Premier Protein Chocolate Shake
"I love Premier Protein Shakes! My favorite is chocolate, however, this past weekend at the Obesity Help conference I had the opportunity to try two new flavors not available at my local Costco yet. I tried banana and caramel. I liked the banana and loved the caramel! The company representative said that they are trying to get these flavors into Costco and Sam's Club because they understand the savings passed down to us is significant. This is one of the most affordable and portable proteins on the market. If your wondering if they mix well with things such as sugar free syrups, PB2, or even miralax they absolutely do in a simple shaker. "

Keith Scharf
"Dr. Scharf is a phenomenal surgeon who takes the time to answer any and all questions you have concerning the bariatric procedure you choose. He is affiliated with Loma Linda University Medical Center which is a top notch research hospital as well. He is a teaching Doctor so he typically has a resident with him and that didn't bother me in the slightest. It's as though you have 2 physicians present and I think it also speaks volumes for his capabilities concerning bariatric surgery. The surgical center is state of the art and has an extremely caring and compassionate nursing staff. I know many people fear going under general anesthesia but Loma Linda has you make a separate appointment at their center for anesthesiologist and they do a thorough medical history and tests. Dr. Scharf isn't like many bariatric surgeons who seem to drop you after surgery. His staff calls and checks on you and makes certain you schedule all of your follow ups and complete your blood work. They then make sure you come in annually to check for all possible deficiencies. They have a monthly support group that covers a variety of topics. Lastly, Dr. Scharf explicitly tells you if you ever begin to gain weight beyond the typical bounce back weight to not be ashamed and come back and see him so that whether it is an anatomical issue, nutritional issue, or emotional issue it can be addressed because he genuinely cares that you are set up for success.
