Omg Omg Omg Omg Omg Omg - I Got A Date!

I am still breathless with excitement...and fear. Oct 22 I am getting sleeved! It kinda sucks that it is the day after my birthday, so clearly no food or alcohol based celebrations... but clearly, food and alcohol based celebrations are WHY I am 100lbs overweight, right?

I keep - literally - pinching myself to see if this long wait is almost over. I started the program at Kaiser Permanente in November of 2011. And now I have a date. Wow. I am almost giddy.

We share a birthday!!! I will be sleeved by then, so ni food or alcohol based celebrations for me either. Congrats on getting a date. It's exciting to know that the day after your birthday you are starting a new life. You will in a sense be reborn!

Do you have a World Market near you? They sell them there too. They are pretty good.

If you put a Protein Shake in a blender with lots of ice, can it turn into a coolata or frosty like drink? Anyone try this?

That is my favorite way to drink them.

Congratulations!! I just heard from my surgeon's office that I have a tentative date of November 7th -- I can't wait!!

I am having it at Holy Cross Hosp in Maryland. I have been trying various Protein Shakes and drinks on and off for the last six months, and honestly? I don't care for any of them! That two weeks is gonna be HARD!

Well hold tight because you will be drinking Protein shakes for quite a while after your surgery. Make sure you find some you like.........................

The sugar free Torani flavored syrups are life savers for me! I make a Peanut Butter banana Protein Shake with the PB2 & banana Syrup which I LOVE, yesterday I made a choc English toffee shake which was good & today a raspberry/strawberry shake with a small splash of pineapple & cherry syrups. It's fun experimenting with flavors! And I don't taste the "whey" in them :-)
