    ABDOMINOPLASTY ADVICE PLEASE?

    I have the toto and it is not as great as they say. The slick surface isn't, or my poop is super sticky. We have had it a little over a month and it has already clogged. I too live in so Cal so paying for water is a BIG issue. The only reason we bought a new toilet is because we wanted a taller...

    Genepro (Musclegen) being sued by Syntrax (SI03 Inc.) for false advertising

    I HATE the taste of whey protein, it tastes like fake sugar to me with an aftertaste. This stuff is a very small amount that is tasteless and melts instantly. What whey protein uses such a small amount to provide even 10 grams of protein?

    Genepro (Musclegen) being sued by Syntrax (SI03 Inc.) for false advertising

    If I can use Genepro to get an additional 10 grams (instead of 30) of protein by putting it in my coffee in the morning it is still better then no protein added to my coffee.

    Surgery tomorrow

    I'm 11 months out. I was just remembering how scared I was, and afterwards thinking that I made the biggest mistake of my life. Now I think about how great I feel and how much energy I have. My mind seems clearer, my feet don't hurt, I feel strong and I feel I can do anything I want to do...

    Vitamin B6 - Too much?

    I just started using pure egg white protein that I got at Trader Joe’s I have always hated the taste of whey protein so this stuff has been wonderful for me. Anyway I can’t see anywhere where it mentions B6. I would take a pic but I left my phone at work:(

    Just asking

    I was always a good loser, losing quite a bit of weight at a time. I was also quite a good gainer, obviously. So I was wondering if it is the same after surgery if a person was a good, or bad, loser would they be the same after DS?

    Just asking

    DianaCox Just out of curiosity, before DS and during all the diets you probably did were you a good loser? Did you always lose a lot of weight easily or was it always a slow process?

    Binder/Compression Garment Questions

    I woke up wearing a binder in the hospital. I wore it while there and one day while home. I got a nasty rash from the damn thing. Took it off and threw it away, hated it.

    Gagging on Shakes

    I use Genepro because it has no flavor and I can put it in hot and cold things. I put it in my tea in the morning and I make chocolate milk to put it in for the afternoon. I could do shakes at first but then they became so nauseating to me that even the smell turns me off.

    Switched off of Omeprezole at 4 month post op visit and have raging reflux now

    I was given a PPI after my surgery but never took them. I felt I had no need for them. No one has ever asked if I was still taking them, I had no idea they are a standard part of the DS recovery. OOPS
