Topic: RE: Need to clean up my diet - seeking book recommendations

I follow the Pound of Cure diet.  You can find it on Amazon for about $12.  It is simple, easy to follow, and has produced great results for me (and is written by my surgeon, so obviously the plan he perscribes).

It essentially focuses around eating "real food".  Veggies, animal and non-animal protein and fruit.  Avoiding refined carbs, processed foods and dairy.

If you are intersted in earning more his name is Dr. Matthew Weiner - he has a ton of videos posted on his website and Youtube channel.  Both surgery reated, but also nutrition related.  They are excellent videos an pretty much give you the same info that's in his book.

Topic: RE: Vitamins

Since childhood, taking a multivitamin has always made me feel sick at my stomach for hours (whether in chewable or tablet form).

I saw my G.P. last week and he recommended that I take the multivitamin right before going to bed.  

I haven't had this problem since.

Topic: RE: considerations for revision....

I know this is an older post, but I saw that you did go through with the revision. How are things going? Are you happy with the results? How was the recovery period. I hear its much tougher the second time around.

Muscle Milk is the only protein shake I can stomach! No as for the strawberries and cream.... That's the worst one you could try! LOL! The best by far is the Vanilla Creme then the Banana Creme and the Cookies and Creme. Try those... If you like Banana you will love that one for sure.
