    I thought about trying them as well. Maybe I will pass.

    What ya eating tonight?

    I also bought the Yoplait Greek. Mine was banana cream pie, it was very tasty and didn't have a ton of sugar like most

    It's called Protein Track. It has a red background with a man showing muscles. I wish it had a scanner for food, but it does let you create a food so you can add anything you can't find. I am 2 and a half weeks out. I started food on Monday. So far everything is going well. I am not really good at guessing if I am full or not. I just stick to weighing everything.

    Just an FYI- I found an App for counting my protein. It cost $3.99, but so far its worth it for me.

    I am the exact say way. I am two weeks out and lost about 18 as well. I have hit a stall. I try not to get on the scale, but it just screams at me to get on and check. I have been at the same weight since Friday. It is so frustrating! I know in my head that I shouldn't worry that it will come off, but I feel like the little girl on the Willy Wonka and Chocolate factory..... "I want it all and I want it now!!!!"

    Soda yes? No?

    The carbonation can stretch your pouch. Be very careful drinking soda.
  9. I believe all RNY patients take Prilosec after surgery. My doctor says we may be able to stop them after 1 year.

    I am so happy to be on the other side! I hope you do well at work this week.

    Yogurt is semi liquid. It doesn't fill you up as much as things like chicken.

    I think fluids are much different than real food. I could also get in lots more liquid, but could only eat half an egg tonight for my first meal.

    I can have potatoes, but I must get in the Protein first. My NUT told me that I would most likely not get to a second item on the menu for a few weeks.

    I had my first real food today! A scrambled egg with laughing cow cheese. It was delicious! I was so disappointed that I could only hold down half of it.

    Great idea! I hope that I can adjust to not jumping on the scale everyday. I think it is a bad habit I got into to make sure I wasn't gaining during the time before surgery.

    Thanks for the encouragement! I haven't walked as much as I should yet, so maybe that is part of it. I also need to move the scale or force myself not to get on it everyday. It's just so hard when you hear that others are losing so much more than you are since surgery. Thanks again.
