Topic: RE: lost
Hi Mary, Congrats on the weight loss. I had my surgery May 28th, 2003 and as of this week I have lost 59-lbs. It is just too exciting. I had lost about 60-lbs. 5 years ago (of course since then I put that plus back on) and think of how hard it was to loose it then...but now MAN!!! I can't complain. I would love it to come off faster, but like everyone says, you didn't put it on in a week, how do you expect to take if ALL off in a week. Keep up the good work and I hope to be right there with you. Take care! Veige

I think that the less amount of weight you have to lose, the slower it goes. Isn't that what we've heard? I'm 5'10" tall and started at 260 (had actually lost 12 pounds pre-surgery -- whoo hoo!!), but I've only lost 49 pounds in 12 weeks. I think probably part of it is not exercising enough (back problem) - but also part is because I didn't have as much to go as some. (Making myself sound like TWIGGY here ... don't mean to do that, cuz the PHAT's a hanging believe me!! *smile*)
Topic: RE: lost
I'm 12 weeks down and only 49 pounds are off. Not complaining TOO loudly - as I'm happy about that loss. I'm not exercising much and that probably has had an adverse affect. However, I've dealt with HORRID back pain since surgery (not sure WHAT they did to me on the table! *smile*). But in the last couple of weeks it seems to be a little better. I've been seeing a chiropractor. But now he doesn't want me doing "much" until my back is a little more stable. So maybe in a couple weeks I can start moving around more.Congrats to you guys though!!

Tara,
You guys are doing so much better at your loss than I am and I must say I am a little envious, but happy for you all also.
I too am 13 wks and I've lost 36 pounds.
But on to your question. I tried alot of protein drinks and only found one tolerable and it is Protidiet I get it from my Dr.'s office. It is concentrate and taste good actually it comes in fruit punch and orange. It cost $10.00 for a box of seven packets. You can only buy from a medical facility, but you can pull up their website and email for a list of Dr.s near you that sale it. The website is www.pro-amino.com If you have trouble getting protein in it is the way to go. I was so thankful to find it.

Hi Tara,
I am 13 weeks out also. I am down 65 lbs. I am not drinking protein drinks anymore, but I have found a good one. I got it from the website of www.wlssuccess.com. They have nectar flavors of caribbean cooler, berry cherry, and apple ecstacy. You can get samples for 1.50. They are smooth and not gritty. Good Luck to you. Lori
Topic: PROTEIN DRINKS!!!
Hi I am 13 weeks out and have lost about 55 pounds. I am very happy and I go to my 3 month check up tomorrow 8/15/03. I am just wondering if anyone has had some good protein drinks that they could give me the names of. I have had the atkins shakes. isopure, and extreme from hi health. Any that do not taste like soy? with that nasty aftertaste? would love to hear from anyone. Also I have not gained any weight but was a stand still a couple weeks ago. I am not stressed. I know it will go eventually. I only want to lose 40 more so i am alost there. good luck to everyone.
