Is the maxpro protein shake good? I have heard a few others mention it and was curious of the taste. So far I like the UnJury chocolate flavor, chicken soup and unflavored. I am interested in others just for a change. Oh and by the way I am now down 23.7 pounds!!! I am so stoked.

Some have stated that when they have come to a stall they changed their exercise routine up. If they walked for thirty minutes they walked fourty-five and then they would increase the pace a little more. I hope this helps.

GOOD FOR YOU!!! WHOOHOOO!!! You have earned the right to strut your stuff at the pool. Some people think that this is easy and that we don't have to put in any work to lose the weight still. This is so not true. It is still a battle, and the work is so hard. I am at 23.7 pounds down since the 2nd of May and let me tell you, I can't wait to be able to say I am eighty five pounds down. I will strut my stuff just like you. GO GIRL!!

AWESOME!!!

@Neeve, I am so happy to hear that you are doing better. I don't know about you but I was having some trouble tolerating my supplements as well. Then I had a bad bout of constipation. It didn't happen until they told me to do the two Calcium and Multivitamins a day. I am also anemic so there is the Iron. All in all it all led to the dreaded constipation. I too am doing better because I went and bought me some Senokot and boy am I now relieved!!! LOL I hope you get much much much better soon and keep up the wonderful work.

@SimplyQuel, I was told that some stalls are to be expected. I was so busy this week I was only able to use my stationary bike for three days this week and I walked yesterday. I took my usual route to walk and beat the time by 5 minutes so that tells me I need to walk a little further and hopefully I can get a little faster. My only problem is I have asthma and sometimes too much can aggravate it and there I am on the nebulizer again. I must admit though since the surgery I have been okay and with the weight I have lost I haven't had many issues with my asthma. I haven't weighed in a week so I am going to get a scale and see where I am now. Isn't funny when you know you are heavy you refuse to buy a scale but when you are losing you are gung ho to get one?

I have been blending all my foods in the blender to puree it. To give myself a little extra Protein I use the unjury chicken Soup flavor mix and pour it over the chicken as a gravy and it works great for me.

The doctor is right. Congrats to you and good luck with your weight loss process,

I went to see my surgeon on Thursday, and this was my first weigh in since my surgery on the 2nd of may. I am happy to report that I lost 11.6 pounds!!! I am so stoked. Just to witness the number go down was an awesome feeling.

If you are still taking some pain medications this could explain the nausea. You pain could be gas. I was told by my doctor that this could happen. So with that being said I suppose this is normal.

Congrats on the weight loss. I had my surgery on the 2nd of May and I am trying hard to work in the protein and the water. I have to remind myself to eat (Drink) my meals as well. I am getting better though. I hope I am as successful as you when I weigh in on Thursday. Congrats to you again.

I don't have staples, I am ten days post op I have the skin derma bond. However I remember when I had my staples removed after my C-Section it didn't hurt it just felt like I was being pinched. You will be fine. I had a lot of fears in the beginning regarding calories but I don't any longer. My stomach does not hold as much as it used to for me to worry about that. I add an entire packet of UnJury to one can of soup and I eat it throughout the day along with the other like yogurt, and such and I try to keep up with the protein count. As for the protein shakes, I was told to just make sure I take in anywhere between 65g - 100g of protein a day. This will help prevent a lot of hair loss. I hope this helps.

Hi Kenya Angel, I was told that not everyone will get the saggy skin and such especially you exercise along with eating right and drink plenty of fluids. I had my surgery on the 2nd and I have been walking and riding a stationary bike here at home and when I walk I have been carrying something with a little weight to it and I have noticed some change in the strength and firmness in the muscle in my arms. Not sure if this is much help to you but these are just a couple of things I have been doing at home.
