A simple, high protein, delicious snack, this peppermint protein yogurt bowl is made with sugar free pudding mix and greek yogurt! My favorite combo! Spend a week with me, and you’ll likely see me go through 2-3 extra large containers of nonfat plain greek yogurt. It’s a staple in my life to make sure I ...

Queen JBGood Morning! Well this guy is whole lot smarter than me! I only managed to sleep from 9:30pm - 1:30am. I stayed in bed and watched TikTok videos until 3am but now I am up, drinking coffee and counting the hours until 9am when I can break my fast. I…

Queen JBGood Morning! Hope everyone had a stellar start to the week! It's pretty boring around here. My big event of the day is meeting up with another cookier at a Starbucks nearby to sell her my old 3D printer. Other than that, just more of the same old stuff. Everyone…

On December 20, 2023, I will be 19 years out from surgery. I'm still here. It's been a tough, sometimes wild journey. I've gone up and down a little, weight wise, for the past 15 years , but overall I've done okay. I'll be forever thankful for this surgery. I…

Went through long process of getting weight loss surgery. Only to be told I don't qualify. Dr. Truss had explained the procedure and told me it was a good option for me with my GERD and class 2 obesity. He asked what insurance I had and told me that Medicare…

I am now 18 years out from my RNY and am at my surgery goal weight. Not quite at my goal weight--which is more about clothes size than weight, because I have clothes I want to fit more comfortably. But I am comfortably hanging around this weight. I did regain…

Dr A and his staff treated me like family. Their compassion, attentiveness and kindness made me feel so comfortable and well taken care of. They took the time to answer all my questions and ensured I felt safe every step of the way. Dr A was visible and personally checked…
From the moment I found Dr. Alvarez, (aka Dr. A.) on YouTube I felt confident that he was the surgeon for me and the VSG surgery was the right procedure. I have battled obesity since having my first child. Each pregnancy added more weight and like most people struggling with…
I love the different varieties of premiere protein shakes. As well as the nutritional value. They actually taste really delicious especially the chocolate.
