Topic: Rite Aid carrys GNC product ?!?!
Just an FYI.... Today I had some time to burn before i went to work so i stopped into rite aid. I dont normally go in here, but i normaly dont have time to burn. So as i am browsing the aisles i notice a whole one side of the aisle deticated to gnc product. There were many protein powders to choose from. Im glad i ran across this cause i always wait till the last munite so i know there will be a time when i need protein powder in a pinch, and rite aid is like 10 minutes less of a drive for me each way...
just thought i would share... maybe ive been living under a rock... lol

Congrats to you on your upcoming surgery. I will have to try the Isopure Grape Frost. So far I've tried a few of the Nectar powder protein drinks. So far I like the twisted cherry and the lemon iced tea. The fuzzy navel is quite disgusting and the Caribbean cooler is much too sweet for me. I tried the Chike protein powders, I liked the chocolate(which is surprising because I don't care much for chocolate drinks), the banana and the strawberry. I thought I was going to gag when I tried the vanilla and the orange. Someone said it tastes like an orange creamsicle, uh, no it didn't- trust me, it was awful. I'm just trying to find something that I can tolerate. Well my best wishes will be with you next Tuesday(wow it's really getting close!) as we begin our new journey. "Meet ya on the loser's bench!!"

Topic: RE: I have a quick question
Hi There, we share the same surgery date, my name is Jill, and I'm having my lap band surgery in St. Louis, MO. We have 9 days to go, I'm still excited too, just needing alittle reassurance every once in awhile however. MY pre-op diet-my doctor said it should be a 1400 calorie diet, we could do slim fast if we wanted, high protein, low carb things. I have stuck with the slim fast during the day and some raw veggies here and there, protein drinks (which I like Isopure @ GNC) I like the grape frost, it has tons of protein in it, and it tastes just like a grape frost Gatorade. So far I haven't been too hungry this way. I wish you the best in your surgery, hopefully we will get together in again after surgery. God Bless! Jill
