel of June, I'm all approved and ready..... just waiting for my surgeon appointment on June 1 to determine the date. eek! so exicted

My surgery is scheduled for June 7th. That's one week from today. This time next week I will be out of surgery and probably will have walked by now. I'm getting a bit anxious. I begin my pre-op diet on Sat (3 days on full liquids) but am trying to eat better this week. It seems like each morning I wonder if this is really necessary and then by the end of the day I realize that it's the best thing for me. From what I've read I'm not the only one who feels like this. Best of luck to all the June Sleevers!

June 7th for me too!!! I feel exactly the same way......

June 22nd for me! i just ordered some powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup Protein powder today. I bought some GNC brand protein powders and they don't taste too bad. You can add some flavoring to the vanilla. I start pre op diet June 9 and want to get ready. That is next Thursday already. Wow. Hope all goes well with your surgery. Getting excited and nervous at the same time. Weird huh?huh.gif

Hi! June 20th for me. I have lost 13 pounds so far on pre-op diet. I found a really great protien powder at Walmart that taste pretty good and it has for 1 scoop

26g. protien or 2 scoops 52g. I mix a yogurt fat free of course with 1 scoop and it is delish! Like you I am excited and a little nervous. I just can't wait to start

this new chapter of my life. I am 60 so it will be exciting to not be fat for once in my adult life. Right now I'm drinking a EAS chocolate Myoplex for Breakfast

and it has 42g so it is starting out to be a good day. Take care now and good luck with your pre-op diet. Wendy (mac)

My surgery is June 10, just started my pre-op diet today. I was not sure if I should start the shakes today. All I was told was to eat a low/no carb diet that includes, meat, green veggies, eggs and cheese only. Does that sound about right to any of you or should I also start the protein shakes?

My surgery is June 18 with Dr. Aceves....Although I wasnt given a strict pre-op diet, I have been doing the Atkins diet and drinking 1 Isopure drink from GNC no carbs 40 grams of Protein and taste pretty good.

Good luck to all the June sleevers, keep everyone updated!

240- pre-op

So excited! Since I have been so anemic I was afraid that even though I was rescheduled for Jun 21st it would not happen. I just got new blood work back and we are good to go! Three weeks from today baby!

Hi all.....still waiting for my insurance approval but surgeons office stated I should be okay for surgery on June 27th!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for a quick approval process. Wish you all the best of luck and can't wait to be one of the jewels of June!!

I am hoping to be sleeved on June 27th.

June 23rd for me. I started my shakes today and have been a total emotional, mushy mess!!!! Ha! I started using my husband's Muscle Milk and YACKKKK!!! The after taste...eeeew! Lol I had 2 this morning and couldn't bear to swallow another drop. So I decided to head to Vitamin World...like 4 hours later. I never knew that being so hungry would bring me to emotional low...oh my goodness! My poor husband said, "And this was only the first day!!!" It's funny now but earlier I was in tears. So anyways, I found something different that the employee said they sale a lot of. I can't think of the name at this very moment but it's in a clear, red jug. It actually taste really good for a Protein drink. So I think I will survive! Lol Wasn't sure this afternoon!

Can't wait for my surgery day! I hope all goes really good for all of you! :)
