Way to go. How are you sticking to it? What's your motivation?

akt1908 got a reaction from CrashNCamsMom in July RNY Page
First Christmas, since surgery on July 29th. I was not even hungry. I've never felt so free from overwhelming urge to devour sweets. I'm excited.

akt1908 reacted to karenmartin in 6 years today!
Today marks 6 years since I went into surgery and came out a changed person. I am so much happier than I ever thought I'd be. Life is better. I am stronger. I am smarter. I went into the hospital 6 years ago weighing 301 lbs. This morning I got on the scale and I am 122 lbs! I have a small frame and I'm 5'2. To me, I feel perfect. I am content. I am happy. The road here wasn't easy. It was emotional. It was hard. It was even lonely. ... But today, It is no longer hard, it's not emotional and I'm never alone. Happy Re-birth to me!!!

Even more disgusting is puking up everything you just ate because you didn't chew it well. You learn to do what needs to be done...

akt1908 reacted to terry1118 in What protein supplements are you taking?
I'm fourteen months out. I have a morning shake w/Chike high Protein coffee and crushed ice - delicious! It's like a Dunkin Donuts coffee coolatta and has two real espresso shots in it so it replaces my morning coffee. Added bonus: my chronic Constipation problem disappeared as soon as I began using it back in April.
I like CrunchO's Protein Snacks and occasionally I eat a Quest Protein Bar (at work or while shopping). I eat one Greek yogurt w/Bare Naked protein granola or a small amount of pecan pieces. Just those things daily put me between 45 - 55gr of protein. When I add my lunch and dinner it puts me well over 60gr but not usually over 90gr. My meals consist of tuna, shrimp, cheddar, egg whites, burger, turkey meatballs, or turkey chili - w/steamed veggies and a little (very little) brown rice, wheat Pasta, or Quinoa salad.

@@pik I know you are just sick and tired of the hospital at this point. You have had the toughest time, I believe, of all the stories I've read recently. I'm so sorry. I think I'd be regretting everything too, but hopefully they will get you well FOR GOOD and back on the healing path. I'm sure it's hard but try to think positive that at some point you WILL enjoy the weight loss and all of this other stuff will be behind you. Prayers for a speedy recovery. :-)
