Victor I am so happy you are back. Everyone was getting worried. That is so good that it was a very smooth surgery. Welcome back, Toya

Hi, Victor! Welcome back! Glad to hear everything went well. If gas is your biggest problem, it's not so bad. Debby

So glad you are back. I'm moving over so you can join us on the losing side. As for protein drinks, I like the Nectars..especially the fuzzy naval. Keep on drinking. Linnie

thanks but i would like to know where i can get this nectar drinks because im in the go by taste mood and im really picky about what i put in my mouth lmao i really would apreciate if you direct me to the right path . thanks Victor Alicea

Victor, I just bought some on Friday. I went to supplement city on the Berlin Tpke and it was $31. I then came home and saw that you can get them cheaper from www.vitalady.com and www.bariatriceating.com- I hope I spelled that right. I bought Apple ecxtasy but I do not know how they taste because I am still pre op. Are you still in a lot of pain?

Dont worry youll be fine the pain lasted only one day and during my stay i have this button that i was allowed to press every 10 minutes you will be sooooooo pain free after that first day but my pain mostly was from gas and not actual incision youll be fine keep me posted ma. Victor Alicea.

Hi Victor, I'm happy to hear all went well! I know what you mean about gas...it's not fun, but it could be so much worse. Isn't it a relief to have it all behind you, and a whole new chapter in your life ahead of you? Welcome home, Looser! -Deb

Welcome Home Victor! Glad to hear you made it through Ok... Let the losing begin! Joanie

Hi Victor, Welcome back!!! So glad everything went well for you. My doc suggested ensure, boost or carnation instant breakfast no sugar added. Don't buy too much though cause one can will last the whole day As far as the gas, I found the best thing that helped me was walking. Please remember we're all here for you, so if you have any questions at all don't hesitate to ask. Best wishes, Mary Lou
