Hi Jer-Z Girl,

It will get better by the 3rd day. Hold On! I've switched over to the Bariatric Advantage Protein shakes and I must say they are MUCH better than the Premier Protein Shakes I got from costco. When I say 'Better', I mean in keeping me satisfied. I made the Bariatric Advantage shakes with my Magic Bullet and the portable shaker and they were great either way. I have a shake or Bariatric Advantage pre-packaged snack every 2-3 hrs along with plenty of Water, and I am good. My surgeon recommended 80oz of Water per day, but I'm targeting 96 oz (3 32oz bottles) per day.

Hang in there - You can do it!

Oh dear!!! Have you tried drinking the muscle milk? its got the same thing as the bariatric Protein Drinks but taste 100x's better!!! My only advice is to constantly remind yourself why you are doing this. it will pass but no doubt is it the hardest thing to do. I can assure you, it is SO worth it. Good luck

Thank you all for your advise. I will keep moving along as planned. To keep myself motivated, I go to the "Before and After" pictures so I can become inspired again.

Another thing I did was measurements.. I took them all over writing them down. So far I've lost 22 1/2 inches from all over my body- I didn't notice weight dropping but the numbers do not lie! Also, my nut said I could have egg drop Soup strained yummo :) ask your nut for advice.. Mine also said add in an extra Protein if needed. Hubby mixes powered whey with ice n a little Water it taste like a shake :) ps 1 to 2 pounds a day rolling off and I'm going in for surgery on 3/27 so close

Great job!! Popsicle brand has a sugar free tropical that's out of this world when it comes to flavor! Also Powerade zero- for that "other" taste u crave

Woo Hoo! I got on the scale this morning and I am 10lbs down. Still not happy not chewing but happy about the weight loss. I guess I will eat another popsicle. Thanks everyone.

Ok how many grams of Protein is it in the Bariatric Advantage? I brought the Premier ones from Sam's Club. I'll have to try those.
