Too many carbs IMHO. A new postie just dumped on one of those on the main board as well. So far my favorite is the caramel peanut one at http://www.i-shophere.biz (my fav place for protein!! They have hot chocolate, soups, cappucino, etc...yummmm!!!) and also the Dexatrim one isn't bad in a pinch...the numbers (cal, fat, protein and carbs) are the best I've seen in store-bought protein bars anyway.

Great Job !!!!! I too just passed by 6 month anniversary. I am wearing size 14 jeans, but I have to wear a belt to keep them up. It does feel so wonderful. I went shopping over the weekend and was giddy when I started trying on misses XL shirts and my husband said that is way to big, I ended up buying a L. It is a wonderful feeling. I am happy for you. The whole adventure since WLS is soo worth it. Not saying that all of us have not had bad days. But I think everyone of us would do it again. Heather 4-11-05 291-196-?

Ruts are always bad. Rut in diet leads to rut in weight loss. I try to vary my diet everyday. Except for my salad. I love salad, but I only eat it if I have already eaten my protein for the day. This has been a great incentive for me to eat my protein. I am really bad about getting in my 60-80 of protein. Luckily, my hair had not fallen out yet and I have just made it to my 6 month mark having lost 95 pounds. Heather 4-11-05 291-196-?

Congrats!!!!! People who have not had a weight problem all their life do not understand the things we get excited about. A couple of months ago we went to a local carnival and my 6 year old daughter wanted me to ride rides with her. I told her that I could not fit on the rides and that I was sorry. She told me that I could because now I was not fat and to PLEASE try. So I did try for her (I thought what is one more embarassing moment), but to my suprise not only did I fit, I had extra room. We rode every ride there. Heather 4-11-05 291-196-?
