I brew a pot and add a bit of skim milk!

when I'm out, I love a latte, but in Australia, this is European style coffee, which means a latte is 1/3 strong espression, 2/3 steamed milk (I always choose skim) served in a small glass. Likewise a cappucino is about the same proportion of espresso and steamed milk, with the milk froth on top and a light dusting of chocolate powder (negligible calories) served in a hot cup.

Learn to love coffee not all those confectionary Condiments that go with it. They are simply no good for you and make dieting nearly impossible. When you do have them, consider them a dessert, and plan for them, not simply a drink.

I find even if I wanted those types of things (and occasionally I'll have a yen) I find walking around sucking on a big plastic cup just the most horrible look! That puts me off anyway. I like to sit down and drink it out of real cups.

Ya gotta try this. Coffee AND Protein. Hot or cold. I use half milk and half Water for even more Protein. Yummy. I ordered it through Amazon.< /strong>

Make every moment CLICK with the first and only espresso protein drink!

I always just used my Body Fortress or Unjury chocolate Protein Powder, and added a tsp of Medaglia D'Oro instant Espresso coffee powder to it. I stir both into cold Water and then warm it gradually so the whey Protein doesn't chunk up. 30 seconds at a time, stirring well in between until it's the temperature I want. I make a 12 oz mugfull at a time and it starts my day off with a nice warm drink that gives me a protein and caffeine boost.

I found my Click at Walmart here. Find it is better with a full 10 oz or more of liquid to the serving scoop, but then I am not used to sweet coffee so perhaps that is why. I am now drinking black Decaf in the morning - almost a full cup now, but like the Click once in a while in the afternoon.

I wish they had the "Click" product at MY Walmart! ... I just ordered some online...whew....over $20 for 14 servings...but I have to remember that it's high Protein as well.

If you don't mind me asking Stoongal...how much was it at Walmart?

Tracy, I don't remember, it was a while ago I bought it. I was just at Walmart yesterday, and am leaving in the morning for Alison's in Lethbridge. I will check next week when I am back, and let you know. Unless we end up at Walmarts there - who knows, back on the 30th!

Happy holidays everyone!

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
