My doc requires 800-1000 calories/day and 80-100g of protein/day. I lose about 2-3 pounds a week which is what he said they want to see. I am currently at 41 pounds lost. Feeling great. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 271.2 GW 180 (for now)

Lost 6 pounds this week! Yay! SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 271.2 GW 180 (for now)

Pink Grapefruit nectar was the least Protein aftertaste to me! But like everyone else, I mix and refrigerate. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

I have a black lab that is my baby. Her name is Sophie and when she knows I don't feel good, she lays her head in my lap. Sooo stinkin' sweet. Now if my husband only had that kind of sympathy LOL. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

I wanted to share my news. I went to the Doctor today for my 2 month check up. Since my last visit, I have lost 14.5 pounds of pure fat. I gained a half a pound of muscle! Whoop whoop! My Doc said, "well you are done, cause I have nothing to fuss at you for! Whatever you are doing keep doing it!" I am on cloud 9. Down 32 pounds total! And bought the cutest Easter dress two sizes smaller! SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

Anyone try Supreme Protein Bars? I had them before GB and really prefer the taste of them, but I noticed that they have a high amount of sugar alcohol. I don't want to "dump", so checking to see if anyone has had a problem with them.

I am using Syntax Nectar for protein. It is a change from shakes and it helps with my fluid intake. 1 1/2 scoop in 20 oz. water, 39.5 grams of protein. My hardest time is breakfast. Scrambled eggs got old quick!

I have had 3 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts in my house this week. I haven't eaten any, but girl I know how hard it is to say NO. Don't beat yourself up, and it is good that you aired it out. Next time think "Are these cookies worth sabotaging everything I have achieved for myself". Hang in there, we all stumble!

Hello Everyone. I have been reading through the posts and I wanted to join in. My surgery date was 1/24/13. My starting weight was 311 and Day of surgery was 308.5 (that darn colon cleanse). Today I am 282. Loving the choice I made and look forward to getting to know some of you. You seem to be a very supportive and uplifting crowd.

I switched to Lean Shake from GNC. Vanilla is very good, may be a little sweet for some people, but I like it. I also use Syntax Nectar Pink Grapefruit. Love it, no protein taste and change up from water.

Congrats! You will LOVE him. Suzanne his PA is awesome too!

I made Zucchini Lasagna tonight. It was great and no pasta! I layered strips of zucchini instead of the noodles. Everything else can be your usual lasagna recipe. Yum Yum

Dr. Kenneth Mitchell did mine, he is great too!

I FINALLY after much taste testing found one I like! Syntax Nectar makes Pink Grapefuit. I mix 1 1/2 scoops in 20 oz. of water. I find it to be the best yet! And there are a lot of very disgusting ones

I am in Charleston. Actually I work in Charleston, live in Moncks Corner. Who is your surgeon?

Awesome, going to try very soon
