Premier proteinia syntax nectar
@@Cyr I was doing 2 shakes a day with the premier, now I do one chocolate ready made shake with one scoop of syntrax PB cookie mixed In for 53 grams of protein (14oz) I eat though. If I don't feel much like eating I will make two that day and easily get 106 grams in.

Taste change?
@@brandy31 My taste didn't really change at all. I don't have hunger anymore but when I do eat I still like what I eat...everyone's different.

My journey
If your only drinking 4oz of the shake at a time make sure it's high protein. I mix a premier protein shake (ready made) with one scoop of syntrax PB cookie protein . It makes about 14oz and has 53 grams of protein. If you could break it up throughout the day you would be doing pretty good.@@smcclur3

Hello guys, some questions :)
I would say do a BMI calculator put in weights until your in the normal weight category and shoot for that. Anything more is just icing!

help! so nervous! advice?
I think most everybody feel some part of that. I was unsure/Nervous up until they knocked me out. I kept telling my husband "they won't care if I leave, I'm sure it happens all the time" "we should just go" I am incredibly thankful everyday that I went through With it! I'm still new-ish 10weeks but in that short amount of time I have lost 40 lbs, went from a size 18 to 12/14. I have no hunger (best thing ever!) my life no longer Revolves around food. I don't wake up every morning "ready to start a new diet" and I don't go to sleep at night feeling like I "failed another diet attempt" it was such a vicious cycle that I am extremely happy to be rid of!! I know it's scary but the benefits are so much more Awesome! Now, I didn't have any post op issues, I had a decent recovery and I'm blessed to not have the hunger (as of yet) every one is different so keep that in mind. I wouldn't change it for anything! I wish you all the best!

Nuts/trailmix
10 weeks out and I still don't. Not because I can't but because they are trigger foods for me and I will eat more than I should...even at a slow pace. But nuts are good for you if you can control It!! I'm just not willing to take that chance......yet
