  2. I use isoflex brand Protein mix. We have a store called absolute nutrition. (Alabama). I mix a scoop with my coffee every morning. About 18 oz. They have several different flavors all 110 calories a scoop. I'm hooked on this daily! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using VST
  3. I am almost 3 months out and I get bad cravings for sweet. I eat a few peices of sugar free chocolate. It helps. I try to stay busy and not focus on my cravings but it is a hard time of the month. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using VST

  7. I'm 2 months out an consuming about 600-800 calories a day, and exercising. Roughly how many calories are people eating? Would love to hear from people who are at goal and maintaing weight as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using VST
  8. Walking around the house helped me. It will pass. To me gas pain was the worst. Especially when it got up into my shoulder. I did have my mom give me a shoulder massage and that helped too.
  9. July 19th. Down 45 lbs since that day!
  10. I'm not 20, and not a full time student at a large university, but I am 32, wife mother to a 14 and 12 yo, work 40+ hours a week, and about to start taking a college class again all day on Saturdays. So I do have a busy schedule. I'm 7 weeks post-op and just now started to get energy back. If you have come this far you are a strong person. You can do this! You might need some new people to hang out with. I know I was very much a social eater, so I have to do other activities, if I did hang out with friends and we went to bars/redtaurants might want to suggest other activities. Don't get didcouraged....you are stong! You have come this far....the rest ( I'm assuming) is downhill!
  11. Surgery was 7/19/12 down 45 lbs since surgery and feeling great!
  12. Ment to send my above post aimed at you, since you are right down the road from me, neighbor.
  13. I was sleeved 7/19/12 by Dr Jay Suggs in Decatur. I'm down 45 lbs since surgery and feel great! Still have a way to go, but no regrets!
  14. Hey Quita-- I had surgery on 7/19 and my mom was very against it. She also works in the medical field and has herd bad stories about people having complications from surgery and I not going to lie, I was scared too. But after weighing the pros and cons I knew I had to have surgery. Good luck, just pray and be at peace with YOUR decision

    Both my husband snd myself had surgery 6 weeks ago and we eat plain cheerios or honey bunches of oats with low fat milk or almond milk. I can tolerate it but like my protein shake better. My husband has it every day!
  16. U still losing weight or Maintaning?
  17. I like Isoflex whey protein shake in peanut butter and chocolate flavor. It comes in a powder and I mix it with either almond milk or lowfat acidofilus milk. Got it at complete nutrition, but I'm sure you can get it online. They also have a mint chocolate chip flavor that sounds good. They also have a iced tea you mix with water that I heard is good. Has 27 grams og protein per serving
  18. Does anyone know if there is a maxium limit to how much protein to have a day. I know I need a min of 60 g of protein. But can go over that with 2 protein shakes and milk.
