So, I am SOO excited. My wonderful boyfriend had me order some DaVinci SF syrups for my shakes ( I am just over 2 weeks pre op), and they came today...14 beautiful bottles!!!

I can hardly wait to use each one LOL....I feel silly, but this is going to help me succeed!

@Mommasmelting: I have my consult on Dec 3rd with Dr. Umbach at Blossom also. Do you live in Vegas? I live in Mohave Valley, it's near Laughlin, NV. :}

Mini, yes I live in Las Vegas...you are going to LOVE Dr!! And his staff...Ruth ( the front desk gal ) is so super cute and helpful, and Mindy ( insurance guru...you'll see her right after Dr )...she had the band, then had Dr Umbach due her sleeve revision...so she KNOWS what she is preaching to us. His psych eval is a short 10 page ( I think if that ) questionairre we fill out and return...he then give it to his psych and that IS IT! The nutrition class is about maybe 30-45 minutes long, and super easy. Of course with different insurance, there's different guidelines...but I love this place...and they are part of the Center For Excellence...so that made me feel more at ease.

I just made my first shake using the Caramel Syrup...YUMMOS!!!

8 oz skim milk

1 Tbs decaf instant coffee

1 Tbs SF DaVinci caramel syrup

1 scoop vanilla Protein powder

2 handfuls of ice

blend blend...the more the frothier...

I have been dying for my coffee for 5 days...here I go.
