I'm 2 mos out' date=' sleeved 9/3 and I've lost 59lbs. My favorite Protein Powder is not chocolate or vanilla but Syntrax Fuzzy Navel. I drink it everyday. Still looking for a good vanilla powder and I don't like pure Protein Shakes. I heard if you make your shakes the might before and keep them in the fridge overnight they aren't so gritty.[/quote']

What do you mix the fuzzy navel with?

Ok, I'm officially discouraged!! I don't weigh, but every other week and only down 20 pounds since surgery on 9/25 and can't even tell a difference in my clothes yet! Ok sorry, my rant is over now! LOL Glad everyone is doing great & not had any major complications after surgery!!

[LoryLosesXS 154]

Ok so I ate two pintos and cheese from Taco Bell. I should have only ate 1 1/2 Crazy how little I can eat. I used to pound down 6 tacos easy. Lol

I feel your frustration. U was sleeved on 9/24 and am only down 25lbs. The past ten days I've doubled my steps, been religious on eating, and have only dropped a pound in ten days. I know to expect stalls, but actually not getting frustrated is hard.

You mix it with Water

I'm officially no longer in a stall and lost an extra 5 lbs in just a few days! Wohoo! :-) Hope I keep losing...

I've been trying to post since yesterday. Ok I had to download this new bariatric app. I found out yesterday at my 6 week check up that I have titanium staples in my stomach. I was asking about leaks and how long until the threat is gone, and all I heard was permanent staples! My jaw hit the floor....I dont know how to feel about the new information I received. With all the questions I ask, how could I have not asked that! I was under the impression that dissolvable stitches would be used. He said mri and airport security won't be a problem. Im thinking about all the what if's. What if one comes loose and puncture a hole in my kidneys or tear my intestines? :/

I wish mine loss was faster too BUT .... Slow wins the race and teaches life changes and to stay the course!!!

[Sheena Brooke Whitworth 14]

Jeeez today is the first day I've been able to get logged in, since the change! Hope everyone is still doing great! I'm still in a stall I'm getting more than enough Protein in between shakes and meals, just having a major issue gettng my Water in and I can tell I'm starting to get dehydrated. I carry my water with me everywhere I go, just having an issue making myself drink it and its frustrating because i have a feeling thats what is holding me in this stall! Anyone have any suggestions on making it easier to get fluids in when you have to force yourself to drink??

[ImLooznit 171]

Sheena, try adding flavors to your Water, you can also drink tea, coffee..... G2. I am at 2.5 years and I STILL have to make myself push the liquids. I had a hard time logging in also and had to write for HELP!...

You are going to have stalls, may as well get ready for it, its going to happen, measure, try on your old clothes, you will lose, but the numbers just will not show it, the inches WILL. Congrat to you on your journey, you will LOVE the outcome! Ü
