Got all my protein in today



Recommended Posts

And I feel full and satisfied. I had guacamole as well for lunch hopefully the good fats will keep my hair in place!. 22 days 17 pounds in a bit of a stall now but I've not had more than 500 calories in 23 days I'm sure I'll snap out of it soon.

good job! I drink premier Protein in chocolate or strawberry. it has 30gms of Protein per drink and doesn't taste bad. I get it at sam's. I read that if you keep you daily protein up to 70 or so gms that it will help in the prevention of hair loss around the 6month or 9 month. I drink one for Breakfast with my meds and the other at night. Best of health on your journey!

I do watch my calories and I keep a journal. I typically find just a few things that I like and eat them over and over. I read all the labels when I buy something. At 9 weeks out i'm probably getting around 800 calories a day. My day usually looks like this: morning I have premier Protein with my meds (160 cal). at snack time I have a light yogurt (90 cal) at lunch I'll eat my lettuce wraps or something similar (2 leaves at mix 160 cal) snack is another yogurt or blueberries as light cool whip (90 cal) and then for dinner maybe 3tbl of refried Beans with cheese and 4-5 scoop chips (maybe 100 cal) then at night I have another Protein Drink with meds. (160 cal) (approx 760/day) sometimes I might snack on things like edamame or wasabi peas but I usually stick to the same diet. Only change is if I go over to my mother's....then i'll eat something different but it's usually only a few bites. She made cabbage rolls the other night and my eyes were bigger than my stomach lol I took 2 small ones and could still only eat 1. It's been an interesting journey so far. take care

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
