    I am getting between 800-1000 a day. Usually have protein shake for breakfast and then string cheese for snack, been eating the P3 by Oscar Meyers a lot, then a Syntrax lemon tea protein drink in afternoon. BUT in between I've been snacking on the small slim jims. I NEVER liked them before but now I can't get enough. Although they have good amount of protein the fat and calories add up.

    I'm nervous about hungry I've been lately. I'll have a protein shake for breakfast and need more to go with that now. Wasn't like that earlier on. Curious if anyone is experiencing greater hunger, slower weight loss
  5. You look so good!! You can be proud of yourself!! That is awesome!!! Go girl!

  8. Ladies and gentleman, If you like cinnamon buns than you just try Bariatric Fusions Cinnamon Bun proven shake!!! (http://bariatricfusion.com/meal-replacement-single-serving-packet-cinnamon-bun.html). I can't believe how good it is!! My only concern is that I haven't found it in a tub yet, only single serve packages. The hunt continues!!

    Yes, my hair has started falling out. I read it would happen but now that it is I'm freaking out just a little. I have thick hair and am starting to feel and see the difference.

    I saw my dr on Friday for a 3 month check up. I've lost 42 lbs. I have 40 to go. I told him I was slowing down on loss and he gave me a sweet smile and said "Really? So 42 lbs in 12 weeks just isn't fast enough!?" He's right when we all step back and think about life before the sleeve. A pound a week is STILL better than before my surgery! Am I still looking at lower numbers on the scale? Heck yeah!!! Please don't get discouraged. One day you'll wake up and all the extra work will have paid off and you're going to dance around and celebrate till those too lose of pants fall right off your skinny hips!!! Here's wishing you continued success and much happiness!!!!

    11 weeks today and 40 lbs gone. BUT today I have eaten NON-STOP!!! Like I've had the munchies. It isn't my time of the month or anything. I haven't eaten "bad" stuff. Protein shake, jerky, chicken, black beans, tuna, pistachios....anyone else experience this????
  12. My stall started April 19th and I weighed every day for 5 days and watched it bounce back and forth between one pound. Then I didn't get on the scale again because all the irritation was building up and making me want to eat unhealthy. Today I decided was the day to see if the stall was over. Imagine my happy surprise to see 5 lbs gone!!! What a great relief!! I love how my stupid fat brain said "only 5 lbs in 3 weeks, jeez that's not much!".....hello that's better than no pounds or gaining like I used too! Losing fast the first 6 weeks put me in a mode that that was going to just keep up. It's not. That's okay. I'm still healthier. I cannot believe how fast I went up stairs yesterday along with so many other non scale victories! If my final goal weight is still a year away SO BE IT!! I'm doing this and I'm thrilled. Oh and the best part is with those 5 lbs gone I reached goal #2......40 lbs of me is missing!!! Look for it on milk cartons across the nation!!!! Haha Don't let the stall beat you up. You are all doing amazing!!!!
