  2. I make sure that I get my Protein in, usually 70 grams and never count my calories. I don't eat carbs or at least not many but I figure if you are eating protein you are fine. I am almost 8 weeks post op and down 30 lbs. Sent from my iPhone using VST

    Grazing..

    I did this the first month also, but I don't think it's bad if you are eating Protein. Once you get on more solid foods you will slack off eating so often. I agree with others though and like to eat something every 3 hours. Always something with protein Sent from my iPhone using VST
  5. Well I just returned from a 2 week vacation in Florida with no scale. I was pretty happy when I came home with a 3.2 lb weight loss. I know it wasn't huge but I have never lost weight on vacation!!! Feeling happy, but now it's time to get back hard core!!! Sent from my iPhone using VST

    Just a question.

    I went back after 2 weeks because I had lifting restrictions. Energy wise I needed 2 weeks off. Sent from my iPhone using VST

    Thinking about the sleeve

    The sleeve is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I researched for a year and I'm so happy with my decision. FYI in my class seminar there were 5 out of 8 people that had the band and were revising to the sleeve because of complications and the band did not work for them. After surgery they are all doing great with the sleeve. Sent from my iPhone using VST

    Does coffee effect weight loss?

    I got coffee in the hospital and have a cup every day with skim milk and sweet n low. I'm losing great and my coffee has caffeine. Sent from my iPhone using VST
  13. My calories are usually closer to 800-900, but I do struggle with drinking 64 oz of liquid. I think more calories and liquid will help a lot Sent from my iPhone using VST

    BMI Help!

    If its not over 40 they won't approve unless you have other issues. You are so close just eat, gain a couple pounds and go back. The surgeon just be helpful in wanting you to get approved. Sent from my iPhone using VST
  18. Hi all I'm 6 weeks post op and have woken up twice in the middle of the night with vomit taste in my mouth. It burns soooo bad and made me feel like I couldn't swallow and catch my breath for a few min. I take my Prilosec daily. I did have a snack before bed so maybe that was it. Just curious if this has happened to anyone else ? Sent from my iPhone using VST
  19. Yes you need your protein but there's no need to make yourself drink something that you don't like when there's plenty of options!! Sent from my iPhone using VST
  20. My Dr said I could have milk based Protein shake day 3 post op. he said it was much more important to get protein in and the muscle milk helped so much. I still have one every morning to jump start my protein for the day Sent from my iPhone using VST
  21. I had same issue in the beginning then found the chocolate Muscle Milk powder and blend one scoop with skim milk. It's yummy and has 24 g of protein with the milk. Sent from my iPhone using VST
  22. I'm addicted to the scale also, but now on vacation for 2 weeks and forced not to know!!! It's killing me but maybe I will be real surprised when I get home Sent from my iPhone using VST
