February Sleevers

I'm set up for February 4th. Seems like forever away. People keep telling me, "oh don't worry". It bugs me cause I'm not worried. What seems to keep popping in my head is, am I doing the right thing.

I would like to here what others are thinking, going through.

My Doctors plan is two days preop clear liquid, not 10 like I've been reading on here. Anyone else similar?

Thanks,

Kimo

I just tried the unjury chicken soup flavor today and it was disgusting. Don't waste your money. I got that as a sample from my pre-op class. It made my stomach feel really nauseous too.

I just got a big container of that chicken soup in the mail today. I should have tried the samples first :mellow: Oh well...

The Best Whey Protein

I came across this at my local Healthfood store. I actually like it alot! No after taste!! I've tried so many that I hated, Unjury, EAS, Akins etc. to name a few. This is called Jay Robb Whey protein. I've had the Vanilla, Strawberry & Pina Colada. It has 110 calories, 25 Protein grams and 1 carb. I just wanted to share this for anyone who was having trouble finding a tolerable Protein Shake.

Thanks for the recommendation. I too have tried so many protein powders including the ones mentioned above. I love the Bariessentials Vanilla sold by my Dr. and love it but it is $90 for 35 servings. Will definitely give this a try and save about .70 a serving. I know me if I cant stomach the flavor I just won't stick to it. So it is worth a little extra money.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

That is awesome! Congrats and best of luck to you

So excited & ready or a new beginning. FEB 13th is right around the corner. Yaayyyyyy....

Yayyyy! Feb 13th for me too!!! It's my Valentine gift to myself!!

Here's my solution....Isolate unflavored, Better Than Bullion...heat the broth and add powder. Let sit for about 10 mins for flavors to meld...reheat if necessary

Ive been drinking Premier Protein (chocolate) for two weeks and I could get it down....but I dont really like it....but I just tried the Vanilla OH MAN! Its soooooo much better! No after teste at all!
