Hello again ! I'm doing okay. I feel more normal but I have a fear of going back to,old habits. Anybody here do the 5 day pouch test diet? I'm 45 lbs away from goal.

Hello guys, just wanted to see how everyone was doing so far. How close are you to your goals? Protein ? Exercise ?

I wasn't very active before the surgery. But I was able to walk 3.25 miles and I was 40 lbs heavier than I am now. I think my nutrition may be the problem.

Hello guys! I tried to do a very basic exercise video to tone my inner thighs (it was about 10 minutes) and it damn near killed me. I had the sleeve about a month and a half ago and I feel like someone has sucked the life source out of me. I felt dizzy and needed to rest after. At my heaviest, I could workout harder than this. Is this normal? My cousin who was sleeved was RUNNING after her surgery. I am afraid to even try it again. Anyone else experience this?

Thanks for the support guys. I will try your advice. I think that I'm seeing how powerful food is to me. I have a real issue and I've been taking this journey lightly. In spite of the pain, I still do this to myself. It's like im addicted to food. I may need to go to therapy.

I'm about a month out. Had a stressful day and "binged" on some bad foods. I'm sick with nausea and vomiting. I don't have any self control.

I think its 5 grams of Protein per pill. for 5 would equal 25 grams of protein. I am going to ask my nutritionist about it tomorrow.

Hello everybody! I was sleeved on 9-24-14, about a month ago. I wanted to know what you guys thought about this idea of mine. I HATE the taste and smell of Protein powder. It makes me feel sick and I want to vomit. I saw that many greek yogurts are packed with protein. So, instead of the whey Protein Powder smoothie, I would use 14 oz of the fage greek yogurt (= 40 grams of protein) and mix it with equal and/or berries, cocoa powder, ect and eat/drink this daily instead. I havent been meeting my goals and I can't drink that disgusting stuff anymore. I will ask my nutritionist about it as well, and will update you guys on what she says. In addition, the protein tablets by humapro may work as well. Has anyone tried either of these? Is there any other protein substitutions out there that have worked for anyone????

Has anyone used these? If so, what's your experience been? I'm at the point of almost vomiting after ingesting protein powder. The taste and smell are so awful and I'm about a month post-op. My dr recommends 40-60 grams of protien daily. I know that would be like ten pills a day, but at least I would meet that goal. I could even try to break them in half if they are perforated.
