That's awesome. How do you feel?

How much weight have you lost since surgery?

The way I lost the last little bit was 2 protein shakes and dinner and s good cardio workout 2-3 tines a week.

Which surgery are you getting? I am willing to help you where I can. I enjoy watching others through this awesome journey!

I have mentored several people since surgery though.

Not currently. ????

Yes ma'am. I can only eat about 1 cup of food at a time and I am stuffed.

Peeps not perps. lol

Years down the road and in small portions. Just remember food addiction is a real very hard thing to overcome, but with the tool you are about to receive you can do it!!! Several months after my surgery I couldn't figure out why I still wanted food when I wasn't hungry and if I ate it I got so sick. So I was looking up YouTube videos of other WLS perps and I watched one that put it all into perspective. She said a food addiction is the worst of all addictions if you think about it. A drug addict simply avoids the people and places their drug of choice is. Same for an alcoholic. A food addict has to eat to live. It was an ahh haa moment as well as a duh moment for me. Once I had the mindset I was eating 3 tiny meals a day my Protein and Water just to live and for no other reason I was the most successful. When you start thinking about food find a good distraction like walking for 5 minutes and drinking a bottle of water.

You have the right mind set!! As long as you know some days will be harder than others your on the right track!! Thank you. She is now 2 1/2. Life has been crazy but I'm focused on dropping my regain. 10 of the 30 is already gone!!!

As long as you can tolerate it. I don't see any problem going all PS.

The pre diet is the hardest. I bought the same things for post and pre. Is it your all liquid pre diet? My surgeon had me on a two phase pre diet. I've noticed not all do. The best advice I got was buy small portions of Protein because your taste will more than likely change.

Try almond milk or lactade. Something for lactose intolerance. It made a big difference for me.

The bigger friend system you have the better! I'm here if you need anything. I am 5 1/2 years out!!!

What are you mixing it with? I am lactose intolerant still. 5 1/2 years out. I use almond milk and it makes a big difference.
