Seems there is a bit of a 20's trend! I was sleeved 12/28 and am currently down 25. My frustration lies in that I lost 23 in the first three weeks! Its crawling now. I'm thinking its a mixture of the healing, not being cleared yet for exercise, and moving from liquid to solids In a month (soft solids now). We all have gone from 300 to about 700 cals by this point (if I'm way off let me know!!!:-)
I literally lived on eggs in the puréed stage with a wedge of laughing cow! A few times I had meatloaf (I always bake with potatoes on top) made it for the family. I did a half beef half turkey mix for the first time and no one could tell. I made portions for me in a cupcake pan... Perfectly portioned!!
Rosemary I had my surgery 12/28. I've lost 25... Which came off in the first three weeks. I haven't lost any since so feeling a bit frustrated but trying to focus on the positive. I've been incredibly sick... Seem to catch everything that floats past me. That's said I also am moving around so much better already. Start 315... Current 290. Also dealing with trying to figure out my hunger and fullness levels. It's weird but not positive I'm feeling either. How about everyone else?!
Rosemary was it thru Iowa weightloss? I am wishing you the best! You should be on solids now, right? How's that going? Your question was about protein. I'm using gnc protein and I've also used some shake bar protein... It's a bit hit and miss for me. I've just ordered iso 100 fudge as it's rated one of the best... Hopefully I'm feeling the same! I'm finding that so many smells just are repulsive to me.
