September 14th Dr. Ponce at INT in Tijuana!! YAY!
I have scheduled my date and cannot wait! I ordered some sample packs of protein powders and chewable supplements.. have gone from LOTS of diet coke all day long to one can/day and one cup of coffee/day.. plan on being caffeine and carbonation free by Sept 1st 
Any other Sept 14th sleevers out there? I have found one other gal also getting sleeved the same day in TJ but at a different hospital... hoping to also find someone else who will be at INT hospital that weekend, would be fun to meet up!

Congrats again!! a little over a month for you!! Sarah I searched for "free samples" in the search box for this site and found a couple lists people had posted in the forums. Most companies seem to not be doing free samples anymore but they often will sell single serving packs really cheap so you can try them.
-I got Unjury starter kit http://www.unjury.com/store/protein/unjury-protein/unjury-st arter-pack.html
-a FREE sample from wellese.com by emailing them and asking nicely :)
-Gotein offers a free sample (you pay $3 shipping) on their site
-About Time sells a sample pack (it's only 2 packs) for $3.99 at shopabouttime.com
- http://www.celebratevitamins.com/ has a sample pack that's $3
-I also ordered the Syntrax Nectar sample pack for $14.95 http://www.bjsbariatrics.com/product/synSamplePack.html
-I ordered this FABULOUS BlenderBottle from amazon. I still can't believe it was only $5.94 and has this awesome blender ball in it that breaks up protein powder REALLY well!!! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0018G3NGS/ref=pe_175190_21431760_M 2T1_ST1_dp_1
I'm told what tastes good might change after surgery so I figured I'd have a variety of stuff on hand to try and that way I can hopefully find some I like. I just didn't want to buy a huge amount of anything if it turns out I won't be able to tolerate it LOL I'm sure there are more companies that offer sample packs if you google too! :)
Hope this helps!
