299. Again.

I lost. 70 pounds in college on a low fat diet and my hair fell out like crazy. It's common with significant weight loss, not just surgery.

Yes you request to join and someone approves you.

I was not allowed mashed potatoes or applesauce until 2 weeks out. Stick with what your doc tells you.

No, it's a closed group. Your friends won't see it. I joined it and I haven't told many people either.

I'm going to make these cauliflower mashed potatoes. Something that I don't have to feel guilty about eating! I'll be 3 weeks post -op on Thanksgiving so I can have soft foods. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/mock-garlic-mashed-potatoes-recipe.html

FB group is called "November 2014 Sleevers Everyone Welcome"

I'm 2 weeks post op. Eating soup, yogurt, refried beans, steamed sweet potatoes, scrambled eggs, spaghetti squash, cheese, etc. the first 2 weeks I was on liquids only.

I made this last night. Really good! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2013/01/baked-spaghetti-squash-and-cheese.html?m=1

I pour a Premier Protein pre- made shake into a Blender Bottle and add a scoop of GNC whey powder. Add crushed ice and shake and I never have any clumps. 50 grams of protein (I only drink half of it in the morning, about 6 oz, and the other half in the afternoon). And you can definitely add PB2 and other flavors to the premier Protein shakes...just pour them in a blender bottle and mix. I don't like blending my shakes in a magic bullet or blender because it makes them frothy, which I hate.

300 on the dot. Tried everything to get that darn scale to say 299.8 but no luck. Lol

Welcome and good luck in your journey!!
