"3.0 out of 5 stars Gross, but has a lot of proteinI drink these for lunch because I need Protein and like to torture myself. They taste like a wild boar's butthole farting green apple, but I just close my eyes and pretend that I am Dumbledore drinking the Drink of Despair and I'm able to choke it down."

I do the costco dried seaweed (I think that's what you mean by wafers? ). I eat a pack or two a day. LOVE THEM!!!

Are these salads in addition to full Protein per day or in place of?

Here is a great article on the nuts and bolts of Protein.

I got one a few weeks ago. I find the counts are fairly off but I like to see the fuel in terms of knowing I need to go do more activity. I wish it would work on things like the stationary bike. I put it in on my shoe string but it still didn't work. I'd say anything that gets you motivated to move your butt is a good thing.

I use Garden of Life Raw Meal. (Vanilla). I then it's amazing.

Why should I feel obligated to tell you?
Why should you feel entitled to ask?
It is my choice, not yours, what I elect to explain about my private life.
I don't have "secrets." I have privacy. And that is my right.
I did have someone ask me yesterday why I was not eating the pre-Thanksgiving Breakfast that was served at work. I said it was not on my nutritional plan. They then asked what I was doing to lose weight. I told them that I eat Protein first and exercise. That is truthful. Should I then launch into a detailed disclosure of everything that I did/do and why? Hell no.

I'm 3 mos out and have similar problems. I think mine is in my head though. I'll eat a piece of prime rib no problem, then get nausea eating a plain piece of chicken.< /p>

Men's clothing. Assorted. Jeans, shorts, Polo golf shirts,etc. 44-46 waist 2xl and 3xl on shirts. A lot of it is in excellent if not near new. Some worn but in good condition. More than happy to give away.

This was a response to me asking the same exact question:
In principle, our sleeved stomachs have a certain volume, (mine was about 2.5 oz at surgery) so measuring volume with cups and spoons is what our stomach wants - sorta. But, since most of our foods have a density similar to Water (a Fluid ounce of Water weighs an ounce, or to be pedantically accurate, has a mass of one ounce,) weighing will do as well as measuring, so do whatever is most convenient. Some foods are very low density, or don't pack well into measuring cups (how much chopped spinach is a half cup - how finely chopped, how firmly packed....) so weighing is the only sensible way for those items.
Complicating things is how our new stomach handles different types of foods. Firm Proteins like lean meats will sit in our stomachs for a long time as they get processed for passing on to the intestines while most liquids flow on through with little restriction, and most other foods are somewhere in between. We can usually consume a lot more yogurt at a sitting than meat, so we can safely allow ourselves somewhat more of those foods, or may need to artificially limit the amount that we serve ourselves. My nominal capacity for most meats has long been about 3 oz by weight, and I could easily double that amount of yogurt, but typically only served up 4 oz as that is all that I needed.
Mostly we tend to go by experience with how much of what we can, or should, have at a time and use whatever measuring scheme is most convenient for us. For me, I weight virtually everything as it is most convenient for me and avoids fiddling around with numerous measuring cups and spoons, and cleaning them all the time - tossing different amounts of things into a bowl on the scale is much easier for me. YMMV

Thanks for the input. I look forward to other constructive feedback as well.

Awesome man! Way to go. You're a total inspiration. On another note I was recently corrected on the fat/muscle weight debate. A pound is a pound. 16 ounces of feathers, Water, fat, muscle, etc is 1 pound. Muscle IS more dense than fat. Either way, you're a rock star man. It's great to hear loose skin success stories. It's my biggest fear.
