  1. Im so sorry, be strong, u can do it, leave the room or go for a walk when ever he brings that crap in! He wants u to fail! He wants to control u, gain control over the situation
  2. I've never tried the soda, I would suggest nothing or a tiny sip of warm tea or broth.

  4. Can you buy things for your daughter you dont like? I love cheese but buy Swiss for my husband's lunch bc I hate Swiss, so I won't cheat. For the kids I buy yo kids yogurt, goldfish, Graham crackers, vanilla pudding, all things I dont like, but kids love! I eat egg whites with a little sprinkle of cheese for breakfast, veggie burger for mid morning snack, chicken taco or bbq baked Beans for lunch, yogurt for snack, turkey burger, meatloaf, meat ball, Pasta fagioli for dinner.
  5. Try ballerina tea at night. All natural. You will go by morning
  6. I'm an attorney. Took 2 weeks. But I have 2 very young children. I'm glad I took 2 weeks. Could have done 1 week maybe. I would take at least 1 week off
  7. I've been slacking, at a plateau...I want to get back too the rules, but can't really remember them....what rules did ur Dr give u, no straws and 30/30 is all I remember...please share ur rules
  8. I did, under right breast it was gallbladder....is it worse after food? Dr told me band would be center
  9. I made one! I made coffee the night before in my kuerig, froze a few ice cubes, in the am put together in blender w/ FF FV coffee matte & 1 scoop Protein powder, was great, but will make a little more ice next time.
  10. i loose in big chunks, so i stay the same or little lost for 2 to 4 Weeks, then in just days i can drop several pounds....bodies are weird, just still to it and it will show soon. probably all the fluids still. also are any of you fluids sodium? like broth, maybe even extra Fluid retention.....not to be weird but are you constipated? that can account for a little bit too.
  11. How do you make yours? I want to combine my coffee and morning shake into one? Should I just add a scoop of Protein to my coffee with a little ice in the blender? I know some people use instant coffee? I have a kuerig.

  13. grocery bill is about the same, i.feel price went up with quality, plus i can't eat reheated meats, it bothers me, so i have more waste.....our eating out bills have went down considerably
  14. just be careful you want to make sure you liver is ready for surgery. i'm sure u will be fine if u are prefect from here on out
  15. I've heard of this, 2 to 3 Weeks out, or around 30/40 pounds. its just ur body adjusting, same as any plateau, just stick with ur plan and u will see results. also see ur nut, i was at a plateau when my dr suggested it, i reluctantly went to the nut, i lost 5 pounds the next week!
