Jay Robb has a very high quality unflavored Protein powder. You can put it in drinks, sauces or whatever.

Ask 25 people what is the best Vitamin and you will probably get 25 answers. One thing you should know, is that not all vits are created equal and vits made specifically for bariatric patients could be in your best interest. Bariatric Advantage and Celebrate Vitamins give free samples and most of theirs come in chewables.

At first, I got everything I could in liquid form. Be aware though, some meds don't come in liquid form and some can't be crushed. What I did, was take a list of all my meds to the pharmacy. I asked them to tell me what came in liquid, what could be crushed and which ones I just had to deal with. They were very helpful and worked hand in hand with my PCP.

Best of luck.

Golfbuddy;

You will get really quick results if you stick to VSG diet guidelines. I learned quickly on from Tiffykins to keep my carbs to around 30gr a day, no more since any more seem to really slow down my weight loss. Stick to the diet. 64oz of Water, 70 + grams of Protein, >30gm carbs. Keep away from the sugar drinks. In 4 months, you will see results as much as other people.

I hear a lot of people like unjury protein. To me, I could always taste the protein and had a very hard time. So, I drank my protein with Isopure 40gm clear protien drinks which I got from GNC. I liked the apple melon best, though none were delicous. I still take Barriatric Adv Vitamins and although expensive, I know I am getting high quality nutrients and the suppliments needed.

Congrats on being sleeved...now make it work for you!
