I like Syntrax double stuffed cookie (Oreo flavor) made with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. I usually have one of these for Breakfast most days. For shakes made with fruit, I like the vanilla Body Fortress brand from Walmart with the same almond milk, frozen strawberries and banana. It's very close to my favorite smoothie from Smoothie King. :-)

The hardest thing for me so far has been making time for exercise. I work full time and have 3 small kids, so that is still my biggest challenge. :-)
I have similar stats. What was the hardest thing for you about this process.

I also had 3 c-sections before VSG. No issues whatsoever. :-)

I had 82 pounds to lose. I am absolutely happy with my decision. I have a before and during pic in my gallery. :-)
Yes that's my fear I don't want to wait until it's too late. I love myself don't get me wrong and I have tried every diet in the book and nothing has worked. Me having PCOS does not help either. I have thought about it a lot and I am thinking about getting the surgery done in the summer. I know it's a journey that I am willing to take. Does anybody have pictures who has gotten the surgery that would not mind sharing ?

I'm 5'3" and I've lost 62 pounds in just over 6 months. Only the first 30 pounds were "easy". I'm going to have to work even harder for the last 20. I'm not yet in the "heathy" BMI range and I don't think I'm in any danger of losing too much. I started at 212. I do think I look a little bit older (or maybe just closer to my actual age). I have a before and after pic in my gallery, I think. :-)

The PA at my surgeon's office said calories should be 800 to 1,200. Protein first, then veggies, then a healthy carb if not already full. I try to get anywhere from 60 to 100 grams of protein per day.

You were sleeved on my birthday. :-)
I was sleeved June 19th.

Thanks, everyone. :-)

I like Quest and Oh Yeah the best by far and the macros are good for both. For Quest, my fav is coconut cashew and for Oh Yeah, I like the cookie dough flavor. :-)

I thought that the pain/discomfort with the sleeve was worse, but I think having a new baby was a really great distraction with my three c-sections. :-)
