I use plain.

I mix a scoop into my 4oz of Greek yogurt. It helps. I actually prefer most of my nectar proteins this way. Tons of protein in it too!

Thanks for the response. I agree weighing every morning should be a no no but I'm having a hard time letting go. I reread my original post and I guess I should more worried than I am. There's no way I ate more than my 800cal that day so I had to be retaining water. My legs were so sore the next two days it would make sense. Thanks again

Lol. That's what I was thinking too!

I did "train" kinda. I did the 3.1 on the treadmill a few times and I take 4 weight training / toning classes a week. I just never thought I'd gain afterwards!

Oh. And I stayed on plan! No cheating for me! And no alcohol either.

I walk/ran my first 5k on thanksgiving. It was so hard it was 19degrees outside and 1.5 miles was all up hill! Here's my issue, the next day I weighed and I was up 4lbs! Almost a week later still up the same 4lbs with no sign of movement. Is this normal after a 5k? Surgery date: aug 5. Down 57lbs. From 267 to 210 (now 214 :-/. )

I'm doing my first 5k ever thanksgiving morning so I can have a few bites of that pumpkin pie! After my turkey of course!

These sound so yummy! I did this one: 4oz cottage cheese with pumpkin pie spice, vanilla and Splenda. Mix and eat. It's good.

Am a huge pumpkin lover and now that I'm 11 weeks out and down nearly 40lbs I want to make a smart choice when it comes to indulging in something pumpkin. What ideas do you have?

I started taking these to help with constipation at the advice of my surgeon. My question is, can I mix them both into one glass or do they need to be separated? If they should be separated, why?

I have two and LOVE them!! No work no fuss! Just shake it out and pull it on and go! I love it and I've gotten soooooo many compliments on my new cut!!! If you can do it, do it! I am saving so my money not having to buy hair style products and saving sooo much time not having to deal with my hairdo!

I was required to take two chewable multivitamins and chewable calcium a day. The first week they made me nauseous and felt like sandpaper going down. By the middle of the second week I was throwing them up within minutes of chewing them. I even tried crushing them and that didn't work either. So I switched to multivites gummies and haven't thrown up since.

My ex boss told me her secret diet tip. Drink lemon juice mixed with hot sauce and water. As much as you can drink every day for a month. She swore by it cause it "worked" she lost weight. I always wanted to say WELL DUH! Dumbest idea ever.

I take the chewable iron without any problems, it's the oddest thing.

I have my first follow up Appt on Thursday even though today is my two week mark. I'm going to talk to them about it then, I know how important taking Vitamins is on your body I'm a big advocate for them but I simply cannot take these chewables anymore. I even tried crushing them and mixing them in my drinks. No luck. Are the one a days good?

The chewables are making me sick. Anyone take gummies?

Also. After talking to the diet lady at the office, she said not to drink almond milk cause its mostly fat and only 1g of protein. Skim milk has 8g protein so it's better. I was bummed cause I like almond milk but I'd rather have the protein.

Ok, sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you, it's hard to type long messages on my phone so I've been waiting until I was up to getting on the computer. I don't think there's anything wrong with writing letters to your family, but I wouldn't write them like you are going to die. Maybe just a promise that from now on things are going to be different and better. Tell them why you are doing this, I assume it's ultimately for them right? To be able to spend more time with them and have a more active life with them. As far as the shakes go, I have entirely moved over to using

I know!! I was so disappointed!! I really saw Sandra bullock and queen Latifa as steph and lula! But lulas diets crack me up! I'm behind on the last two books.

Any Janet evonavich - Stephanie Plum fans? I love her books! Remember when Lula went on her all meat diet and was carting around all that bacon??? LOL

OMG! You guys are so funny! Thanks for the offer to help hide the body but if I did that then I'd have no one to take the trash out. lol.

Defiantly Chapstick or whatever you have for your lips. I also brought my own robe for walking and my phone. The hospital provided everything else. I had my husband bring a dress the next day to go home in and a pillow for the car ride home.

LOL

I know! But man does it smell good! Lol I'm being good and drinking my shake. :-)
