I have nestles far free hot chocolate a couple times a week with redi whip on top. It's very low carb and a nice treat on chilly nights! I also keep sugar free Popsicles on hand for when I want something at night

Laura4923 does your hot chocolate contains milk? I can not have milk anymore. I buy fat free fairlife it's lactose free

I was sleeved on Aug 4th 2015. I've been losing my hair pretty regularly and noticeably for about a month now. I take biotin and use Bosley hair products. My diet is very varied.....I drink coffee and have alcohol fairly regularly. I drink a green smoothie with Unjury protein powder everyday and really just eat when I'm hungry. I'm down about 100lbs, roughly 65lbs since surgery.I had some very serious difficulties about 3 weeks after my surgery when I developed pancreatitis...worst 2 weeks of my life...hands down. But I made it through. In one way, I feel like I'm back to "normal living" for lack of a better word. I have my cravings....I'm a carb queen....but when I have those cravings, I'm able to have a couple bites and be satisfied. I don't overdo it and I eat very slowly...which helps. I'm starting my lifestyle classes this wednesday.....I'm guessing it'll be mostly about nutrition, but I'm not sure. I think I'm averaging about a 2-3lb a week weight loss. My only real exercise is walking at the moment.

So chime in my fellow August sleevies; how much have we lost? I'll start---98lbs--GO!!!!

46# lost since surgery 8/25/15. 80# lost once March 2015. 44 # til goal!!

96# lost since HW 349#. 103# til goal. Which was recently changed from 170# to 150#. I'm 5'8 so my BMW would be within normal range at 150#

99# in total :) Hoping for the 100# mark by next weigh in on Monday!

Me too Margie122!I'm hoping to reach 100 pounds lost by my 6 month check in. I also want good labs so I been staying on top of my vitamins. At my last check up my iron was dangerously low.

Aug 3 sleeved. Down 92.8lbs pre and post op. Would love to hit 100lbs by next Tuesday apt with my surgeon .

Also losing hair and I think my mind , in a constant state of fog!

Favorite new treats- sugar free mint life Savor

I'm down 68 pounds from my highest pre-surgery weight. Only 3 pounds to go to reach my first weight goal. I see my surgeon toward the end of February and very hopeful I will have achieved my first goal!

Great job Court3625! With only three pounds to go you would surely reach her goal by February

To proudmomof2- unfortunately the nestle hot coco mix has dairy in it :(

Awww. No Nestlé coco for me. I learned about no dairy the hard way lol.I guess I'll just stick with warming up my chocolate premier protein and just call it a day.
