Have a cup of coffee and enjoy it! Straws are the only way i can drink slowly. When i try to drink out of a cup, i always drink too much and it hurts. Straws help me measure each sip. I don't even think about it anymore.

In time, try a couple fries. I bet you will think they are nasty. All i can taste is grease and they leave a funky film on my tongue.

Alcohol...sure, but be careful. I get tipsy on just a few sips.

You will find you can eat normal...just smaller amounts. Your probably just in your freak out, "this crap sucks" phase. It gets soooo much better!!!

try a small cup of coffee and add a vanilla Protein shake.It is soo good. I get my caffine and my Protein and I don't need sweetener because the shake makes it sweet. I swear I love it!

Does that kinda make it taste like coffee with Creamer and sugar? How strong is the vanilla taste over the coffee taste?

I do this all the time! But I use instant coffee powder (Bru - the most popular brand in India). I just add 1 tsp coffee powder to my vanilla Protein Powder and blend it with cold milk or milk + ice cubes. I dont like the skimmed milk or soy milk so I just use regular milk (3%). I love that cold coffee shake!! :)

The only way that I can get my Protein Shake in is by adding either coffee or reduced-fat PB. I like both variations.

The vanilla taste isnt strong at all. It tastes like coffee with creamer.

I assume they use a blender...but I'll tell you how I do it with just a spoon...google "powdered peanut butter". Heaven.

I love it too Jazzmin...the protein & coffee mix is really good. I do the same thing except I use iced Decaf coffee. The caffeine was giving me heartburn.

You're right, I use a blender. I use the JIF PB and blend it with cold milk or milk+ice cubes and Protein powder. I blend it twice to get a smooth latte.

I haven't tried powdered PB. Need to check if it is available in India. Thanks for the tip! :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
