Hello all!

trying to wake up this Saturday morning -I would still be asleep but one of my dogs was whining to go out & woke me up!  GRRRRRRR.

Just wanted to say hello-I am having RNY on 9/12 -start my 2 week liquid diet on Monday so watch out!     No really I don't dread it ...I just consider it the start of my journey to a better  healthier me.  

My BMI is 58 so I have a long way to go but I *WILL* get there.  To me it's not If it's just when.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.  I'm going to start my Saturday morning cleaning!

Good Morning Kelly!

I've been up a couple hours also because of the fur-children.  We have three, including an 11 wk  old puppy. 

Have you choosen protein shakes yet?  I bought a couple yesterday to try.

Hi Michele-

I've been using the Pure Protein 100% Whey from Walmart so far.  I like the chocolate "blendered up" with ice & skim milk. We add just a bit of SF Jello pudding mix and it is really good-pretty much like a milkshake or Frosty.   I'm going today actually to stock up on SF jello & stuff for the next 2 weeks that I will need.  My 13 yo daughter is even making them for a snack these days!

How do you like the Ready to Drink  EAS?  I was thinking I would need something easy to take to work next week for "lunch". 

Happy Saturday - The weather is beautiful here...We are getting the benefit of Hurricane Irene here in the piedmont of NC.  It's sunny, warm & breezy. 

Hello!

Good luck on your surgery!

I really like the EAS 100% whey protein with skim mil**** and coffee, and sometimes hot chocolate mix.  I will have to try the pudding.

I should be having my RNY surgery in the next 2 months. I was recently approved, and just completed the psych eval. 

I will watch for your progress!

I'll have to try the EAS....I like mixing with coffee too!  Congrats on your approval...I had to wait about 10 weeks for my surgery after approval -seemed like forever but the time has flown by.

Let me know when you get scheduled & good luck to you as well.
