I'm a losser and proud of it! :dance:

G'day all: My surgery was March 1st, 2005 I weighed 315lbs, as of today July 16th I weigh 226lbs. I still have another 70lbs to go, but already am feeling so much better pysically and mentally. I have not been so good with getting my protien daily, so any advise , suggestions etc. would be greatly appreciated. This site was a godsend to me and I am thankful for everyone who takes the time to respond, and to post. Congrat's to everyone else who is losing the pounds ... WAY TO GO PEOPLE..

Hi Megan, we're surgery date twins. Your doing really great! Having a daily schedule that covers my protein, vitamins, food, etc., really helps me. I tend not to get the right amounts when I do not concentrate on my schedule. It always has to be in the back of your mind. Best of luck! I have lost 101 lbs as of last week. I have a ways to go before getting to where you are now, but I know that it will happen. Keep us updated. TraciL

One easy way to get protein is to eat an Odyssey bar. It has 30 grams of protein. You can order them from bariatriceating.com but they are actually cheaper at Walgreen's. It's best to just nibble on one all day as they are pretty dense. Taste good, too.

Wow!! You have come a long way!! You are doing great!! Keep up the good work! Trisha -85 lbs
