I take Protein 7 that's exclusive to nutrishop. Look up nutrishop in your area. The flavors are great. 34 grams of protein in each drink fat burner and Aminos for muscle repair. With milk your protein will go up. High Vitamins... It's great look it up. It's 65 bucks but its a 5 pound powder last me two months..

My vitamins I found through my mother which was very surprising my doctors didn't even know about it's called fusion Bariatric vitamins they are also great flavors and chewable. 20 bucks has all the vitamins you will need. Look it up they are great depending on the surgery the bottle will tell you what to take as quantity I take 3 a day...

I also use glucosamine pills for my

Joints..

Any idea if they have samples considering there are so many flavors?

This has nothing to do with what you are asking, but if you have a complete nutrition by where you live you can try the Protein powders before you buy them. It saved me tons of money.

Thanks foe the info....However I am unable to locate the nutritional information on the fusion Vitamins. Do u happen to have that with details? I am curious and would like to email them to my NUT to see what she thinks. Thanks :-)

Had my sleeve done on 6/24. Got back today from a 10 day road trip -can be challenging to eat well when traveling, but since surgery I am now down 54 lbs and 72 since the pre-surgery diet. Still have a ways to go but I see the progress. I have avoided all sweets except for the 50 cal Skinny Cow fudgicle when home, have eaten part of a Bratwurst with a spoonful of macaroni salad and while tailgating the last 2 weeks I had very small bites of my favorite sausage (Bahama Mama from Schmidt's in Columbus Ohio). And this past week, had 2-3 small strips of pizza -not full slices! Normally I would have ate a whole large pie! And would eat 2 of those sausages before each game. So I know many will want to jump on me for some of the food choices.....but I don't care. I did the surgery to help give me a tool to help me with my portion controls. I do not eat a lot of the bad stuff I used to, but on occasion I may indulge in a favorite but now with this great new tool, I enjoy some but eat much much less than I ever did.

With the weight I am down, I can climb the bleachers easier -I sit in Row 37 of Ohio Stadium - as I fly from Texas back to Ohio State for every home game ( missed only 2 home games since 93). And I get in much better workouts at the gym, today on treadmill did 3 1/3 miles in 46 minutes with over 1500 linear feet. So I feel so much stronger and better

I still have work but encouraged with the first 11 weeks!

We were sleeved the same day ! great progress keep up the amazing work !!!

I was sleeved June 18 and I'm down 38 pounds, guess I'm a slower loser but that's ok. Starting to get lots of comments from people which feels amazing!

Got to onederland, into NON plus size jeans, and buying larges in tops, so life is good. I had a lot of digestive issues at the beginning and still dealing with some of them, but it's improving. I see my doc on Friday for my three month, hope he is happy and encouraging about my wt loss. I've always had a hard time losing, never been one to lose then regain... Just never could loose... So guess I'm not surprised that I'm a bit slower. But I feel good and can really see a difference so it's all good.
