Aline728 301 Posted July 19, 2013 So is anyone else having relationship issues? Today I had a meeting at work. I get dressed up and do my hair and make up' date=' like every day. I had to drop something off to my husband at his work and he said you look so good. I said thank you and he continued to complement me. I said thanks again and he said who let you out the house looking that good. I just rolled my eyes because he says that all the time. I tell him I had to go and kiss him good bye. I start to drive away and he acts like he is throwing a fishing line and reeling it back in. I look at him and I say what are you doing? He said your going fishing and I got mad. I told him that he is nuts. His insecurity from his prior relationship is rearing its ugly head. I have been a faithful wife for 22 years. I lost weight get a grip. I am still the same person just in smaller clothes. Really, I still weigh 250 lbs. What is going to happen when I get smaller? Anyone out there dealing with this please let me know.[/quote'] I kinda notice a difference with my guy as well. But he doing the distances game, i see his face when others comment on my weigh loss, he stares at me when he think im not looking..he like what he see but he worried that others see it to is what im thinking....well thats on him, im not going to hold his hand this was discussed over and over b4 surgery, so its no surprise, im lossing but im still me...but a better healthy me, who now thats take care of my needs finally....

Lirpa 10 Posted July 19, 2013 Wow amazing I too was sleeved on 6/24 I'm having an issue with some food I have not been on a scale either I can see I'm losing inches but I'm having issues finding food any suggestions? I went to my hospital support group and someone told me about putting Protein Powder into sf pudding. It's good and its really increased my Protein total. I was sleeved 6/25/13 and wasn't losing like I thought I should be and since I increased my protein I've started losing 1 mytime2shine reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! I am having trouble getting my protein in too, the shakes are horrible. They were ok the first two weeks but I am so over them. I didn't have to do a preop Protein Shake diet but I can't imagine having had to do that then afterwards too! I orders some nectar and I'm gonna try that and hope I like it! 1 Aline728 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SheWins1 207 Posted July 20, 2013 Yes want to know also. How much Protein powder in the Sf pudding and how often i do this When I did the sf pudding, I put one scoop of the protein powder in. One scoop is only 10 grams of protein. I guess I could had put more, but was a fraid of tasting the powder. I can't stand the smell of it. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa O 52 Posted July 20, 2013 Yes want to know also. How much Protein Powder in the Sf pudding and how often i do this Hi! If I'm having just an ounce if Greek yogurt I throw in just a tsp. Of unflavored Protein powder. Same with cottage cheese and other things like that. It doesn't add a ton of protein each time but during a whole day it helps me get my protein in. I don't like gritty....so for me I just started out with a half tsp....saw it wasn't bad...then added another half....I actually like the Isopure unflavored protein powder. Many do not...but I mix mine with skim milk. And add an once of toscana sf syrups to give it a different flavor each time.....I try to start my day with the shake and it normally takes me till lunch to drink the 12 oz. But that gets me my first 60 in for protein...then for lunch I have Greek yogurt...that has 13 grams of protein per 5 oz, plus I add the protein powder that (for 5 oz I usually put a tsp per oz). So that gets me a little more protein....then for dinner usually chicken....and safe my sf pudding for my dessert, but still add a tsp per oz of protein to that too. It becomes a game with me....how can I sneak my protein in with this? I am having a hard time with liquids...working so hard on the protein...always full....gotta wait to drink.....a vicious cycle! I was sleeved on June 24th and down 23 pounds. My Dr told me I most likely will not lose much between weeks 3 and 6 because thus is about the time body says hey wait....is this just another diet or is she really making good choices? We've treated our bodies to so many yoyo eating habits....doesn't know the stomach is not the same etc.... I thought that was a great way to put it! Sorry for the book! 3 Nursebarbie, navyma and Aline728 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brandnew 72 Posted July 28, 2013 So far I can comfortably eat soft scrambled eggs/egg whites, cottage cheese, dark meat chicken or chicken salad, meatballs...but my problem is I'm still not getting enough Protein in... I'm just not hungry and honestly I think I'm afraid of eating more and gaining my pre surgery appetite back. What are you eating? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
