I agree with you totally. I was sitting in the waiting room at my doctors last month and this patient was like do you cheat? Then another patient asked me the same thing...come on tell me you cheat. I said no I don't cheat. If I cheat it defeats the whole purpose. These two patients couldn't believe I was ever "fat" as they put it. The nurse got so annoyed and said "actually she has lost over 100+ pounds in 6 months. It makes me so sad that people want to find a way to "cheat". Cheating got me to 271 pounds and now I'm under 140 in 7 months. I don't want to cheat...I don't think it's worth it anymore. I didn't have major surgery to alter my insides to cheat with soda.

What did your doctor or NUT say? Did they give you a plan? Every doctor is different.

My doctor said no soda ever but everyone is different v

I have to stop 30 minutes before and can't drink for an hour after.

Your doing great. 10 pounds a month. Don't compare yourself to others. Everyone is different an has a different plan.

I have been taking it and it hasn't helped with the hair lose. The doctor said it won't do anything and that it's a "good" sign when your losing hair. I didn't agree.

He wasn't that close a friend. Lol.

I'm not complaining at all but I get so full after one or two bites. Is this normal? It takes me over an hour to eat 3 ounces of protein.

I thought it would be very hard but I don't crave it. I do pass them by and miss the comfort level of it, but I have no regrets.

I keep saying I want to be a certain weight and then I keep making it lower. I think 8 more and I'm done. Wore a size 4 dress yesterday and it was big on me. I think I'm pretty much done... But so scared to eat more. Now the hard part really starts...maintaining!!!

I go every month for a doctor and NUT appointment. I love them and hope they never stop. They keep me motivated and the NUT is fantastic. We go over any and all food, vitamin, etc. My surgery was 10/15/12 and I am down 127 pounds. I want to lose another 8 and then I start goal. I will continue seeing both the doctor and NUT every month.

Do you have the egg yolk?

I can't imagine it taking 18 years off our lives. I have my monthly checkup on Friday and plan on asking my doctor. I know his response is going to tell me to stop reading these types of posts and forums.

If you are having chewable vitamins do you want 30 minutes after drinking to have them and then the hour after to drink?

Lol. That's the craziest thing I have ever heard.

Where did this 18 years come from??

I had it once about 6 months out and it was sooo good. I stuck with sashimi and no rice.

Have you tries drinks that are higher in protein?
