Has anyone used and or had this one approved for pre and or post op?

I am trying to do all RAW, Vegan, Gluten GMO Free shakes or Meal Replacements.

Any suggestions for another brand that fits that category please let me know

You said' date=' Candy, that it was hard to find natural whey isolate. Did you read my private messages? I sent you specific names of natural organic whole whey --- admittedly I did not give info on isolates cause I don't use them.

Sorry none of my suggestions worked out. Protein 17 is an excellent natural whey, and so is rawwheyprotein -- that is what it is called. but they aren't isolates.

There is no one right answer. We all have to figure out what is right for ourselves.[/quote']

When is your surgery, Tizzie?

I don't have a date. My surgeon has said probably in January. I have to jump through a few minor insurance hoops. I had finished all the hoops and she approved me for surgery in jan 2012 but for reasons i don't think fit in this thread so I wont' go into them, I cancelled.

Then life happened and I went back to her in Oct. She said she'd do it in Jan if I redid a couple insurance hoops. Minor insurance hoops. Most of my prep tests were still valid but I had to see the psychologist again and I have to see my primary care doc once a month three months in a row. I saw her in Oct, will see her in Nov and in Dec and on Dec 11th, all my insurance hoops covered, she'll schedule the surgery. Altho it is possible her Jan slots will be filled.

Fortunately all my other prep was still good. Of course I had seen my doc three months in a row before but it has to be within the past 12 months and it was something like within 14 months so I have to do it again. Not tht big a deal but frustrating. I'm ready.

You sound ready, and you seem to have all the information you need to succeed as a vegan bypass patient. I'm sure you'll succeed!
