As tweaks you could loose the crackers and peaches. Are you tracking your food? Are you tracking carb count also how much protein are you getting from food vs the shakes? Your good choices look pretty good overall though... could just be a stall. Keep doing what your doing and things will keep going down, even if painfully slow

That should say BMI not HIM lol

Wow 5 more weeks? I have 1 week clear liquids, one week of regular liquids and soupy foods then one week puree and that's it ... Did you have other complications? What was your starting HIM, just curious. Obviously you should stick to your surgeons recommendations but if it was me I would ask him some follow up questions as to why you will be on 5 weeks liquid protein. There maybe a reason that he did not clarify that's specific to you.

27th for me VSG

April 28th

Breath... this should alleviate some of the issues you have been dealing with. Will be thinking ok yoi

I'll add I wish we could get sample sizes of different protein... hate buying so much only to find out that flavor or brand just is not working out.

I like zero carb isopure. I just order off amazon by the gallon. Not bad at all but everyone has different preferences here.

(((((HUGS)))))

Awesome, keep us updated with your recovery!

Pump up da drama... Lol let's all sing

Congrats! One of the best decisions of your life I promise

Don't wait till the last minute or you will have headaches on top of your recovery pain.

Don't do it, you will just feel terrible about it after

Keep us updated! [emoji173][emoji173][emoji173]

Maybe just look into plenty of fish first?

Just wondering how often those that have had wls step on the scale? Why at that frequency? How do you feel when it has not moved or moved very little? What do you do in response?

Benifiber... tasteless and clear. Add to your protein shake

Have you considered self funding? Not sure if that is possible for you financially but if it is, lots of people do it.

April 28th ALM Dr Oritz

I will be going to Dr. Ortiz on April 28th. I have researched him a great deal as well as others in Mexico and spoken with a couple of people who he sleeved.

I have a the perfectionism issue, I know how clich`e but it's true! I did every diet you can think of. Gained and lost, gained and lost... if I slipped up and had one cookie then the entire day was ruined and I would have the whole sleeve. I understand that my behavior is illogical but for some reason I just keep finding myself there

Thank you for sharing

I am going to try Plato's closet and the goodwill for some items. Others I'm going to have to just buy. I work in the corporate world and can't get away with to much.
