Congratulations on reaching your goal weight!!

It's where you can log your meals, exercises. Keep up with calories, carbs, Protein by logging in and inputting your info. What kind of exercises you do...you can input that and it'll tell how much you've burned....check it out. www.myfitnesspal.com I thought you were on there as illusionalta but I didn't see a picture so I couldn't tell if that were you...now I know it's not.

Btw, are you on myfitnesspal.com?

It is so wonderful to see success like yours. It give others (like me) the motivation; inspiration to keep going, to keep moving, to keep pushing. Most of all: TO NEVER GIVE UP!! Fantastic-Inpirational-Outstanding!!!!

I like Jay Robb. I can tolerate it and it doesn't taste like shoe leather (very thick shoe leather ). I'm partial to the vanilla although I like the chocolate (strawberry isn't bad either). I guess you can tell I like it.

All the best to you. CoolBreeze

Now you shouldn't, it's carbonated and will definitely give you gas. It will also give you pains in your stomach. Not a good feeling ... Trust me I was told if you going to drink a soda you should let it go flat, which kind of defeats the purpose of drinking a soda. CoolBreeze

Had surgery on June 26 and I couldn't hold liquid down for more than 10-15 min about 10 days after surgery. Went to see my doc (1st appt after surgery was July 9), he sent me for an x-ray and found no leaks (thank God) but could not figure why I was not holding liquid so he put me on an previcid(ish) medication - I can't pronounce the word - now almost 4 months post op I'm doing fine and was given permission to try any type of food except raw foods and if I can tolerate (the first time) it I can put it on the list to eat - but sparingly....if I can't tolerate it - LEAVE IT ALONE - FOR GOOD. Continued success to you

I use MFP to keep track of my water, protein, carbs, calories ect. It has become staple on my iPhone. lol I'm on it everyday. I'm not sure there is another app and if there is...I stay with MFP.

Same here...11 weeks 52 wonderful! congrats on being Sleeved and welcome to VST.

I agree that if you feel ok then go for it. Now having said tha,You just have to be careful that you're not going too fast too soon and burn out too quick. Jump starting again could be slow process. You should give yourself a rest day in between the workouts. You don't want your body to give out far in advance of you getting to goal. 7 days in week...exercise 1 day, rest, exercise, rest, exercise, rest - saves wear-n-tear on the body. Just a suggestion. Good luck.

this could be brunch tomorrow

I'm putting this one in my VST folder

I have yet to try quinoa, what does it taste like... it the texture of rice, couscous? I'm ready for new ideas.

I agree with rootman. 10 days out for me was about an oz every 15 min or so...getting in 4 oz in 15 min is amazing, but it will depend on how often you go to bathroom too. and what color your urine is, and if it's too dark I would suggest the ER .... to be on the safe side. At least a phone call to the doctor's office. Bottom line, drink at the pace you are comfortable with. Blessings to you Much success on your journey
