  1. I dont even have a scale at my house !!! but at work there is one and it is so easy just to step on.... i'll just keep working on it and hopefully next week it will show some improvement
  2. Just made a double batch of coffee toffee ice cream. enough for 8 servings. YUMMY!!!
  3. agave nectar has TONS of sugar in it. like honey use it sparingly
  4. not only do I use this every day to make my protein drinks . I also use the blender to make my ice cream with. My one problem was not getting the mixture light and airy enough before it went into the ice cream maker. I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION !!! use the cookie dough paddles and whip it up. it makes it so thick like pancake batter. Best ice cream that I have made as of yet !!!

  6. it gets better. I use 3 equals in my coffee. took me a good 6 months to get used to it. now sugar tastes horrible
  7. OK so tomorrow is my normal weigh-in and from what I can tell I have actually gained weight. (praying it is because its my time of the month within the next few days) I am obsessed with the scale and weigh myself every day ( i know ...; no good ) been eating all the right food... I am just not sure if I am eating too much of the right food. How many calories per day and I am suppsed to have? Please I didnt go thru all of this to not be successful.
  8. Sams club had it....
  9. ok so I went to PF changs this afternoon. Had some chicken broth and about 1/3 portion of shrimp with lobster sauce. it was really high in protein and low in fat and sugar. I also ordered spinach with garlic. but of course my eyes are bigger than my stomach
  10. So I am on a busniess trip right now and stilll in the mushy stage. I am having a real hard time finding stuff to eat. Yesterday and had cheesecake factory skinny turney burger (no bread or veggies) and a side of steamed carrots (no butter). I ate half for lunch and the other half for dinner. Please I need an idea for today. any suggestions would be great. A chain restaurant would probally be better.
  11. probally not. I was thinking- no blind ng/og
  12. my MD said I have to use chewable the est of my life. I questioned him several times about this since I hate the taste so much. Is there anyone else out there that doesnt have to take chewable vitamins
  13. I still use a pill crusher. I can not STAND the taste of chewable Vitamins. I crush it shwallow quickly with a swig of Water. nasty !!!
  14. if for some reason you are in a car accident or in a trauma. you will be intubated (put on a breathing machine) and when they do that they will also put a tube to your stomach to keep it empty (so you dont vomit and it gets into your lungs and get a pnemonia. if they placed an NG/OG tube blind (the normal way) they could cause trauma to the sleeve.
  15. time of the month soon? do you weigh yourself everyday or once a week?
  16. do you wear one now that you have been sleeved ?
  17. so 3 weeks have finally passed and I have been advanced to the mushy stage. that 2oz of turkey chili I ate tonight for dinner was the best thing I have had in ages.
  18. right before my surgery I donated 2 boxes of frosted flakes the food pantry.... and a whole bunch of other food. 13 boxes of cake mix ws a little too much. Clean out all your cubbards, there wil be no temptation.
  19. before VSG I never had a day in my life that I had heartburn. Since surgery I have it daily. I take pepcid complete twice a day and it helps some but not completly. The worst part is waking up in the morning and you can feel the acid coming up your throat. Does anyone else have this issue and if they did what did they do to make it GO AWAY !!
