So my Nut told me that everyone that fails at Lon time weight loss added carbs back to their diet too soon and too much. I haven't had any bread' date=' pasta, rice ect since surgery. What about you all? Is your Nut as strict as mine? HW 343 SW 326 CW 259 GW 177[/quote']my nut said your carbs shouldn't amount to more than your protein intake.

went out dancing last night, such a good time! and this morning I got up and went for a walk up the hill. I'm so amazed that I can now that that hill up one mile and it's almost no effort! No shortness of breath.

My friends and I will be doing the Run or Dye next weekend. Super excited!

LOVE our new healthy lives!

Do u drink shakes? I'm wondering how you meet your protein goal. I haven't met mine in a few days and my portions are bigger and I drink at least one shake a day. I'm trying to meet my goal but I can't eat anymore. I'm so stuffed by the end of the day.

I drink one shake a day. It is an 11 oz shake with 30 grams of protein (Premier Protein sold at Sam's Club). I normally split it so I drink half in the morning and finish it in the evening. My protein goal has been 50 grams per day. At my 3 month they bumped it to 60. By my 6 month I am suppose to be up to 80. By then though I will be able to have 1/2 cup per meal. Of course nearly all of that is protein.

Your shake is like two of mine. Are they any good? It would be great to only have to drink one a day.

I drink one a day as well, it's call Xtreme Smoothie, it's really good, 11 oz 35 gram of protein, plus vitamins and minerals, it's kind of expensive, around $32 for a twelve pack.

They only have two flavours, chocolate and vanilla. I have only used the chocolate. I find them to be OK. I have tasted better shakes, but since I only have to drink about 5 ounces twice a day, it works fine for me. They cost about $1.00 each, and like I said are sold at Sam's Club. I will say they are VERY filling!!

Oh, I should give you the other details! The shake has 160 calories, only 1 gram of sugar, 5 grams carbs, and 24 vitamins & minerals. I think it is a lot of bang for my buck!!

Awesome!! Thanks so much for the info. I'll check them out.

I been making 20 oz of diet v 8 juice w/2 sv oops of plsin protein powder in a shaker bottle. Taste great.

Ok so in 4 days I will be 4 months out. I'm 66lbs down. Went from 211 to 145. I have been having kidney stones and colic so they told me to switch from whey protein. Not easy. I wasn't good about shakes before. Lately I've been eating a lot of steamed edamame which are high in soy protein so that's nice. I've had 3 esophageal dilations for a stricture and I finally meet with my urologist today. Wish me luck! Kidney stones are a you-know-what!
