  • The only protein drink that I have been able to tolerate is the Premier Protein chocolate RTD shakes. I drank them pre-op and have had one every day since my surgery in July 2013. I like them so much that I actually look forward to drinking them. Good luck finding some you like.

  • Hi there! My family goes to Disney World every other year and every year I say I'm going to lose weight so I can ride with my kids instead of sitting on a bench all day. Every year, I fail.
