I don't do fake sugars or stevia. This morning my Protein Shake was greek yogurt. Isopure Protein Powder, almond butter, cacao (unsweetened chocolate) powder. A little bit of Water to blend and ice to make it cold.

I mostly just play with favors I like. Fage 0% Greek yogurt plus Isopure naked whey Protein provides a good 30 - 38 gms of protein. It's not too thick because I use water instead of milk. I ma vegetarian and have a lot of food allergies. Artificial food dyes & fake sugars are 2 of them. I use the Isopure because it's just plain whey protein. No added sugar or colorings. If I want to add sweetness I typically use raw honey.

do you use isopure unflavored? I have chocolate and vanilla but not a fan

Yes I use the unflavored. I can also mix this in with Soup. I emailed the company and was assured that it can be added to hot or cold liquids. I take one scoop of the Isopure and a tsp of whatever liquid I have whether it's soup, coffee or tea. I whisk that together until it's smooth then add it to the already heated liquid. Some days I don't have a big appetite but I want to get in mu Protein. A cup of soup or tea with Isopure mixed in is the perfect solution.

Ugh! That's too bad. Go back to what was working. Tell her the milk made you sick.

Probably not until you can eat and keep food down. I'm not sure. I didn't have these issues. I was back to normal fairly quickly.

still not doing well, I tried 2 teaspoons of mashed potatoes and was ill. I keep wondering if I am still drinking too close to eating. I'm living off of a half ensure and broth everyday along with Water and juice. I feel like I'll never be normal again. I throw up clear bile alllllll day long and still not back to work. I constantly feel sick.

I meant clear phlem all day. tons and tons of phlem

Jeez I'm so sorry. I can't even imagine how miserable and worried you must feel. What is your Dr saying about all this?

      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
