Hello, I was wondering if there are any sleevers here from "North of the Border" and/or any Pre-Ops going "South of the Border" namely to Juarez to see Dr. Rod in May 2013. I am super excited and can use all the info, tips and advise I can get!!

• My ticker wont update and it's ticking me off LOL
  

I just found someone here (though dont ask me on which forum) that was just RAVING about the "about time" brand of shakes. So I did a bit of searching and found a canadian store online who sells them. I ordered the following flavors: Birthday Cake' date=' chocolate Peanut Butter, Banana and Mocha Mint - one serving of each to see what I like the best. Im thinking that should make high Protein shakes easier to get down! My plan is to go hard core shakes and bars during the pre-op 14 days so I dont feel so mentally deprived on the other side. Do you think it will work?? [/quote']

What store was it?

Hi there, I bought mine from lowcarbcanada.ca but I believe well.ca has them as well. Mine are expected to arrive on Monday and I plan to have one per day - I eill give reviews!!

Please do! Thanks!

okay seriously how do you edit the tickers..

when I go into Tickers..I click edit and it takes me to the "make a new ticker options"?

Hi Dawnie, Im pretty sure you just need to update your weight on your profile page and the ticker will do the work.

Ok guys I promised an update on the taste of these shakes... so this morning the first was Birthday Cake... hum... doesnt taste like any birthday cake Ive ever eaten... if it did well I can honestly say weight would not be an issue!!

Its smells a bit like feet, and (keeping in mind I made it with water) it sort of tastes like water that has had a stalk of black licorice floating in it. (That is probably the stevia).

All in all, not the worst thing I have ever had to drink but certainly not exciting. That being said, at 31 grams of protien and 0 carbs per serving... it is a very viable option for the 14 days following surgery. Surely I can get two of those down a day!

I bought some sugar free Torani syrups. They are great for adding a flavour to yucky protein..or to the good stuff...Try some. I ordered them on line.

Thanks for the tip, I will.

The second ABOUT TIME Shake I had today was Mocha Mink... which was pretty much Mint Licorice.

I think that is going to be the trend due to the Stevia. So, if you dont like black licorice steer clear. Im ok with it.

I would be okay with it. I love black licorice. I didn't know Stevia tasted like that??

4 MORE SLEEPS....

I went and had a wonderful experience!!! Don't worry, just make sure your Dr is Board Certified and you should be fine!!!

I'm from Alberta! On my way to LIMARP in TJ, mex on May 14! Currently FAILING my first week of 'detox' preop....

My order from low carb grocery just arrived! Got 'nectar' brand Protien , piña colada and peach flavors! They're pretty yummy! More like juice when mixed with water and I've heard the lemonade flavor is good too!

danelle, what is the website for the low carb stuff?
