I don't know if it's an issue for me, but I do like to call my body parts by the correct term. Hell, I don't use text talk when I type and I insist on using correct grammar and punctuation in texts, too. Weird standards, I guess. #teamnokangaroo I love that! #teamnopouch yaaaaas!

I make coffee with genpro Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I make the Protein coffee by mixing genpro unflavored Protein powder with a little Water. It turns into a paste. Just enough to make it smooth. I add the instant coffee l, hot water, Splenda and a little cream or milk or whatever you use. It's a great way to get 30g of protein and enjoy coffee. Caffeine can dehydrate you, so it's still important to get all your liquids. I think it varies from person to person. My nutritionist gave me the go ahead and I've been having it since then.

I make Protein coffee everyday. I'm going to switch to decaf but my nutritionist said I could have coffee. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My doctor and nutritionist refer to the sleeve as a pouch. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Can you stretch your pouch by drinking to much Water? I'm just curious as I feel I can drink so much being only 24 days out. Sleeved 11/14/16 HW 260 SW 230 CW 220-223 GW 120-130 HT 5"1' Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Good idea! I definitely need to measure myself. I'm getting all my Protein in, and Water. However, I'm not working out as much as I'd like to considering I'm still in a little pain. I'm not sure whether to work past the pain or just wait. I did start lifting some 5lb weights today. Hopefully we see the scale move this week . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
