Hey there, I bought eight 4packs of four flavors each pack worth of Adkins Advantage shakes. They're delicious. Today is the end of my 3rd day and I've lost 15 lbs already, like whoa... Sean

I was thinking the same thing!

That's a great idea!!! My brother in TX is coming to visit the weekend before my surgery and I think I should have one too! I hope all goes well with your last appointments. I'm sure you'll do well! You'll be there in no time and will look back on times like now as old memories of the old you. Good luck with everything! Sean

I hate when they say that too! If I wasn't a loving man lol...

Thanks Mami and Turtle... I guess I don't have it to bad then. I can't do cold things like Popsicles lol, I never could. Am I the only one who dreams about food??? I see now that I have a serious food addiction. I'm in bed next to my wife and infant daughter but I'm thinking about food. I heard that most cravings go away after surgery??? Is that true? Sean

Thanks so much guys for the positive comments! We'll all be healthy and fit in no time! I did much better today. I had a few cups of sugar free Jello, and a few cups of low sodium broth. It REALLY helped me feel full in between shakes. Sean

2 shakes and a small meal sounds like Heaven! lol, My surgery date is 8 Feb 2013, and I'm overanxious! I can't wait to get this over with and get on with my life. I've been drinking plenty of Water today so I hope things get better. On a good note, I lost 5 lbs since yesterday! I hope I can keep it stead lol... Thanks so much you guys for the help! I'll definitely try to get more active on this site and try to help and be helped. Thanks! Sean

Thanks for the replies. I think you're right. I didn't realize it at the time, but I didn't drink ANY water yesterday... Idk, maybe I thought the shakes would be enough. I just woke up and I'm dehydrated. I plan yo drink much water today, hopefully I can get my energy back. I use the Atkins Advantage shakes, they're like Starbucks, that good seriously. Since I can only have up to 4 a day, I bought 4 flavors to break the monotony. Thanks again, I'll keep you all posted. Good luck!

Hey guys, I just finished my first day of straight protein shakes and I'm already burnt out. Any suggestions?
