  1. I sip on nectar protein drinks all day and eat 2 times lunch & dinner when I get up I have a protein drink with skim milk or soy milk with some protein like cookies & cream from Matrix or Nectar chocolate truffles or vanilla bean or Unijury protein I guess the key is sip the protein all day cause it has protein which for me doesn't give me head hunger I could just drink and not eat who would have thought a yogurt or sting cheese would be a meal
  2. Ok saw your post and don't want you to fell alone dr had me see my Lymphedema therapist I saw her today and she could believe how much weight I had lost now if we can get the bottom half to match better with top half I would be happy but don't think they will ever be close I've already lot 6 inches in my waist and only about 3 in my hips my boobs are getting ripples in them my stomach looks like sand paper and my legs are really sagging and rippley she told me for know to go get underarmor long sleeve compression shirts and spandex compression long pants to help reduce the fluid in my bat wings and legs its ok cause I'm freezing all the time so I went to sports authority and got the tops we thought I would have to get a men's 2-3x so it wouldn't bind my arms and made shape the body in well I ended up with XL and that's questionable to how long I will be able to use them so I got 2 thank god for sergers and the I know how to alter them at $35 each so I can use them a little longer haven't decided yet on pants I'm hoping I can go to this company that makes surgical garment that's close to me and beg them to sell me some of the fabric cause bottoms I'm not a standard fit so I can make them they did a couple of years ago cause I ordered some went to get them sat there for a couple of hours and they weren't ready so I told the lady to sell fabric so I could make them so they wouldn't stop at my ankles they cover my feet . So say a little Prayer for me mon cause if not there $110 a pair So Happy Eastef everyone and no peeps I love the little Elephants there so cute and I will still wear my Dumbo jacket when I'm skinny

  4. Has anyone tried the Supreme Protein bars I saw them in Sports Authority there made with Whey protein isolate 15 grams protein 200 calories this is 2 oz bar it shows 5 Graham's sugar but then it shows 14 Graham's sugar alcohol. This is Cael nut Chocolate & a Cookies & Cream the sugars sound to much
  5. My dr was the best he came in everyday and saw you 2 times a day and I was in there a total in 3 different time 17 days 6 days home 2 nights back 6 days home a week then back 4 days even sat & sun he came twice each day and it was always him

  11. If it helps do half water and halt soy milk makes it not as heavy
  12. I think it's cause you have to keep up with so much your food protein vitamins exercise and Drs visits your blood work this is a lot to deal with so I think it will just take a little while to get adjusted to all the changes after all its not just surgery it is a lifestyle change and changes take time Remember all good things are worth WAITING for and that's a better HEALTHIER LIFE
  13. Also Fusion sends sample out to Unijury if you call will send them to your Dr or nut
  14. We're all in here for ONE reason to support each other no ones perfect and we all make mistakes just some don't admit it so be nice don't gossip at least some of us are human and do things we aren't spost to and aren't afraid to say it and if you take a bit of that cake or eat a chip or a piece of chocolate that's going to happen as long as it just one bite or one time
  15. You might want to get some sf flavoring good to mix up to add flavor
  16. Same here I will use them for life

  19. 70-80 grams a day is what I was told I have a protein drink for breakfast you can mix it with skim milk or soy or make it into a smoothie using Greek yogurt protein mix and fresh fruit according to what stage your at or PB2 and some sugar free flavoring that's all good for about 25-35 gms mu nut says that's a good start for a long time even for life if you weren't a breakfast eater you just need to look for higher protein fish tuna low fat cheeses beans etc who would have thought a string cheese would be lunch
  20. Classic orange makes it taste like orange juice. Also roadside lemonade with lemonade vitamin water makes it more tangy
