Vitamins and protein :(
I bought the unjury one. I literally bought very brand that people recommended. I tried the unflavored one, the chocolate one etc. I just do not like it at alllllllllll. I am so upset. I saw some bars that have over 30g of protein but are like 300 cal and I can't them at this point Uhg. Today is a day that I regret my sleeve .... Why does god have to make me so picky. I should be able to tolerate this stuff at least one of then.

Vitamins and protein :(
Today is such a disappointment I am so sad that I can't stop my tears. Today I tried 4 different Proteins and I had to throw everything I made because I was disgusted ... I was always a very picky eater. I loved sweets that was my problem.... I am soooooo sad I was only able to get like 15g of Protein maybe it's even less.. I don't know what to do or what to get. I spend over 200$ on protein products and I did not like any of them at all!!! I can't believe I did this to myself I am probably never going to be the same!! Today was my first day taking Vitamins... I took one Multivitamin that I bought from my surgeons office and I almost threw up.. I will never take it again. I took the b12 under my tongue and it was ok not the best but not something I can't tolerate. I didn't even try the Calcium because it looked exactly like the multivitamin. Today was just sooooo horrible. I was disappointed and I literally forced myself but just couldn't. Then I cleaned my room thoroughly and did 2 loads of laundry. I had too because I am a freak clean. The problem? Well when I took a shower my scar by my chest was feeling like it's burning and I looked at it and it's kinda open it's not like the other ones. I took the shower anyways and went to the gym after. The gym was closing at 5 and I get there at 4:30 and I was so upset. Went to cvs to try and buy some other vitamins because I don't want to give up. I found some chewable calcium vitamins that are caramel and chocolate and I bought both since it was buy one get one free. I tried the caramel and I loved it. It tasted like candy and I chewed it really really well and it didn't upset my stomach. I hope I will like the chocolate. I also bought fruit burst multivitamin which I will take with my dinner. I hope I will like it. I know these are probably not approved by the surgeon but I do want to take something and I have to take these. I really don't know what to do about protein. The only think that had high protein which I liked was the Greek yogurt. Farina only had 2g. Uhg this is so frustrating and upsetting. I tried a Jello sugar free double chocolate pudding which I've been craving since day of surgery and now that I am allowed to have it, my tummy didn't like it so much .. Maybe I ate it to fast and I will give it another try. I also am having mashed potatoes for dinner and I hope I will like them. The supermarket have them now in 4oz cups and microwaveable. I might add some sour cream. I am working so hard to lose weight and eat right. But I think I am going to have a hard time because I am a really really picky eater that it's unbelievable. Today was just a really bad day. I know everyone says it will get better but when?

My first breakfast
I need to find new vitamins. I am not taking the ones I have.... I hate to throw up or gag... Why can't we all be 100lbs and never have to worry about this stuff ... Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit. I need something that tastes like candy and not medicine. I am so upset that I spend 70$ on something that will go in garbage!!! The b12 is not so bad since it goes under my tongue but the other 2 is a big NO NO

Starting 2nd phase on food! Suggestions?
Yay I finished 2 full weeks on my liquid diet. I am now allowed to eat more... Went food shopping today and it felt great to buy something like sugar free pudding and mashed potatoes and farina. I start tomorrow. How the hell am I supposed to eat 70grams of protein when I can only eat 3 meals a day??? How do you guys do it? Ohh and let's not forget the vitamins and 64 ounces of water!!!!

Omg, I am having dreams about cheating on my diet :(
So it's days 12 after surgery and lately I've been dreaming about food. Last night, I had a dream that my SIL came over and he bought a at least 10 different kind of chocolate cakes and I kept eating and eating and eating. Then I tell her omg I can't believe all the hard work I put into losing weight I just gained it back in seconds. I told her I wish she never came because I was doing so good. Before surgery, every time me and her hung out we made delicious food, got Snacks and watched movies. This freaked me out when I woke up because I thought I effed my baby pouch.. All good though, I didn't cheat haha That was a nightmare for sure!!!!!!!!! YESSSS, I miss my chocolate cake so very much.

Day 10 after surgery and went to te gym!
It went great. I had no idea that the first time they make you sit in a conference with other sleevers and they go over the meal plans... That took about an hour!!! As of today, I weigh 195 so a total loss of 18lbs. The doc said I look great and was ok with me going the gym. They even suggested to use the bike now. Today I went to the gym and I burned 250calories and walked 2.75miles... I feel great Ohh so since surgery, my neck has been killing me so the doc prescribed neck medication and I can't wait to take it so this pain can go away. It started with my neck, it went to the shoulder and then my head. Today I ha a huge migraine at work and I know it's all from the neck. I went for a massage, put on a heating pad including an icepack. So I hope these medications works. So I had 18oz of water while at the gym for an hour not bad ehh?

Day 10 after surgery and went to te gym!
Thank god I've been doing soo soo good! I even went back to work on Monday and during lunch I go the mall and walk for an hour. I've been drinking lots of water and I don't have to sip.. I can actually drink a lot. Today I decided to go the gym and I only went on the treadmill for 50min and lost 200 cal. Tomorrow I see my but for the first time after surgery. I hope he lets me starts my second phase since I've been doing so well. If not, I can still wait till Monday ... I am so motivated to lose weight and of course heal... I even motivated my co-worker who is struggling to lose weight to go the gym makes me feel good.
