Nicole

I live in ambridge.. about 20 minutes from pittsburgh :]

I get a surgery date hopefully next week so too early on to be a help. Good to see other local people on here posting. I hope to find a mentor\buddy here too after the surgery!

I'm 8 months post operation

I actually live in Beaver Falls which isn't that far from Ambridge

I'm from beaver falls:)

Oh that is awesome

@destineex33 where did you have your surgery done at? At the moment I feel like I'm doing something wrong and the weight isn't coming off. Like I don't know if I'm not eating enough or eating the right things.

How long ago did you have surgery? I go through periods where My weight loss stalls. Once I had a whole month. If You're not eating enough your body will go in starvation mode, maybe that's What it is

I had my surgery on April 1st of this year. I usually eat 3 meals a day 95% of the time. I get 40g of Protein through my Isopure drink a day. I haven't ate sweets or any bad stuff. I'm starting to try foods again but get scared I'm going to get sick

Where do you get your protein drinks at? I'm still not finding one I like. Sounds to me like You're doing everything right.. probably just stalling a bit

What are you eating so far

I found these drinks at GNC called Isopure. There are usually in the refrigerator section and in a glass bottle. They have all kinds of different favors. grape and alpine punch are my favorite. They are kind of expensive but if that's the way I have to get my Protein I will. I usually have skim milk with sf chocolate syrup in the am followed by 8oz of Protein Drink. For Breakfast I usually eat lot and fit Greek yogurt and a fruit cup. lunch is usually a meat protein with veggies and same with dinner

Another Pittsburgh girl here. I'm just south of the city tho. Had my surgery on the 6th of this month at West Penn.
