Beautiful work!

Yep I agree with @@Chele H Atkins is good and drink lots of water...lots!

34 lb gone beats the heck out of 34lbs gained! So I say success!

That's fabulous! You should be so proud!

@@sarahkaj Well now that's not very positive! It sounds like your giving up and that's not allowed! ; ) Are you tracking your food? Drinking enough water? Exercising? Eating Protein and waiting the 30 mins before and after? Most of all have you discussed this with your surgery team? If so what did they say? Are your clothes getting lose? Are you working out and putting on muscle weight? Don't give up, reevaluate what your doing...on a honest level! Maybe there's something you can change?

Awesome!

Protein, water and vitamins are your best friend. I'm just assuming your on liquids?? Maybe? You didn't say what food stage your on.

Your moving up! Yay!

That's awesome congratulations!

Well congratulations! Your early Christmas present.

I'm a little further out than you and on "regular" foods but I get around 700 calories max right now. Almost Half of which comes from my 2 protein drinks a day. For breakfast I had 1 egg and 1/4 cup of crumbled turkey sausage.I'm big on lean meats and fancy cheeses right now...I had 2 oz of low sodium turkey and 1 1/2 oz of a variety of cheeses for lunch. That's all I can eat at once. Dinner will probably be a lean meat and a boiled egg (mainly the white) Then my second protein drink later on.....well anyway there's an idea of a day of eating food with shakes. All that adds up to the 700 (usually less) calories and maybe 11 carbs. Just an example, you will be there soon. I wouldn't try to live on just yogurt and shakes though...you will need to start learning the right foods to eat. Good luck!

Sounds like your making good progress!

I eat nuts!!..yep there's no other way of saying that, that doesn't sound dirty... I Eat the ones in the P3 protein packs anyways.

@@heynowkc Lol I was gonna say wow you really want to get in that pool!!!! I would say probably at least a couple weeks, you want all your incisions to be completely healed shut!

Sweet!

@@Eharmon5 Perfect!

Yes, blow up his phone!! But not in a "crazy" way.

See it's all for money! I have defiantly met some people who had the surgery and were like, seriously? Your crazy a** passed the psych eval?! Ok I'm good! ; )- And I'm not even really crazy,.....it's documented! Ha! It is fun to throw that up at the husband every once in awhile! Best part of the whole hoopla!

That sounds like a winner!

Well if he had questions why didn't he just ask them then?!

Oh and a 25 question test about "inappropriate prescription drug use" stupidest test ever!! First question was something like why do you use Prescription drug?, Me umm I don't. Next question" what does your family think about your drug use" me...ummm I don't use drugs!" Why did you start abusing drugs"...me Ok we are done here A-hole! How can I answer A 25 question test on the drug abuse I DONT DO?! I wrote that on the paper and gave it back to them...ignorant...and it made me want To take a sedative! lol!

Oh! Well.....Chinese is hard! It's my favorite BUT the good stuff is always fried, or full of sugar! The only other thing I can think of is we have chicken on a stick...marinaded chicken...on a stick lol! Or Moogoogiapan? Oh or a seafood dish!

Yep mine was a 1+ hr appointment 20 min talk, 1 hr paper "test" blah blah blah! I guess I hid my crazy quite well because I was approved! I was going to be worried for you until you said your friend had to go twice...odd, it's probably all about the money!

I ate the egg drop soup, hot-n-sour soup and chicken veg soup....so I'd say soup! : ) if you want actual food maybe a small serving of beef and broccoli?

@@ngoycoanaya that sounds like a good plan!
