      I'm in Charlotte, surgery was in Rock Hill SC on 11/27/12. I've lost 76 lbs & go for my bloodwork tomorrow. Kind of anxious to see if I have any vitamin deficiencies. Best advice I can give is to

    I drink Chike Very Vanilla every day & love it. Did not like Unjury but a lot of people do. My doc said he tried the Isopure that his nutr tries to push on people & said it was nasty & that he didn't have the heart to encourage people to drink it. Lol Nashua Nutrition is an online store that sells samples of a lot of proteins including Syntrax. I think they are $1.95 each.

    I'm in Greensboro and had surgery on 4/15 with dr Fuzz in Winston Salem. It was almost 6 months to the day from my very first visit. BCBS approved with no headaches.

    I'm doing great! I live in Greensboro and my surgery was 5/20/13, SW 318 & CW 238. I'm mentally preparing myself for a stall (which I have not had yet) or my weight loss to slow down. I hope everyone else is doing well.

    So far the "Oh Yeah" Protein drinks are good. I couldn't do the Isopure. I even bought one to try and mix with something I liked and still thru it away. Nasty!!

    I used to hate vanilla then figured out with a couple squirts of mio it's like a smoothie. Now I just do vanilla and flavor it like that

    In Greensboro.4/15/13 DOS 430; Current 360. I am tracking about 1000 calories a day but have struggled to lose over the past 2 months. Going back to simpler options to see if that kick starts.

    Where did you have your surgery and who was your surgeon if you don't mind me asking?
