I eat Mullers high protein pasta ... that way I can eat pasta and get my protein in.... I can only eat the rottini pasta, and it has to be cooked well... a min or two longer than it says on the box. The other types the mac or the spgh both are hard to digest for me.

Barb, My surgery was 6/11/04. I've lost 60 pounds so far. I'm all over the place with what I eat and when. I eat dinner foods at breakfast and switch it around all the time. First of all, I usually just pour whatever my meal is, into a 1/4 cup just to make sure it's that amount. But let me give you today's menu. Breakfast 1 scrambled egg yolk w/1 slice cheese w/salsa ( I hate egg whites now) Snack: unjury protein shake with water (only 90 calories & 20g protein) Lunch 2 teaspoons salsa, then filled the rest of 1/4 cup with canned red salmon Snack: unjury protein shake with water (only 90 calories & 20g protein) Dinner 2 teaspoons fried rice, filled the rest of the 1/4 cup with bourbon chicken cubes. (I had to wait half an hour after eating because when I ate it, I still thought I was hungry but it went away.) I must have just wanted more because it was good. Hope this helps. Hannah 218/156/110?

Congrats on another pound down! I wish my scales would move, I'm on another two-week plateau it seems. I broke down and bought a digital scale last night, a fairly fancy one that also calculates body fat percentage. My old scale was your basic dial type . . . and depending on where you stood on it, if you leaned forward a bit and put more weight on the balls of your feet, you could get a "lighter" reading, LOL. -BJ

Finally, the scales show I've lost another pound making my grand total 43 pounds since surgery date of June 21. I can tell by my clothes that I am making progress but it sure feels good when the scale confirms it.

Congratulations on your success and may God bless your journey.
