for more Protein try nutritional yeast. it has something like 8g in 2tsp. its tastes great and you sprinkle it on things' date=' so the Proteins add up that way over the day.[/quote']

Have you been watching DR Oz? I saw that on his show and will have to research it. Ty for suggestion.

i dont watch Dr. Oz or any show like that. i dont agree with a lot they say (just my personal feeling and they promote things that the sponsors pay them to say)

i took a 12 week class on healthy eating and that was one suggestion they gave us. it tastes like chick bouillon a little so you can add it to any and everything you want.

Yeah I watch him sometimes and I agree with you. Usually it is background noise but he did talk about it just the other day and since you mentioned it I will check it out for sure

It's unfortunate the Quest bar caused cravings and head hunger for you....I tried my first one this morning, I had the coconut cashew and I really liked it...hope you find an alternative :)

yes do check out the nutritional yeast and let me know what you think. i luckily dont have any food restrictions at all, so i can eat what i want that way. i loveth larabar's though they are my new favorite. they only have 9g Protein but are so healthy and good for you.

I like nature valley Protein bars. They have 190 calories and 10grams of protein. They do taste good. I use them when I have a sweet craving...better than eating a candy bar but am definitely looking for a lower calorie choice that doesn't taste horrible.

I have those too. My mom gave to me, but I am not willing to spend my calories on that. I just went to gym after lunch and was the best I have felt yet. Think I will continue to eat food. When I need sweet I eat dark chocolate or I keep a mix of sprouted or raw nuts and seeds mixed with a little dried fruits.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
