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

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.
