I get all my protein from food. If I had to drink or eat anything with whey protein, I would starve. Can't even stand the smell of it. It makes me vomit. My husband drinks protein shakes after working out/lifting and I will not even let him come near me while he's drinking it!

Less than 10 days post op (7-30-12) and I'm down to 293.5 from 326!!!!!!
Sorry just really excited... You may return to you're normally scheduled activities now )

That's great news!!! I have to agree with you...I was doubting my doctor because my weight wasn't coming down. He kept telling me it was due to the complications after surgery but I didn't believe him....thought I was the only person that surgery didn't work for. Now, all of a sudden I am dropping weight like crazy!! Guess they know more than me!

I had the same issue. I had complications and gained 13 pounds in the hospital because of the massive amounts of fluids they had to give me. I lost that and then started to retain fluid so I wasn't losing weight at all. They assured me that it was due to the complications and eventually I would start to lose. The doctor was right! Finally this week I started losing a lot. Still worried that it will stop but keeping my fingers crossed that all the complications are behind me! Best of luck!!!

Your sugars were high prob dut to the lactose ringers you had in your IV. They have dextrose in them( sugar). i am type one and take only 20 units of lantus daily now i was at 100units a day and now with no meal coverage. It does get better and as you lose more weight the less insulin you will need.

Hang in there!!! This is me getting ready for the world this morning, wearing the EMS world expo shirt that I have never wore in public because it didn't fit

Go to 'The World of Eggface' website. She has tons of meatless recipes. Search for 'meatless monday'. Hope that helps!
