[color=rgb(47,79,79)]Hi Everyone :) I am new to the group but I'm not new to any weight loss programs except this one. I've probably lost around 3 whole people but gained them back and then some each at each loss. I have lost up to 86 lbs on my own and I gained about 100 back. I have been on the thin side but didn't realize it and I have been on the heavier side which is where I am now. People treated me so different at both sizes and even the sizes in between. I use to be an outgoing person until each heavier time period. Now I stay in my home unless absolutely necessary to go out. My Son does most of the grocery shopping. I can't handle how people treat heavier people. Now it is me that thinks differently about myself. I am a stress eater and boy have I had stress. I have been a caregiver for about 10 years and have recently become a caregiver to a 2nd person who I finally had to send elsewhere in order to try and survive. Self preservation. I am in my half way point to my end date before surgery. I am praying and hoping this will help me. My health has suffered with so many things and I want to live! [/color]
[color=rgb(47,79,79)]Just a little insight. Hope everyone is well and happy with the path they are on at this point in time. [/color]
[color=rgb(47,79,79)]Most sincere :) [/color]

Protein Shakes Not Filling?
Protein Shakes Not Filling?

I'm not to the surgery yet but have been practicing and trying to cut back. The Protein shakes and fruit and or greek yogurt mixed and I'm still hungry. It doesn't help at all yet.

Did you manage to do this? Aren't you allowed fruit or greek yogurt in your shakes for a liquid diet? I have heard also vanilla? I am wondering because I will be there.......in time. Thank you. Jackie
