Lisalu 89 Posted December 10, 2012 Hi Y'all. 125.2 this morning. I read my post from last week and I'm up about 1/2 pound but not concerned. Bought a fitbit pedometer and getting my 10,000 steps every day. Feeling healhier. Now to deal with those sugar craving--yikes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
june13sleever 223 Posted December 10, 2012 I think I will stay here because I need to make sure I don't eat like I am out of control. I always found an excuse to eat like a big fat pig when I was fat...so pregnancy is not an excuse to eat like I have lost my mind! AND I WANT TO! So I am around week 7 and I am up 2 pounds. My scale is heavier than my doctor's scale...I am 165.5. I was 163.5 for a couple of months and it never moved which was pretty cool because when I was big I could gain 5 pounds in a day!

O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted December 11, 2012 lacking in protein' date=' need a shake I can stomach![/quote'] Best & good tasting are powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury or nectar. A close 2nd in quality but tops in taste & consistancy is Chike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Escape_Pod 358 Posted December 12, 2012 It seems like shakes are very much a matter of personal taste. What kind of flavors do you like / hate? I found early on that the "chocolate" Protein powders really didn't taste like chocolate at all. I start with Unjury chocolate, add a little salt to cut the artificial sweet taste, add a little unsweetened cocoa powder to boost the chocolate flavor, and mix with warm almond milk or Water for a "hot cocoa" effect. You can do variations like mint, almond, and raspberry hot cocoa by adding a little sf Syrup.< /p> If I want something more tart, I'll blend a fruity nectar flavor like cherry or something like Chike banana in with some plain greek yogurt. If I want a coffee flavor, I like the Click mocha protein. If you can't stand the sweet, could you tolerate something like the unjury chicken Soup flavor as a lunch time broth? I think until you find something you like, your best bet is to order from places that will sell you sample sizes. I think Unjury still sells single-serving packets. You can order a variety pack of Nectar from BJs Bariatrics or Vitalady.com. I think Chike will sell single packets too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
