Bariatric Surgery – When Are You Ready?
In the many years of practicing surgical weight loss, one of the most common feelings after surgery is “I wish I had done this sooner.” I understand the hesitation.

Ultimately, with surgery, you take on certain risks inherent to any kind of intervention in the body’s systems.

Creamy Peppermint Protein Mocha

Sugar Cookie Shake
Tis the season for cookie decorating and exchanges, but Christmas cookies can bust your weight loss goals. This protein shake gives you that familiar sugar cookie taste, without the unwanted calories.
Premier Protein Coffee Creamer Swap
If you’re a coffee drinker, you may know the coffee itself isn’t what packs on the calories, it is the sweetener and creamers that we often add to it. If you aren’t someone who prefers your coffee black, swapping your creamer for a premier protein shake is a great option. Unlike some protein shakes, Premier Protein® tolerates heat and can be mixed into hot beverages like coffee without splitting. Depending on your flavor preference, this protein hack works great with vanilla, caramel, or chocolate. This is also a great option for patients who utilize shakes for their protein intake but don’t care for the level of sweetness. Mixing with bitter coffee helps to cut the sugary sweetness. If you’re grabbing coffee at a coffee shop, just ask for your drink with extra room or if they will serve it in a larger cup.
