Well technically you asked 3 questions.
Just joking...
-
If you can eat the recommended amount of Protein no, you don't have to drink the shakes.
For what it's worth...I'm 3.5 months out and still have a shake every morning for breakfast; I can't get all of my Protein from food. I too grew tired of the Premier Protein Shakes and have switched to Syntrax Cookies and Cream.

Congratulations!

No less than 2 times a day. Am I obsessed over it? Absolutely... It may be an excuse but I do this because I feel like it helps me keep myself in check. If I am not weighing daily then I must not care that I gain weight back.
The scale does not control me though. I just like to know where I am on the daily.
Thank you for writing out my thoughts.

Yes.
After surgery I was taking a PPI once a day and everything was fine. About a month ago I started having some issues with acid at night and my dose was increased to twice daily. That has helped tremendously and I haven't had any issues.
If you're having problems with this call and/or email your doctor to see if this is a viable option.

I've gone down one shoe size.
Oh...and I'm clothes shopping as well. I like to look/feel cute EVERYDAY and that's kinda of hard wearing ill fitting clothes.

If you're only 1.5 weeks out of surgery I'm guessing you're still on liquids.
You'll feel the restriction when you move to solid foods. Also please remember that you stomach is still swollen and trying to heal from the trauma of surgery.

I know this thread is old but what the heck...
Height - 5'2
Highest weight - 293
Surgery weight - 285
Current weight - 229
That's a total of 64 pounds in 3 months ( 8 pounds lost pre-op)! I'll take it!!

You have to do what is right for you.
Everyone is not going to support you or agree with your decisions, not just with WLS but with life in general.
You be your biggest cheerleader and supporter. Oh...and the fine people here offer support daily.

Chipotle: A side of chicken with a scoop of guacamole.
Woodranch: Blackened salmon with a side of broccoli...off the kids menu.
Any other place I might dine out at: Chicken/fish and veggies.
I'm keeping it simple for now because that's what works for me.

What exactly is the Mechanical soft phase? I've never heard that term before.

<p>that sounds awesome. You say you made "lettuce" wrapped? What type of lettuce did you use? Tell me everything you put on it...please, you have my mouth drooling..lol</p>
I used the hydroponic butter lettuce from Walmart because it makes beautiful little "cups." I added the steak some grilled onions a little cheese and taco sauce. But if I had some pico de gallo or good fresh salsa, I would have used that with a little cilantro, a squeeze of lime and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt. I think I'll be having this again today.
That sounds DELISH!!!

I have no regrets.
No need to suffer in pain. Please ask your doctor for medication for the nausea so you can take your pain meds.
