I made Zucchini Lasagna tonight. It was great and no pasta! I layered strips of zucchini instead of the noodles. Everything else can be your usual lasagna recipe. Yum Yum

My doc requires 800-1000 calories/day and 80-100g of protein/day. I lose about 2-3 pounds a week which is what he said they want to see. I am currently at 41 pounds lost. Feeling great. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 271.2 GW 180 (for now)

Lost 6 pounds this week! Yay! SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 271.2 GW 180 (for now)

Pink Grapefruit nectar was the least Protein aftertaste to me! But like everyone else, I mix and refrigerate. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

I have a black lab that is my baby. Her name is Sophie and when she knows I don't feel good, she lays her head in my lap. Sooo stinkin' sweet. Now if my husband only had that kind of sympathy LOL. SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

I wanted to share my news. I went to the Doctor today for my 2 month check up. Since my last visit, I have lost 14.5 pounds of pure fat. I gained a half a pound of muscle! Whoop whoop! My Doc said, "well you are done, cause I have nothing to fuss at you for! Whatever you are doing keep doing it!" I am on cloud 9. Down 32 pounds total! And bought the cutest Easter dress two sizes smaller! SW 311, SD 1/24/13, CW 277.5, GW 180 (for now)

Anyone try Supreme Protein Bars? I had them before GB and really prefer the taste of them, but I noticed that they have a high amount of sugar alcohol. I don't want to "dump", so checking to see if anyone has had a problem with them.

I am using Syntax Nectar for protein. It is a change from shakes and it helps with my fluid intake. 1 1/2 scoop in 20 oz. water, 39.5 grams of protein. My hardest time is breakfast. Scrambled eggs got old quick!

I have had 3 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts in my house this week. I haven't eaten any, but girl I know how hard it is to say NO. Don't beat yourself up, and it is good that you aired it out. Next time think "Are these cookies worth sabotaging everything I have achieved for myself". Hang in there, we all stumble!

Hello Everyone. I have been reading through the posts and I wanted to join in. My surgery date was 1/24/13. My starting weight was 311 and Day of surgery was 308.5 (that darn colon cleanse). Today I am 282. Loving the choice I made and look forward to getting to know some of you. You seem to be a very supportive and uplifting crowd.

I switched to Lean Shake from GNC. Vanilla is very good, may be a little sweet for some people, but I like it. I also use Syntax Nectar Pink Grapefruit. Love it, no protein taste and change up from water.

Congrats! You will LOVE him. Suzanne his PA is awesome too!

Dr. Kenneth Mitchell did mine, he is great too!

I FINALLY after much taste testing found one I like! Syntax Nectar makes Pink Grapefuit. I mix 1 1/2 scoops in 20 oz. of water. I find it to be the best yet! And there are a lot of very disgusting ones

I am in Charleston. Actually I work in Charleston, live in Moncks Corner. Who is your surgeon?

Awesome, going to try very soon
