Today, I feel good. Getting up & down seemed to be the worst esp.with our mattress,boxspring on the floor. I feel good esp with the gas leaving.That was the pain I had. I'm having a good milkshake with protein now(yummy).

Hi my fellow sleevers, 3 weeks post on Monday... Today@ work, I noticed when I had a few sips of my protein shake, it made me feel kinda puky, so I decided to not push it. And this afternoon, I had some Isopure, it did the same thing:( Does anybody know why that is?

I am so struggling with eating! I thought the mushies would help but everything tastes yuk! I'm sick of protein drinks. They either give me the runs or make my stomach turn. The mushies almost immediately give me the runs. I long for some "normal" food. Nothing fancy, but just "real." Anyone go through this?!

My doctor wants me to go on all clears until next week- clears??? OH GOD. And he just called in a stronger nausea medication for me... How am I gonna get in my protein? Will I be ok????

I am going through kaiser to get the sleeve done. I am currently attending the Options program. I have one more class to go. I started the class at 222 lbs i am 5'2" and I am currently weighing 211 lbs. I am excited to see the weightloss come off now i can just imagine what i am going to be like once i do the surgery and i loose more weight. I am doing this procedure for my family and for myself I have let go of myself i dislike to go go shopping for clothes for me and when before th...

Hi everyone! I am sorry I couldn't get online sooner to report about getting sleeved last Wedesday! Today, 6/8/11 is my one week surgiversary!!!! I feel very good. I am hitting my liquids goals with no problem. I am still falling short on my protein target of 70 to 90 grams. I am have completed 3 weeks of liquids only two weeks pre surgery and one week post surgery. The biggest reason I am not hitting my protein goals is I AM SO TIRED OF SWEET! Isn't t...

I slept in really late yesterday and don't think I got in enough liquids. So I am up early today to babysit and I'm getting my protein and liquid on early today! Have a great day everyone!!

I've discovered that I am an emotional eater. I got mad at my girlfriend last night so what did I do? I went to the store and bought a bag of Hot Fries, and a lemonade. I ate 3/4 of the bag of Hot Fries. I didn't eat dinner or anything remotely healthy or full of protein, I just wanted something that I wanted at that time. When am I going to learn that food is NOT a substitute for feeling what I'm feeling?

I am determined to start tracking my food intake again. I def. see the scale move better when I'm counting calories/carbs/fat/protein. My next hurdle is making the time to fit in some sort of exercise.

OMG--- just made the weirdest, yet best soup ever--tons of protein too!!--- its tuna, onion, miso, mushroom bullion, 4 egg whites, and when its done 1 slice of white cheddar process cheese... then I blended it and it is sooooo good!!

Good morning all, I just wanted to share how I was feeling this morning and get some feed back for you guys. I am 30 days post-op and I have only lost 16.4 lbs. last week I didn't loose anything. So most of my weight lost came during the first 2 weeks! I was sure that I would have lost more by now. What am I doing wrong? I must admit that I have been having a hard time finding a protein that I can drink without gagging. All of the ones that I've tried have been disgusting and I c...

OK - MOnday start of new week.... I am setting my scale aside because it is crushing my spirits. I got on today and it said.. 167 - So NO more scale for a week and we will see what happens. Upping H2O, protein and lowering carbs to see it I can get this going. I was so close to goal before... GRRRRR. Strange thing is my cloths actually feel like they fit better than 2 weeks ago

Proud of myself...went to Golden Coral this morning with my sweetie and my son. I drank my protein shake, while EVERYONE else around me ate all they could eat. I didn't even want to eat that food. Actually, smelling all that food turned me off!

again i havent lost anything, i even started protein shakes again

The last few days have sucked!! UGH! And not even because of this surgery, but having two very sick little ones Slacking on my water and protein while trying to take care of them has me beat so today was a super water intake day and so is tomorrow!!

Wondering wth to do for dinner. Think I'll just make me a super thick pb & choc protein shake. Everyone else is on their own... lol

What's on your mind?YAY!!! 1 1/2 protein drink down since 5 am! think I was trying to thick of a liquid.. thanx for everyone's help and comments!

Today has been a good day. Still very tired due to the lack of calories, protein or carbs, but getting in a lot more water! The bad news? Very hungry, and not just head hunger, I really want something to much, but no such luck for another 10 days!

Going back to Options tomorrow Pamelaam too yayyy!

Option class was a bust dont get me wrong i liked it but i cant start my 12 option classes til 20111 because they are all full!!!

i'm so excited my options classes start tomorrow!!

I am really having trouble losing weight pre-op. Initially, I lost 10 lbs and then life took over and I wasnt able to get back to the gym as regularly. The protein shakes disgust me. I found out adding a banana isnt good for my diet, according to the nutritionist. Yet, it helped me to get the shake down by cutting the whey taste. I havent given up yet and I wont. But I am trying to gather up my willpower. The surgeon didnt give me a set amount of weight to lose. I guess she just wanted to see...

Why would you choose failure when success is an option?

BZ just got inducted into the dumbest sleevers hall of fame...BZ was thirsty you see and ready to check out at the grocery store sodas are too sweet for my new taste buds and the regular water 4 lanes down from mine...my best option PERRIER! Oh yah BZ bought Perrier, got into her car and proceeded to gulp once...twice and felt an explosion like pain in the tummy, nausea, let out the loudest burp her kids ever heard...needless to say DON'T TRY THIS! My Perrier days are over...bac...

One scoop of unflavored Unjury protein powder to a bottle of Frappuccino Mocha Light is not bad. Not bad at all.
