I lost 8 lbs. Tons of people lost more than me. I gained back the whole 8 lbs. in the hospital! Damn IV fluids...

I simmer plain chicken broth with dried rosemary & thyme and add a tsp. of Better than Bouillon and it is delicious.

Has anyone tried Isopure Protein Drinks?
magtart replied to Aunt GG's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I drank them pre surgery and still drink them. I have 1/2 bottle every afternoon for a snack. I like apple/melon the best. -
Yes, they are.

What foods are highest in protein?
magtart replied to atlchick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I mix 1 single serve pouch of tuna with 1/4 C .2% cottage cheese and 1 T. of regular mayo for 2 servings. 1 serving has 83 cal., 2g carbs, 3g. fat, 1 Fiber, and 13 Protein. I often eat this for lunch with 1/4 of an avocado. -

I would like a mocha flavor. I sometimes pour some into my coffee for the same effect. -
How soon can I expect to get back to a sit down/ Clerical Job
magtart replied to slocin12's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I would say when you are off any pain meds and don't feel exhausted. It is different for every one. I don't work, but it was over two weeks until I didn't feel like a zombie by early afternoon. -

I have gained 14 lbs in 4 days! MAGIC (FML)
magtart replied to MN_Thin0211's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I left the hospital 8 lbs heavier than when I went in. It took me over a week to lose it again. It is all the IV fluids they pump into you. It takes a while to get rid of it. -
Try drinking with a sippy cup and hold your nose. I know it sounds stupid but it worked for me.
-
Greek yogurt and pudding?

The only time I puked was when I finished eating and forgot and took a big gulp of Water. The water along with a little food just sort of slid back out. Wasn't really like puking.

normal not to be overly nervous?
magtart replied to truck8595's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wasn't nervous at all. -
I would try a drink at home before the cruise just so you know how it is going to affect you.
-
I have a couple glasses of wine at home once a week and it doesn't affect me any more than it did before.

They have it at my local Kroger and Amazon has it. -
When did you stop?
magtart replied to Amanda Nicole Hosaflook's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I still drink one every few days when I need to get more Protein in. -
went to the ER with chest pains, guess what it was?
magtart replied to birdmadgirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was never told that...good to know. I usually finish eating by 7pm and don't go to bed for at least 2-3 hours after, though.
