Im going to try you make it on feb. I haven't been sleeved yet. I also live in Pleasant Hill. I'm in the 3 month diet stage for insurance.

I might try to make it too. I just barely started the process (ie went to the conference and am awaiting my first appt) But I know have a support "team" in place is always good

Hey, Lacey!! That is the same group that did my sleeve on 1/23/13. Dr.Hamilton was my specific surgeon. It is a great practice and very helpful every step of the way. I live in Independence so not far:) Welcome!

My sleeve was 1/23. It's a journey!

Man, I hope all of you can come to meet each other on the 23rd. This is sounding like a great group!

I am planning on being there, sounds like fun:) I am excited to meet other people that have been though the same thing.

[laceymm888 9]

I won't be there . That's too far of a drive from Parkville. Have fun!

I only have a costco membership right now. No Sam's Club. I tried some other Protein Drink that was recommended (body by Vi ?) but I did not like it so I sold my bag to someone that uses it. I still am struggling to find a Protein drink that I like and that my sleeve likes! I plan on being at the meeting. Can't wait to see everyone again!

The body by vi ones gave me a headache (I have issues with sucralose/aspartame - going to be the hardest part of all this for me ). I have found a couple of Protein Shakes that don't have it in them. One I found at Walgreens (can't remember the name right now) and the it works ones. Hoping one of those tastes good after I'm done

The only protein drink I have been able to tolerate is thd Premier Protein from costco and pure Protein drinks. I have a few different protein powders that I can't tolerate.
