  12. Have been getting them after I eat like half hour later..goes on for like ten min or more..happens when I eat meat..cottage cheese..no issue...have had them when I felt like I ate a little too much and when eating less..so frustrating.
  13. I tried a single packet from vitamin shoppe.it had a different taste to me than most others I have tried but I could drink it easy. I tried the chocolate but haven't tried the vanilla one yet.
  14. Monday will mark 4 weeks for me as well..I am down 25 lbs and at 246.8.
  15. I bought one and the lid to the container didn't even work right out of the box I thought the design was odd. I took it back and got the professional vitamix..way more money but It's been worth every penny so far...the design is great and there is no removing of any blades to clean it..very easy and works wonderfully.

  21. Wow this thing is amazing. I will be on mushies next week. I also got an ice cube tray to freeze things. I wondered if there may be any suggestions on what to make and freeze that could tansport to work..I will be going back during this phase. Thanks.
  22. I started on full liquids today from clears. I had a little hot cereal..pudding ..and instant potatoes. I have been doing pretty good...I try to have a protein shake about 2-3x per day between my mini meals..have been doing 2 multi vit..3 calcium..1 b complex each.day...been drinking decaf hot tea..finding my sleeve likes it and another way to get fluids in. I have been tracking everything I put in my mouth. Still working on more fluid and protein. My first follow up w my surgeon is the 28th. My three incisions r healing pretty good but one is pretty bruised. My least favorite part of the.day is the shots..last one on tues. Been taking my temp twice.a day when I do the shots. Git out of the house first time today..was nice.but tired.out.quick.
