Hi everyone, I'm Jaylin (32 yoa) from Texas and I'm new to the forum. I had surgery on 12/22/12 with my original weight being 445 and nearly three months (tomorrow) in I am down 66 pnds. I just recently broke the 380 mark I'd been stuck at (fluxing from 381 - 384) for two weeks. I was sick the week before spring break and out of town the week of which set my gym time back quite a bit. I joined LA fitness once my major recovery was done and I typically work out (swimming and water aerobics) 4-5 days a week with a lot of walking on the weekends. It's a great excuse to head to the mall! Since surgery I'm no longer a type two diabetic and have had normal (though often low at times) bgls since two weeks post surgery. I think my biggest stumbling block is the ability to get enough protein even drinking my protein juice, because meat and most of the time cheese (other than queso which i know is not a healthy choice) just won't go down or stay there anyhow. I try beans and love yogurt but I have definate food texture issues that aren't helping. Just wanting to post and say hi and get a feel for the group. Hope you are enjoing your journeys!
