Nut: ok here is a brand that is fantastic!!!!! I swear you'll love it!!! It's called nectar Protein. So I go to Vitamin Shoppe to get it and mix it with Water almost threw up. As a matter of fact I started gagging. Now I'm turned off. But I need this protein any suggestions? I swear I wanna do right. So hard. But i am killing the crabs. Love love love it!!!!!!!!!

Have you tried WonderSlim Protein drinks? They have a mint hot cocoa, which is great. And right now I am drinking the Tangy Orange Protein Drink. Mixed with Water, it's basically like Crystal Light with protein.Also like the shakes that you can make into puddings by adding less Water are pretty good. Their stuff has been my saving grace!

which nectar did you get? I didn't like most of them either but I could handle the fuzzy navel one. Reminded me a little of orange juice instead of all the usual chocolate, vanilla and strawberry you usually have to choose from.

Hi sleeve buddy Amy!!! I haven't tried any of them. Isoplus I have seen but haven't tried it. I have a big strawberry nectar here I have to get down. But I will try some of the other brands. Maybe I'll put some in some pudding and mix it. Thanks for the suggestions ev 1.

You have a lower starting weight than a lot of people. (You're like me!) And you lost 10 pounds in 9 days. That's over a pound a day--a terrific loss! If you have a lower BMI to start with, you're closer to goal, so you won't lose as fast. You are doing nothing wrong!

Yes I'm in stage 2 of my diet I can have yogurt. I think I want to try premier, heard from other people they were tasty. If this doesn't work I'll try maybe 2 more then I'm done. I will see if the have Protein pills. They have everything in pill form. Ev 1 lose differently, 10 pounds is great!!! I guess maybe I'm heavier, or have more Water weight to lose. But you can be out buddy to , keep in touch compare ask questions but most of all encourage.

I only drink premier ready made shakes. They are a little bit more expensive, but in my opinion well worth it :) Don't give up you really need to get the Protein in!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
