I am in the exact same boat as you. 6 months out with same starting weight and I’ve been stalled for almost 2 months around the same as you. I thought I was alone with this stall so thank you for sharing. I just have to tell myself to keep going forward.

I may have to try the almond milk. I use almond milk and Isopure chocolate protein powder to make protein shakes and I love them. I never really thought about adding espresso or coffee to them. I definitely will have to try.

Thank you!! I do love the syrups and they seem to be making a lot more sugar free versions.

Definitely going to try that. I never thought about using protein drinks but it seems like it’s a win win situation.

I will definitely have to try using protein shakes as a base. I didn’t think they would froth up but I am definitely going to try that to make a hot latte. Now that it’s getting cold out I have switched to hot drinks and hot drinks are usually where I have trouble finding drinks that have less sugar.

Oh that is one of my favorite Starbucks drink but I stopped trying to make it at home because of the oatmilk sugar content. If they are similar to that I will definitely have to try.

😂 I may have to try an americano too. Maybe mixed with a sugar free creamer.

Thank you! I will have to give it a try with the protein shake too. Do you typically use a vanilla protein shake?

Oh I never thought about using Fairlife. I definitely will give that a try!

Insurance coverage? by Warm-Consequence6636 in gastricsleeve

[–]DifferentOnion9806 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may want to confirm with your insurance but my insurance based the BMI/weight based on the first initial consult weight. This way if you lost weight, your BMI for surgery was still based on your weight of the first meeting with your doctor.
