Topic: RE: Dr. Hien Nguyen at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center?
I did not have that surgeon, my hubby and I used Dr. Steele from that practice. I have nothing bad to say about Dr. Steele or the hospital. We both had great care and would recommend Johns Hopkins to anyone looking at this surgery
Topic: Don't you just love it ....
when your size 12 jeans are too big and you have to buy size 10? Bought a pair of size 12 jeans yesterday at Ross, tried them on when I got home and took them back today to exchange them for a size 10.

Topic: Lurkers - Come Out, Com Out
I met two great ladies at the Pouch Party last evening.
We started talking about Obesity Help and they both admitted that they were lukers. Heck, I don't have too much room to talk - I've been a member since 2007 and maybe have 10 posts total.
Jump in, even if it is to say hi.

Topic: RE: protien shakes ????
THe only RTD protein shake I like is Isopure Smoothie which has some sugar because it is made with fruit, so if your early out you may want to stay away.
As for powder I only like GNC amplified Wheybolic (any flavor but fruit punch) and Click.

Topic: RE: protien shakes ????
I have tasted quite of few RTD protein shakes and the only one I really liked was like almost $3 a can 50 mg protein called 50 grand slam at GNC. I just didn't want to spend that amount of money all the time.
I have stayed with powder protein that I buy at walmart called Body Fortress. I only like the vanilla. It is $15.00 for an almost 2 pound jug and with I mix th powder I use a fork for 30 seconds. Then I leave in the fridge for a while and when you take it drink it tastes like a vanilla shake. I also add banana, strawberries or fruits, vanilla extract or coffee. One thing I noticed was that I like it before surgery and I could still drink it after surgery. I am currently 4 years post op.
Good luck in your surge and journey.
