Good luck to you. Keep drinking those protein shakes! It's worth it!

Thank you!! Yes they are a hassle to drink I have to do more research into better tasting ones. Haha

Look into Protizyme and Matrix protein shakes. They have great flavors which made my shakes palatable. Good luck to you.

Thank I will look tomorrow good luck to u too

Thank you. I am 6.5 months post-op and have lost 88lbs so far.

Thats absolutely wonderful keep it up stay strong and remember this is a tool, I haven't had surgery yet but that saying is drilled into my head hahaha

I used the time I spent waiting for approval (18months and 2 denials) to work out my issues with food. My wife and I have traveled extensively around the word and eaten at Michelin starred restaurants and ate meals from some of the best chefs in he world. So, I am well aware of the sleeve being a tool and advocate for more than the one required therapy visit to work out your respective food issues.

I love food lol traveling sounds awesome.. ya in all the support groups they say its a tool atleast every five minutes haha
