Thank you. I feel great! I hit the gym 6 days a week. A lot of hard work but feeling this good is worth it.

Congrats on your weight loss too. You should be proud as well. Keep at it. More will come off! :)

I keep trying the shakes but they seem to sweet tasting. I hold my nose and drink the Protein Shots. Lol I did start my Fluid meds again and I have been going to the restroom every 20min. Got to weigh in the morning so I will keep everyone posted. Thanks so much for the support.

Wondering if anyone else has become sensitive to milk products since having the RNY? I've become quite sinus-y with it, I used to react this way with wheat, but haven't eaten wheat now for several years. I'm just very curious? I tend to use cheese, or evaporated milk etc. in each meal, so it's becoming a bit of a hassle.

wanted to check in with everyone, went back to work full time school full time, dealing with medical.issues, and trying to make this work is really hard, so not much time to log in multiple sites, but I'm so glad you guys are successful, losing weight and still helping each other I do mfp more though I have decided that I am cutting some people out because instead of asking why I do certain things or actually reading my journal correctly they rather "make up their own ideas" which is a shame we each have our own journey own fight man I struggle for every freaking pound my situation to begin with was diffrent and I think thats why people stop logging in, its easier to just stop logging in than to just say hey maybe thats not correct? I hope you all have a wonderful blessed day, whatever your journey is may you find the guidance your looking for, much peace and love , happy loosing

Have you tried Syntrax Nectar? I've tried the fuzzy navel and the Roadside Lemonade. I find the roadside lemonade a little sweet. I'll add 1 pkg of Crystal Light to it to make it taste better. Love the fuzzy navel though.

I also had the Protein issue and couldn't stand shakes. I tried the Syntrax Nectar the others are talking about in the fuzzy navel flavor. I mix it with 4oz Water, tastes like slightly watered down Sunny D to me. :)

Ok has anyone at all had chest pains? Mostly like shooting pains in your breast. I dont know if its a heart thing or i have strained something or what. But its right in my boobs mostly the left one. Through nipple to back. Been off and on for a week. Started when i was playing my Wii. I rest its there no problems when i sleep then when i wake up there again. Anyone have problems like this? Doesnt hurt to breathe. Or take deep breaths.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
