New here
Hi everyone I'm new to this group. I've decided I need to get the sleeve. I got my referral letter from my Dr. I need to make an appointment. Now I need to decide if I should get health insurance and wait the 12 months or try and self fund the sleeve myself. What did everyone else do ?

I'm not a competitve person
A friend of mine has asked me to join her in a little friendly competition to help motivate each other and see who can loss the most weight each month.

Do you need protein powder?
If you are getting enough protein from food? MFP has my daily goal as 54g. Today I had 76g of protein from food, yesterday I had 74g from food. Someone told me that even though I get enough protein from food, protein powder is better for me and I should still have a protein shake each day especially after a workout.
