this is what makes everything harder.. the free time I have now I'm unemployed and ... I don't know. I do now try to create a new hobbies to make myself busy ^^ and I might join language course since I like learning languages~~

Me too I heard a lot of good things about it I ordered samples too but I got so worried about the 6g of sugar and I asked many nutritions some said yes some said stay away and some didn't want to comment T^T my doctor too told me it's okay to drink coffee but don't add sugar and this kinda bother me with click >< the sugar makes me worry .. even when I won't drink 31g of it a day it will be less!! thank you for sharing and don't forget to share when you try click too~~

First of all I'm so sorry for reposting this but I guess it belongs in here and I need more answers (/^\) so many kind people answered me but I will love to here more~~ also check So Hello everyone~~ I needed to share this with you guys~~ I'm addicted to coffee .. all my life. I start drinking coffee back after 6 months from surgery and I drink it everyday (shot of espresso with 150ml of nonfat milk and stevia) I kinda got tired of it I wanted to change so I searched and I found this 2 products which basically Protein powder with real coffee as they claim!! Before I go on I wanted to show you this guys because - I wanted to see what you think about Protein Powder - what is your experience with it and your story - is it helpful or safe? - what your surgeons and your nutrition told you about protein powders as well~~ So take your space and share and just lets chat about them~~^^ First: javapro It comes with so many flavors. Second: click It comes with so many flavors also. *First I would like to say that 31g and 28g is way too much for a less than a cup which I usually drink (150ml) .. so I will use 15g max, which means half of this info!!! So now in the first one I don't know .. I think there is so much protein? The second one its great but there is a lot of sugar!!! what you guys think? - would you use one of them? or did you use one? - did anyone ask a nutrition about them before? - are they good for us or not? I really will appreciate if you guys give me some answers or share some of your opinions about them and about protein powders^^ Have a nice day~~

Oh I'm looking for a good brand to use too.. I asked about this 2 brands in a topic in here CLICK JAVAPRO A kind soul recommended your brand! the label seems awesome but i'm afraid it will have that Protein powder smell I can't stand it T_T CLICK doesn't have it (many ppl comment on that) .. but the 6g of sugar bothers me a lot!!! in a cup of coffee I will only use 15g of the powder so it might be 3g of sugar per cup what you guys think? is it too much? from this 3 brands which one you guys think your surgeon and nutrition recommend?

may I ask you what brand you are using (/^\)

My doctor too allowed me to drink coffee!! But he didn't even check my protein powders he is 100% against them :/ this is what makes me so confused.

I will look it up for sure~~~ Thank you so much for sharing :") I really appreciate sharing all the info you have~~ it dose really help... a lot.

I don't use protein powder (/^\) I tried too but the smell of the powder .. I couldn't handle it T_T so I thought I may use it with coffee to help me drink a lil ~~~ I do use chocolate but I kinda want something for everyday use (/^\)

Me too I'm so confused and not too sure >< oh you mean this one? Can I ask you something (/^\) do you know the protein powder smell .. that strong smell? dose this one have it (/^\) and it's only serviced as iced beverage? oh and the link I never saw this Bariatricpal products except for now after you guys post it they have Click on the site too!! I always mixed it with ice Water in a shaker bottle. No strong smell.....other than that of rich coffee. The mocha version is killer, too. mmm~~ sounds yummy >< I might give the small packages a try *-* thank you~~

that what makes me not so sure about it!! 6g is way too much T^T I might order the samples tho .. hmmm oh the ingredients I will show you .First one: javapro second one Click what do you think of them?

oh the info on the labels are for 31g only!! >< I was think of adding 15g (1 tablespoon) of this mix with hot Water as a change from regular coffee~~ my doctor said coffee is okay too~~ but should be sugarless~~ so your dietitian is okay with the Protein Shake? I think teaspoon is good this is a great idea it give some flavor for your coffee + the benefits~ I might give this method a try~

You are right my battle now is really with my mind!! all the things you mentioned I truly understand them because I go thro them everyday!! The compliments .. still until this moment I get confused when someone compliment me!! in my mind I'm like "why"? My mind is still makes me see the old me in the mirror!! and when I see the new me I become so afraid that I will get used to it then I will loss it all someday!!! it's a real battle as you said! and I'm trying my best to win it! Thank you ,, thank you so much for your words I 100% appropriate every single word♥

Saudi Arabia. the surgery been here for a long time but people used to do it and hide it it's only this early years that the surgery been more known and ppl can tell when others do it... there is a lot of good surgeons in here but therapist that specializes in bariatrics..!! O have to look more~~ I will for sure check the website thank you a lot your comments your words all of you helps me a lot It really dose and really thankful for you all T_T

I tried searching but since the surgery in my country is kinda a new thing and when someone have they tend to hide the fact that they had it must specialist don't have that big knowledge of the surgery ... I once been told by a specialist that she don't know that much about the surgery and it's better to ask my surgeon :/ but I didn't think of asking my doctor staff I think I will give it a try!! they actually may know someone. I tried to talk to my surgeon but he only believe in test results!! he saw that my blood test is fine and said that you are okay there is nothing wrong and it's something you need to fix it your self :/ Thank you so much .. I really don't know how to thank you all You may all don't know it but your words helped a lot it really did thank you ... thank you so much.

I really do understand that this surgery is not solution!! its a tool to help me.. and its almost on me to make it work or not... I'm doing my best to make it work.. I hope I will~~~ Thank you so much

Thank you for replying~~~ "You deserve to be healthy, happy, joyous" Thank you..made me tear.. I do want to be happy about what I achieved.. I don't want to worry all the time and being afraid about losing everything... I don't know if there is a therapist that will understand this kind of worries!! I tried to talk to some dietitians..but nothing..they all say the same line they save from years of working ... idk....!! but I will search more and talk to my doctor.. Thank you..really thank you.

Thank you for your reply~~~ problem is I'm still hungry and I crave food!! I'm aware of that I may damage my metabolism and health.. I think I really should talk to a professional about this. Thank you again~~~*hearts*

First I would like to say thank you for replying for my post~ I understand its harder to loss weight when I'm closer to my goal and I'm fine with it ... I already lost a lot that I'm happy with. I do think it's even harder with me not eating enough and I understand it may slow my metabolism down. It's just the guilt after eating that makes me ... tired I know I'm eating healthy and it's good for me and my body I guess that's why my blood tests are always good... but what makes me feel guilty is the quantity of the food .. I always feel like I eat a lot!!! I got to the point that now I don't know what is the right quantity that I should eat!!! again thank you replying the post I really do appreciate it.

Hello everyone, I'm not sure if this belong in here or not.. But I really do need some support.. Most people around me don't understand the surgery and what we go through so they really don't understand what I'm going through. Its been almost a year for my surgery (11 Jan 2015). I'm on diet since I did the surgery and all... There have been an ups and downs but I'm trying my best to survive... I lost weight .. losing weight become harder this days and I'll tell you why in a min..!!! my problem is .... I look at myself at the mirror and feel like this won't last...!! I'm so afraid that I will lose all of this someday.. all I can think of is .. what if some day I gain weight again .. what if I return to my old weight.... All I can think of is pretty and beautiful thing don't last. and because of this I start to have so much guilt and I cry myself out whenever I eat anything..and I only eat healthy food. I'm afraid I will stretch my stomach again .. I'm so scared it will expand .. Every meal turns into a hug guilt and I start asking myself "why did I eat this and that now my stomach will expand.." I stopped going out with my friends and even visiting people because I'm afraid I'll eat and I will ended up expanding my stomach.. I locked myself in my house...... I start to eat less than 1000 calorie a day and I do exercise.. I start to feel dizzy when I stand up .. every time.. I don't loss weight like before .. my process become slower and slower and my body now is craving all kinds of food especially sweets and chocolate..!!! I'm tired. I'm really tired of over thinking..tired of having to cry after every meal.. I'm really tired but it's out of my hands .. I don't want my stomach to expand I don't want to get to the old weight I'm tired of being dizzy most of the day and being afraid I will faint someday.. I do a blood testing for vitamins and all every 3 months .. everything is okay but I still feel dizzy .. and there have been some days when I actually faint!! If anyone went through this please tell me how can you get over this? I want to eat a meal without crying and feeling bad... I want to eat my treat without crying and turn my day to bad day!!! I tried to stop treating myself but I couldn't .... "I use healthy/diet chocolate and sweet only" I'm sorry this is a long post but I'm really desperate.

So glad to hear you are doing well! Sounds like you've made a big improvement in your eating and it is helping you get back on track. Putting protein first really does help keep you full and energized. And like you said, if you go out or have something not-so-great for you one day, there's no reason you can't get right back on track the next day or even just the next meal! I really did made an improvement! and made up my mind and with time I just learned its the new me and I have to know how to deal with me hehehe and we all will face time when we play with our regime and eat some bad stuff but I think if we can go back to our regime then it won't hurt~~ tbh thanks to this site I could now think this way I can say I know myslef more now~ i'm so glad I found this site♡♡ found you all♡

I took everyone advice. and start eating my protein and veggies and I did notice some improvement!! I get full faster and for longer time!! and also an improvement as me!! I used to be a lil negative and frustrated from the hunger!!! but not anymore ^^ there is somedays esp when I go out I eat bad things (/^\) but the next day I go back to my regime (/°\) So I'm really thankful for all of you and I hope we all can achieve our goals♡♡♡
