Firstly, THANK YOU for the timely reminder, that fast food isn't fast, you have to drive there, wait and come home again - its junk food, JUNK JUNK JUNK :biggrin:

On the shakes, true they don't taste like Burger King shakes, but I honestly, hand on heart, enjoy the strawberry Optifast - but don't try me on the vanilla *arghhhhhh - YUK!

Try this:

Get the Carnation Instant Breakfast Vanilla sugar free

add a scoop or half a scoop of non flavored (yeah right) whey Protein

add fat free milk and a little ice

then add some fat free or sugar free or whatever Peanut Butter

mix it up and I promise you that you will LOVE it

(well as long as you like peanut butter)

You will also get lot's of protein from this drink

When I was doing this I did it for breakfast and it was approx 270 cal. per shake and 32 grams of protein

I hope you like it let me know!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
