That's my problem to sometimes, I try to eat slow but I only get 30 mins for lunch. So I cant really take my time. Bout to head out to Doc apt. Will be the first time in 2 weeks Ive stepped on a scale and not really looking forward to it. I feel like I have lost nothing. I actually feel like they may tell me Ive gained.

I had that issue for the first 6 or so weeks. I had to make myself take very small sips and a lot of people on here say cold Water didn't work for them but mine had to be almost frozen for me to be able to drink it without it being painful. smoothies helped me for a couple of weeks the thickness and cold felt really good going down and didn't make me sick.

Yeah, he is. And I told him I got the surgery and the rules and he seemed to really listen its just..... hello Im eating don't look at me and Don't talk to me. lol.

I ACTUALLY GET SICK IF I TRY TO DRINK WATER WHILE EATING EVEN IF IT IS JUST A SIP.

i will have to try that. You know it is weird and so much has changed in just 2 months. i am down right at 40 pounds but i cant see it at all. And i get in my head sometimes. Its like if Im still gonna be fat why cant I have that beer or coke or even Water. And yes I know... it takes time and 40 pounds is a lot and blah blah blah. But i still get i my own head. Dang me. lol. i have yet to decide if I am happy with my choice to have the surgery. I have been through a lot with this these last 2 months so if the clock were to turn back right this second and i could remember this i would not do it again. But i know in a couple months I will have forgot and all the pain and the sickness and be skinny (or closer to) and be like heck yeah sign me up.

Thanks, I am 2 months out now and that's my biggest thing. I do normally get Water but this place only has bottles and charges you 2.50 for it. And its purified and I don't like that so not like I would have even saved for later. This guy wasn't even a waiter or someone who should be paying attention to things. He was a guy at the table next to me. I realllllllllllllllly want some soda!!!

I wasnt snacking cause I felt like that means im eating to much but I was told I needed t snack throughout the day because im not getting enough of what I need. (I can only take 2 bites at a time)

crab meat sticks and I love babybel cheese but it is dairy.

I did the same thing 2 weeks after my surgery. I decided I would only weigh in when I go to the doctor other than that my weight is none of my business right now.

I had mine out last week. My doctor did tell me the weight loss would slow down but just because I was losing so fast because my gallbladder was making me so sick.

GNC has a blue raspberry one that sounds good so im gonna try it after work. I have let the green apple sit in ice and melt a little so its cold and watered down it makes it a little more drinkable. oh yeah, they are 5 dollars a bottle.

yeah just talked to the my nutritionist and she said the same thing. I found another store that has more flavs of the isopure and also something called cocotein that I may try.

Welp just got the green apple isopure. Hmm. Its very sour. The guy said they would have different flavors monday. This one is drinkable and so far has not made me sick

The powders no matter how much water or milk I add seem to be to thick and come right back up. Green apple is the only choice I hav. I actually do not like green apple and would love to find grape.

No thats the first ive heard of them. Just called a healthfood store where I live and they have green apple. I will go try one for lunch. Hopefully ill be able to drink it. Thanks.

Yeah I have. They just tell me to keep doing what im doing (eggs, yogurt) ive seen on here protein shots and I think ill try them. Know anything about their taste?

I had the same issues. Sleeping with a body pillow under my stomach helped me.

I have United Healthcare also, my out of pocket for the surgery was my out of pocket max (3000). I had a lot of problems getting United to pay for the surgery. They wanted a 6 month diet (which they said I did not have to do at first) then the auth had to be in the system for 6 more months before I could have the surgery.
