  1. Hey. Hang in there. It is hard. But u can do it. Try cutting carbs out completely...i know its hard but thats what always helped me...and carbs also mean carrots n apples. And keep ur fruit to once a day. I really hope this helps Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

  12. Ive also been sampling with protien shakes. I really like nectar from syntrax. It has fruit flavors like fruit punch..grape..grapefruit and many others. It has milky flavors too...buy the fruit have been my favorite. I love the Grapefruit n ice tea. U can buy the sampler to try all the flavors before getting a tub. Have u considered an unflavored protien that u can add to soups n stuff? Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  13. Thank you for the suggestion. I would just like to point out the soduim levels. Sometimes we over looks this ..i certianly do. But sometimes the soduim amount is insane. And too much soduim can hinder wieght loss and cuase medical issues in the long run. I personally never used to loom at soduim..only carb.. protien ..fiber and sugar. Until my NUT suggested i pay closer attention to it since it may have been a factor in losing. And sure enough when i cut soduim i began to lose more.

  15. :/ no one called her a failure? There was no judging.. Everyone gives advise differently...some sugar coat it...and some give a dose of tough love. Whenever anyone posts here for advise..they r going to get both soft and tough advise. Everyone here has there own struggle. And everyone here should be able to express there opinion.

  16. Hey everyone. Im post op. I have my mast nutritionist appointment coming up in december 21. Im in middlesex county. I was just in jersey vity two days ago lol Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  17. Which brands have u tried? Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  18. Corn syrup is a sweetner ..not sugar. Corn syrup is made from corn. And its one of the worst types of articial sweetners. Many major studies conducted have concluded that corny syrup makes u feel like u cant satisfy the "hunger feeling" and increases in circulating triglycerides (which prevent the hormone leptin from telling the brain you’re full) Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  19. Regular cane sugar (sucrose) is made of two sugar molecules bound tightly together -- glucose and fructose in equal amounts. The enzymes in your digestive tract must break down the sucrose into glucose and fructose, which are then absorbed into the body. High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) consists of glucose and fructose, not in a 50-50 ratio, but a 55-45 fructose to glucose ratio in an unbound form. Since there is there is no chemical bond between them, no digestion is required so they are more rapidly absorbed into your bloodstream. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  20. Ive read that corn syrup..isnt recognized by ur liver. So it cant give that "im full" feeling. And it also has sugar. Id stay away from this...it will just make u crave more sugar Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
