Haha how about white ones?

I just added you also

Ok, now tell us your user I'd so we can add you on my fitness pal. LoL

Ok I had to share this Protein shake I created. It is marvelous! Ingredients: 1cup skim milk (or whatever milk you use) Gold Standard 100%whey vanilla ice cream flavor (omg is wonderful) 1 scoop 1TBLS sugar free French vanilla Torani Syrup (I bought mine at amazon.com) 1-2TBLS sugar free black cherry Torani syrup Ice Put all in the blender in the order written and blend away. IT WAS SCRUMPTOUS!! You will love your protein shakes after trying this.

I have lots of different music and I've kinda broke my play list up into days of the week so I'm not always listening to the same thing every day. P!nk and Adel are top on my list right now my two power songs are Black Eyed Peas, I Gotta Feeling and Kelly Clarkson what doesn't kill you (stronger).

I agree that everyone heals at a different rate and everyones pain tolerance is different. Today is day 6th post-op for me and I am feeling really good....I started my mushy food on Saturday, per my doctors rules, So far I have eaten the best EVER mashed tators. I mixed in Mrs Dash Garlic & Herb seasoning and to thin them out I added chicken broth to them. OMG you thought I had eaten a meal cooked by a proff chef WoNdErFuL I tell you. I've also added sugar free pudding, refried beans, creamy soups, & fruit to my protien shakes. I have started to see the light at the end of the tunnel... I am struggling with getting in enough water every day I am short by about 16-32oz it depends on the day. So I have started to add my hot tea as part of my water intake. I started walking yesterday I walked about half mile and was pretty tired after. Today I walked 25mins on the treadmill and managed to walk 1mile. woo hoo. I also feel pretty good. I hope all of you struggling will find the strength that you need to get you through. Enjoy the day and smile.

Wanted to let you all know I've just added you all to my fitness pal...

Thank you for sharing that

I was also banded on the 13th so far I can get about 4oz of the protein shakes in if I go slow and take hour I can get the whole 8oz in. Not doing much other the water which I've been doing fairly well at getting my daily amount of that. Today I still have pain in my left shoulder. Have cut myself back to only take pain meds at night. Over all doing ok.

What do you use plain protein?

Yes, for me the most pain had been in my left shoulder I have been sitting with my heat pad on it and had to sleep with it on also. I also found that I slept better when I propped myself up in bed. Can I just add that I have ordered a sample packet of shakes from jayrobb.com and although they are a little expensive they rock!! anyone reading this should at least try the sample pack.

Ok I've sent friend request to who I think you are lol we shall see
