Yes, I lost 16 lbs during my 2 week pre-op diet. I think that's why I don't understand why I'm not losing more now. I don't use Peanut Butter in my Protein Shakes. I use 6 oz. of soy milk, 1/2 teaspoon of General Foods International coffee, sugar free/decaf and two scoops of EAS vanilla Protein Powder. It really is not bad. It tastes almost like iced coffee.

My doctor had me on Clear Liquids for the first 4 days, and then to full liquids.< /p>

I think I'll do as you suggested. I'll call the doctor's office on Monday. I just don't want to be a nuisance. I know some people call the doctor's office everytime they sneeze.

Thanks for the support. Sometimes just venting helps.

ok... see!! 16lbs!! you will never see those pounds again...unless of course you start downing the milkshakes and what not... think about this.... you would have already gained back 10 of those 16lbs in this last week had you not gotten this band!!.... you are fine... !!! you are not failing... !!!

i drink the EAS ready made shakes and to tell you the truth... i f-ing hate them... i hate all liquids right now... hahaha..... i hate my unjury... i hate it all... (though i prefer my Unjury just because i can get in 70g of Protein in 2.5 drinks... rather than choking down 4-5 EAS ready made drinks)... i cant wait for fish!! ive been singing a song all day about crab legs... because they are only 8 days away... hahahahaha

Crab legs are my FAVORITE. I am so glad that there are so many people like you out there. I'm feeling better already.

I use the EAS powder that has 27 grams of Protein in two scoops. I use the vanilla so that if I want to I can add some flavoring. I really like the General Mills International, Swiss Mocha. It is sugar free and decaff. I only use 1 teaspoon, but it is enough to get the shake some flavor.

Thanks for listening.

Too bad you are so far away, or we could go get some crab legs when we can eat them. My father was from Columbus Ohio but I don't know many of my relatives up there. My father was not close to them, so we never really met them.

Oh well, I'll think of you when I eat my first crab legs.
