Thanks J, I am steady lossing but all of a sudden I am craving sweets like crazy and I dont know why. I am trying to stick with deserts that i find on the egg face site but i need to stop with the cravings. Hows your journey going?

I was sleeved 3/5/12 Jlewis 229 and I had almost the samething. I had to eat my last meal at noon the day before an then do the two bottles of magnesium and then nothing but clear fluids until midnight. I did have to follow the south beach diet for about 2 months prior in order to reduce the fat on my liver.

I dont know if its the smell or the taste but i am three months post op and have not been able to find a shake i can tolerate. It took my hair to fall out bad ( what can i say im hard headed) for me to say i better find one i can get down. I am happy to say i found a recipe on the eggface website for peanut butter cup shake and it was soooooo good. It didnt taste or smell like a crappy shake at all. It was like a milkshake treat on a hot day. Next on the list to try is strawberry cheesecake shake.

Hi, can you tell me where you purchased it? I'd like to try it.

Rainbo, I got them from Rite Aid they only had them in a six pack for $12. I am spending so much money trying ti fine one i can stick with b/c if i dont like them i wont drink them an I know thats not good.

Hi Rainbo, I just tried those isopure an to me they are gross also. To thick,gritty with an after taste. Not as bad as the powders but gross to me non the less. I am going to try and Water it down and see if that helps.

I always keep a bag of almonds in my car and purse as well as Ill toss cheese cubes, an apple or an orange n my bag when i know i will be away from home. Keeping the nuts on hand really helps

Hi Robbino, I to was the same way. My doctor did give me a diet but i lost more then what i needed to and I just ate and ate. I think it because we know we are about to have a dramatic weight loss. I am glad for the preop diet because there is alot to adjust to after however once you've been sleeved no matter if you're ready or not your body wont allow you to eat like that. I was sleeved 3/5/12 and my biggest issue is i never want to eat. I wouldnt beat up on myself for it if i were you. You'll be just fine. We all have to adjust mentally ready or not

Thank you Tmoss, I will look for that liquid protine this weekend :0)

Updating also, I was sleeved on March 5,2012 and I am down to 213, A loss of 41 pounds and loving it. Only problem i am having is hairloss due to not drinking the protine shakes at all. I hate them they taste so gross. I havent been this size since i was a teen. Congrats to everyone on their continued losses :0)
