  1. You know Dr. Kim would break your arm for that !! J/K.. same post-op as you. I found RTD Isopure zero (melon flavor) was good way to break up the shakes.
  2. Sounds like anxiety... and yes, that is natural
  3. Great job on the loss so far Hang that belt and use it as a little motivation.
  4. You need to talk to your surgeons office about this, nobody here can answer this for you. Good luck with the liquid phase.
  5. You look great now, I'm sure you will shedding the LB's in no time.
  6. Some of the skinny girl ones are really packed with carbs and calories. Be sure to read the label. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  7. I waited the 3 months my doc tells us to. Since then a "drink" happens when the urge strikes. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  8. I would ask ur surgeon. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  9. " I just posted that I hit onederland. I have been on this site for about a year now. I feel like I didn't lose it fast enough to get a congratulations for hitting onederland. Out of 160 people that looked, two bothered to comment. I worked my butt off. So what, it is coming off a little slower." Why not just be honest or quietly leave? You are upset that you did not get the amount of responses you had hoped for, so instead create an "im leaving" thread. We all dwell on numbers to a point.
  10. Yes. Ecko, EKG and stress test all in the same day. Other than being out of breath, it was easy. They did tell you it was a timed 5k, right? Just kidding... Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  11. I had a brutal stall around the 6 week mark that lasted for weeks. They happen, they suck, they play games with your mind and can even start making you second guess things. You just have to remind yourself that the weight will come off. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  12. Y'all are gonna do fine. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  13. Thanks for the info on the sale. I just hit the clothing jackpot last week. While gathering all of my "too big" clothes for donation, I found a huge bag of work pants and shirts that I bought at a day after christmas sale a few years back. I was on medifast at the time and 1lb lighter than I am today, but bought them a size or 2 smaller in anticipation of continuing the diet. We know how that went
  14. I had an all night whiskey fest last night.. same results as pre-op.
  15. I'm not sure I understand what surgery you're going for?
  16. You will get plenty of various answers to this question. My doc say no carbonation ever, as it will stretch the sleeve.
  17. Who got really bent out of shape?
  18. I agree. There comes a point where you pick a surgeon based on the things you feel are most important and hopefully you follow the program they lay out. FWIW, the chocolate barissentials is my fav shake out there.
  19. We must have the same friends. The ones I told were all super supportive, busted my chops some, educated themselves on the surgery, learned my diet going forward etc. Now on Sunday's we watch the games and all eat low card high Protein food. The only shots they give me is that I can't drink beer. ... I have the biggest package of the group, so I let it slide. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  20. Not fair!!! go get'um funkee Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  21. What size drink is that? The calories, carbs and fat appear to be thru the roof. Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
  22. 417 in June 322 today Fun times Sent from my mobile productivity killer.
