Has anyone tried Bowmar protein yet? Is it better with water or almond milk? -

IWantTheDream replied to IWantTheDream's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow congratulations you have done so great. My surgery was on the same day and I have been struggling to loose weight it just doesn’t want to leave. I measure n weigh everything and it still the weight is moving at snail pace. I probably should not complain I am 43 pound down but my hips n back are stain a lot of pain n I really cannot wait for some relief. Great job Jersey! -

I was craving something sweet and chocolate and this was amazing tastes just like a fudge brownie totally in love. I only ate about 4 slices of banana but I ate all the chocolate hummus. Delicious -
Mine was a little indented because of 5he internal stitches but yours is really indented. Hopefully it’s just that all the layers of internal stitches. Good luck

I feel for you . I had something similar a few weeks ago and I was a hungry and my coworkers got my favorite breakfast sandwich’s from my favorite bagel store and it just sucked but I grinned and just worked and real does mess with your emotions. So I’m sorry that happened to you but you got through it and your stronger for it. So great job! 🙂 -

Things I won't miss about being fat!
IWantTheDream replied to ChubRub's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
This sounds like you are being very shady and judgmental and just not nice. I thought that Norwegian’s are raised with the belief that no one person is any better than another. Why are you trying to make someone feel crappy! -

That looks amazing! I had Morning Star Farm chicken patty for lunch and it tasted delicious but yours look amazing I may have to try that. Yum! -
No but it sound horrible. I still have a soreness in my throat on one side that has not gone away since surgery on July 7. It get sore and scratchy when I talk. But yours just sounds dreadful. I hope you feel better soon.

Anyone not into milk products?
IWantTheDream replied to Sandy Milner's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Vega has a berry protein powder. I normally mix with just water but it also works well with oat milk or almond milk. It really good with half banana n some mixed frozen berries. Hope this helps. They also have an almond coconut that’s pretty good also. -

July 2020 Surgery anyone?
IWantTheDream replied to IWantTheDream's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Tomorrow is my one month surgery anniversary and I cannot believe it has gone by so fast . I have to say the first two weeks where not good and I really regretted it. But I still hope I did the right thing. But yesterday I was allowed normal food. So I tried shredded lettuce and thin tomatoe slices with tuna. I was in heaven! I am so glad my stomach still likes lettuce. I think I would have been really sad if I couldn’t have lettuce anymore. Oh I also splurged this morning and had 2 inches of sprouted bread that I toasted from Wegman’s. It was spot on amazing. Hope everyone is feeling great and enjoying there anniversary!🙂 -
July 2020 Surgery anyone?
IWantTheDream replied to IWantTheDream's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was same day n I have been stuck for two full weeks with no loss. I feel like I am failing at this already and I consume 600 or less calories a day . I am right there with you.This is supposed to be a real thing the two week stall but it doesn’t make you feel any better when your scale won’t go in the direction you want it to.very frustrating and disappointing! -

IWantTheDream replied to IWantTheDream's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am right there with you I still have all the cravings for sweet stuff and forbid I say watch diners drive inns and dives I then just want to eat everything. Lol but I max out at 3 oz and I have not given into my craving. -
Wow you look fantastic. Seven years and you look fantastic. I hope I will be as happy as you in seven years. I just had my VSG on July seventh and I have been stalled on weight loss for two weeks. I already feel like I’m failing but everyone said this is a normal stall I guess we will see. Great job you look fantastic.

VSG PostOp Bad Experience
IWantTheDream replied to myspeakgeek's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have the same pinching n burning under one of my incisions and the sensitivity and some numbness my surgeon said it was the internal stitches they use to hold everything together so you don’t get an incision hernia. He said they will eventually dissolve. But they do hurt. -
