  1. just discover something to make with the protein shakes mix and the wonderslim protein chocolate cake mix (low carb 6 grams and 15 grams of protein in one package don't eat it very much but when i need it it comes in handy) so take your fava protein mix and 5 or 6 table spoon of fat free cool whip and mix it. it should become creamy. cook the cake in the microwave. let it cool of course and then slice it in half "vertical" (no pun intended) put the mix in between then put in the freezer. enjoy!:crying: (i'm thinking of buying the carbzero mix to use as the bread for when i make stuff .it has no carbs in it)
  2. don't know if this is good advice or not but i didn't do protein shakes untill i was 5 weeks out your body does not deplet that fast that much i can promise you.
  3. that can be depressing but on the upside you have lost. at the end of the day you have to think that the science behind weghtloss will not fail less calories less fat ect... but maybe it is time to watch you carb intake mms are no good even if it four. i would die without my protein shakes i have become so creative with them. (hugs)
  4. my question is who would actully pay??? like a zoo or something...........so sad. of all the things to dream of being.
  5. glad you are feeling better and i love doctors who want to go that extra mile myself.
  6. im like tiff i'm in my 7 months and i'm good if i can get a half a sandwhich down. bread is not my friend either is rice or anything too dough just seems to get stuck and hurts and i still vomit if i eat a little too much. It not" POOR YOU" you have every right to be upset and to vent anyway you want. i hope you can get this solve. in the mean time here a some ((hugs)) and i can only understand not wanting to have a another surgery again i shudder at the thought myself.
  7. Good luck with your 6 months and trainer. personally i was 24 when i had my surgery I didn't even tell my family i was having the surgery. i just went and had it done. ive come to learn sometimes it best just to do what you need for you and move on. After your 6 months out everyone will be sanging a different tune and they will be focus on something else. I hate the biggest loser it gives such a shrewed look on obesity and gives too many misunderstanding about obesity. Also there are stories of people once they live the ranch some gain there weight back ect. i always tell people don't even compare real life to that show. Also with this weightloss sugery it not all to end all you still have to work hard at the end of the day everyday. it just a tool not magic i wish other people would understand that but that another note and subject. :thumbup1:
  8. chancie!!! i'm so happy for you!!
  9. i too wonder all that and the frist two months were hard but as of today there not one ounce of regert and i will do it over in a heart beat if i had too i'm down 117 pounds. what to regret?? Plus i was never an emotional eater but if it was there i eat it you cook i eat it. now it feels good to say no thanks and mean it because i'm not hungery.
  10. i'm also glad you went to the doctor and also glad he didn't find nothing but hope they do find something to give you an answer??? (ok that don't make any sense but here a bunch of kisses and hugs!)
  11. i don't snack at all but that just me. i'm 58 pounds away from goal and when i get closer i will add more snacking maybe but while i'm still losing i just wont. just my 2 cents
  12. i havent find any powder i like except the click one all my proteins are RTD ( i think it mostly because i'm lazy) and i thought the same thing about the navel as well.
  13. it took me about a whole 2 months before i started feeling like myself it was 6 weeks before i was pain free and even after two months i would have a bad week now i just have bad days ever now and then and i'm 6 months out.
