Mel3620 299 Posted July 14, 2013 Weighed this morning and I'm down 32lbs total and 19 lbs since surgery. Not sure if this is average but loosing 3/4 of a pound a day since surgery is good to me!! Sounds good to me! I am at 34 pounds loss and I am 5 weeks out. 1 purplecarnation reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weight Warrior 445 Posted July 14, 2013 Thanks for the ideas. I do have the unflavored Protein powder. I have added it to a few things I think it's a mental thing, but I have a difficult time drinking it. I saw the G3, and I wondered if it were too many carbs. I will give it a try. As far as shakes, I am trying to finish the GNC lean shakes that I have before purchasing more. I am sick of them, due to the sweetness. I am sure I will get there! It just may take some time. . To many carbs for one sitting , but i spread mine over the entire work day, it is 2 servings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lessoflittlebit 8 Posted July 14, 2013 I'm three weeks out tomorrow. food goes down great - no trouble at all except one time when I ate Pop chips like an idiot. Won't be doing that ever again. I'm on regular food. My issue is liquids. I drank tons of Water and Protein shakes and Crystal Light before surgery, and now the only liquid that goes down without nausea is tea. I'm really disappointed that the shakes are making me nauseous. I also struggle when I take my meds. Anyone else having issues with liquids and not food?
