Hello all, I am having serious issues, my surgery date was June 26th 2013, and I'm only down 45lbs!!!????????????????. I have a personal trainer and have been working out for over a month and still no change! I'm still not able to eat much so I know that I am not over eating. I guess I could be doing better with my liquid Protein, but could that really be the source of my problem?! Anyone that could help I would appreciate it.

Thx HealthyNewMe! I do logged my calories in my fitness pal and I barely eat half of what I am allotted for each day, not to mention what I get back from me working out ????

Congrat!! Way to go!!!

So I am 11 weeks out on Wednesday September 18, 2013, and I recently attended a wedding, I took pics after getting dressed and finally saw a little progress so I hve decided to share! Here goes!!!

Yes!! I totally agree!! I enjoy feeling lighter. This just motivates me to not worry about the scale and to be an even better person!

Awe!! Thx so much! My boyfriend would cringe if he heard that! Lol! I love the red lipstick on me I'm not a make person @ all but I am noticing the more I am losing the more confident I am becoming!

Thx!! Good luck! It's one the best choices I have ever made!

Thx!! I think I'm a slow loser because its not as fast as others. It's gotten so bad I rarely weigh myself now... I just let the inches fall off. 11 weeks and I've only lost abt maybe 35 lbs. but I started @ 264, and I'm 5'8. I feel great though!! I feel lighter already! Lol

Hi!! Un flavored protein by Unjury is really 98% un flavored and after u get used to it it's 100% taste free. U can't buy this protein in the stores u have to buy it online @unjury.com

I am 10 weeks out and I have been faithfully taking my B-12, and it's not working!! What B-12 are you guys taking that really works?!

Congrats! I can't wait to report 1 anything! Lol

Walk it out!! Just walk around ur house or apt, and that should calm things dwn

Maybe I shld try that but just use it in moderation like every other day. Thx for the information

Do you notice a difference energy wise?

I have not taken the liquid form? Does that work better? I'm getting abt 55-65 grams of protein a day. I'm required to get in 65g a day! My iron is on the low side but I'm not sluggish just desire that boost of energy that's I've been looking since after having the surgery.

I know it's not working because its supposed to hep with energy and its not. Maybe my brand is not a good brand or maybe I shld be taking the shots. Please anyone that can help with this I will be grateful

Haven't started exercising yet, yes I do eat what the nutritionist recommend. Protein is always first! :-)

The 2 at the top r old n the 2 @ the bottom r after the weightloss, haven't taken any in abt 3 weeks.

Yes! Do u have a support system also? Yes the inches come off as if ur melting!! I started @ an 18 and now I'm like in a 14

Yes ma'am!! I am so excited about it too! Ready to be comfortable in my own skin!! Yes my family was sooo supportive!! My mom was my biggest supporter! I wld not hve even did it with out her support! And I'm so glad I did!

Yes! U can mix the protein with ur purée foods you just want to make sure that when u mix them the food temp is not more than 160 degrees or it won't mix well. I have not been to a group yet, but I know that there is on in Durham, u can check the website for duke.com I think and they will let u know the day and time, but I think it's only one day a month. Good luck with the purée foods!! Enjoy!

Hi I'm 9 weeks out n I hve had barbeque, n really enjoyed it n there have been no issues.

Thanks! I hve lost about 30 lbs so far! The protein that worlds best for me is Unjury, it was recommended by my nutritionist, it's a little on the expensive side but it works the best for me. I only know for it to be sold on the Unjury.com website and they ship pretty fast also. They hve large containers or packets that I can buy to try. The unflavored protein I normally drink with OJ, and like a V-8 juice. And u can almost not taste anything! I love it. That's the only thing I've used for protein. They also hve a strawberry sorbet that is pretty good also. I also have some chocolate Splenda that I haven't tried that u mix with milk, but I do the unflavored every day sometimes twice a day. Oh btw sugar free Popsicles are the best when just gettin started. Makes u feel a little normal. Congrats!! Ask me anything at anytime!! :-)

June 26th!
