  1. How tall are you? I lost lots of weight years ago and at 5ft 8 and 170s-180s people were telling me i looked sick. I'm 5ft8 and nervous that this will happen again with my surgery. I like a little thickness lol
  2. I truly needed to hear this. Thank you!
  3. Thank you! This is just what I needed to hear. [emoji4]
  4. Wow thank you!! I am still looking at all of the link provided. This is a great start. Thank again!!
  5. I can sympathize with your wife. The migraines just aren't worth it to me. I'm not quite sure if I will have the motivation to make them everyday myself. Haha I will look for other alternatives. Thanks and stay well!
  6. I have heard a lot about Isopure and will look into this. Thanks!
  7. Thank you! I find that I can tolerate monk fruit, stevia leaf and erythritol (not sure if we can use this) but not acesulfame-k and aspartame.Sucralose is questionable for my body as well. Unfortunately thats the majority of protein shakes. Making my own shakes may have to be my alternative.
  8. I don't like premier protein shakes and they give me headaches. The artificial sweetners in a lot of low sugar protein shakes give me headaches. Any recommendations for protein shakes? Plant based prefered. Thanks!
  9. Hello, I have a consultation for VSG surgery but I am nervous about how serious this procedure is and some lifestyle changes that will come with this. Weird things concern me more than the surgery itself like not being able to drink water with my food. That sounds extremely hard to me. I love water, especially when I eat. Would I be able to just take a tiny sip of water with meals? Taking vitamins daily for life also bothers me but I am coming to terms with this. My last fear is the fear of regain. I struggle with restrictions with food and fear I will over eat or turn back to my old ways that got me to the 280 lbs ( 5ft 8 in) that I am today. My husband loves to eat late and eat fast food. Eating food together is how we enjoy ourselves and I fear I won't have support when I change my eating habits. I guess I need some encouragement from you guys. Thanks.
