Had surgery on 4/12/17 and I've lost 41 pounds since my only weigh in but today was my first day doing 86 grams of protein.... I had to do 2 scoops of my Syntrax Lemon Tea which is 23 grams a scoop twice. I don't know about y'all but protein has been my worst enemy next to those chewable multivitamins

My back hurts way less

Made my first mini goal of reaching 208 lbs, have to share a quick split screen! (Disclaimer: this happens to be a fabulous angle and I'm wearing the hell out of some industrial strength Spanx)

Absolutely. Post op now. My doc/nut office only encourages us to listen to our bodies in regards to foods and what to eat. Don't eat just because it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Eat because you're truly hungry. I'm finding my stomach to cramp when I'm hungry. Granted I'm only 5 days out from surgery, but it's definitely been a time for me to learn my cues and listen. My body will change and I'll have more to learn and listen for.

Dear Harmonyherb, Papaya Enzyeme works wonders for food that is stuck. I take it and it really helps can buy it over the counter its not that expensive and like 30 mins later you should feel better. it helps break up food that is stuck

My husband doesn't eat fruit or veggies lol. He's kind of like a child ;-), but he's willing to try.

My wife has been losing weight right along with me even though she did not have surgery. It has been awesome.

This makes me kind of worried, my sense of smell is already overly sensitive to a ridiculous degree....Maybe it will go the other way for me...
