Look what I found....in case I do decide to have a drink with my best friend at her big bday party next month now I know there really are 0 calorie 0 sugar mixers. [ATTACH]1254[/ATTACH]

Torani not titanic....sorry....crazy auto correct!

I'm the exact opposite....now I never have gas...assumed it had to do with the healthier eating.

They carry them at GNC but they are expensive...$4.59-5.00/bottle...I can get them at my surgeons office for $4.00/bottle. I found these at GNC also and they're a little cheaper....same nutrition info and I actually think they taste better. [ATTACH]1214[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]1214[/ATTACH]

Super busy day at work and I've decided to stay late and finish some things up....and the only thing I'm stressing out about is wondering if I'll have time to fit in a workout when I get home. Never in my life would I have thought Id worry about such a thing!!!!

Congrats!!!

Its so odd how different docs have different requirements. I do 5-6 meals/snacks a day. 64 oz fluid and at least 60 grams of protein are required. I'm usually somewhere in the 60s for my protein but I've been losing steady....85 lbs and I'm 12 weeks post op today. Wonder what benefit I'd get from taking in more protein?

Cheesy chicken bake....I don't know off the top of my head the exacts of how to make but its chicken breast strips in cream of mushroom soup topped with cheddar cheese...baked...delicious!!! Makes the chicken not so hard to eat because it makes it very tender and juicy.

Tank....great idea!! You need a taste tester??? I feel like I eat the same old stuff all the time!

Thanks! I really cannot remember the last time I felt this good....full of energy and no aches and pains...I feel great. :-)

Thanks ya'll

So is that all you do for a smoothie??? I haven't made any. Just yogurt fruit Protein Powder and ice???

11.5 weeks post op....down 85 lbs. [ATTACH]1120[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]1121[/ATTACH]

Lol....yes I know I'm dramatic! I really have not done or tried one single thing that is not on the program so I was like..."why'd you do that? Do not go back to that place!"

They do kinda melt....I can't eat many of them at a time but they are good

We will help you....that will show him to mess with a woman on a mission!!

You look great!

So I sm such a rules follower....and I just indulged in ONE of my sons "nerds" and I feel guilty about it!

Congrats!!!! Can't wait to join you there!!!

I can get plenty of protein in at meals but the only really high protein snack I've come up with is Greek yogurt with s scoop if protein powder in it...then I divide it in two and have two snacks each with 18 grams of protein. BUT I'm at my breaking point with yogurt now...the sight if it makes my stomach turn. Any suggestions for other high protein snacks??

Thanks for the sweet comments. Yes this has definitely been a change for our whole family!

Check with your Dr....I had this happen and it ended up being a kidney stone....came on all of a sudden one morning and I was in the worst pain of my life for 3-4 days (after spending hrs at Dr office and getting ct scan)....worse than childbirth....worse than RNY.
