Topic: RE: Surprisingly yummy protein drinks....
My favorite is Crystal Lite Sunrise with EAS Advantage Protein Whey Powder. I do three scoops in a good sized water bottle and drink it all day long. That gives me 60g of protein, if I drink it all, which I usually drink most of it. It's not too sweet and I often mix cranberry juice in with it, too. For me, a lot of the premixed drinks are too sweet or too heavy. But the whey powder just dissolves and with the vanilla flavoring, it's great. If you have a Costco close, they have a huge jar for 19.99 and 1 scoop is 22g of protein. Wal-Mart has the EAS and it's 13.99 and will last about two weeks. Have a wonderful weekend! Susie 235/160 and losing!!!

Congratulations! You are doing so well These past six months have flown by for me, too. I've lost 75 lbs. and only have 35 more to go. I think they won't come off as fast, though! I would do this again in a heartbeat! Susie 235/160

Topic: I posted this on main board but wanted it here too for my Marchers!
I have been feeling down about the amount of weight loss to this point, I have been worried about how much I eat. I have been stressin over the thought of ...is this it, I recieved in the mail my night before surgery picture on computer disc , taken by hospital, I threw it in and Holy Cow, Okay.... I dont know if anyone else is going through those disapointed feelings or putting themselves down for lack of weight loss but I tell you for true my whole attitude has now changed. I am shocked by the lack of light in my eyes, my stomach pushing at my shirt. my big baggy pants! My face ,oh my face ! So puffy and over blown! Please if anyone is feeling down about the above mentioned things please look at your before pics and you will see the difference. I just got too involved in what I havent done to really enjoy what I have done! That picture of me at hospital is not the picture of me now and if I do not lose another pound I am so so much better off than I was! If this can bring one person to truly look at the old you before the 20,30 40,50 or more pound loss and you can actually smile at the difference and enjoy today that would be very exciting!

Topic: RE: Another Hair loss question....
My hair loss has stopped. Never had too much fall out to begin with and just so you guys know, I never took any supplements like biotin and I've never done the protein shake thing either. So it really is different for everyone.. Kerri -101lbs

Topic: RE: I'm Freezing!!!
Hello Angela; I know what you mean about freezing!! My husband sweats alot but I freeze. I asked my doctor about it and he says it is because I have lost my insulation. We just have to wear extra clothes until our bodies adjust to the extreme changes we are going through. Good luck. Melinda Rexroad

Hey Greg! You are looking pretty great yourself! Carlsbad has changed dramatically! It has really grown....there is no space between Oceanside to the north and Encinitas/Leucadia to the south...they all run into each other...most of the new building/housing is to the east...we are in La costa, just east of La Costa resort. we are up the hill about half way...it is beautiful here but getting very crowded...the 5 south is a mess all day long now, not just at rush hour. In the summer with the tourists, it is a nightmare... Keep up the good work! you are doing great! Mikey RN

I did a web search and came up with nothing. Can you post the web address? I am always willing to try new things. Eileen
