I'm confused about Protein Powder...
knightdoc86 replied to Dreamingofhealth's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
To be completely honest i started actually exercising after month 9. I was focusing this yr on my nutrition routine and now it will be focusing this rest of the yr and next on weight training etc. I wanted to drop as much as possible without gaining from weight training -
Buy 20oz bottled water and take 3 to work, they better be gone by the time i get home and this doesnt include other fluids i come across---im up to 4 bottles of 20oz a day plus 11oz protein shake, milk, juice, or coffee---im almost a yr out so i can drink coffee again.

I have the pics and im glad i have the b4 pics so that i could myself see this change. -

knightdoc86 replied to Dreamingofhealth's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I will be honest, im lazy haha so i dont cook my protein at all. Best i could find that works for me is Pure Protein(comes in 11oz soda can looking container) at Vitamin Shoppe. Essentially its 35 g of protein in just 11 oz, 4g or less of carb depending on flavor, 1g sugar. I just drink this at some point in the day and knock out the protein rather than stress about where to fit a powder. -

Truly don't know what to do
knightdoc86 replied to Jennifer Rogers's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I felt the same way at first because of the ketosis u taste everything different. I also had trouble finding the protein i liked because they are all sweet and i never cared much for sweets always opting for an appetizer or a second helping rather than dessert. All i can say is i too went thru this and it def gets better, i didnt even want to leave the house or go too far for fear of being away from what i could eat and my vitamins and fluids. It all passes and u will be fine. -

28 male dec 2013 sleeve. My most immediate challenge was the food at first tasting different, then finding protein i liked since everything is sweet and id never really cared for sweets. I was always a second helping and appetizer over dessert guy. Going out anywhere i was hesitant because i had to get used to my eating and drinking regimen as well as vitamin intake routine. After i mastered that then when results occurred it was annoying explaining to people my personal life so i dont say what i did, none of their business and they didnt talk to me before and now they wanna be friends and find out my life. My most recent challenge is excess skin, its not a whole lot but its def noticeable. I went from 308 to 165lbs and in 11 months. I have started to do weight training, never done b4 in my life. Overall i dont regret this, with clothes on i look great haha and feel even better. I get compliments now. Ive always had a sex drive i mean im in my 20's but now its outta control, that is a challenge. I cant seem to get enough, im hooking up so much and sometimes more than 3 a day. I guess its fine haha but im always thinking about sex. -
Sleeved a year ago and stopped losing...need advice!
knightdoc86 replied to Kimberlee1383837812's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved dec 2013, 28 male, starting weight was 308lbs now im 165lbs. I have followed my doctors nutritional plan to the last detail. I still havent tried pasta, rice, bread, though i have sampled potatoe and sweet potatoe but only like a month ago. The first 2 weeks i lost 22lbs then nothing for a week. The rest of the weight was lost and by jube i thought i was done because i had another plateau i was 190 188 then. Soon it started again and now im between 165 and 168 for the past month and a half. At 11months i guess im finally done loosing.
