Topic: RE: Finding a Friend
Hi Christina! I too had surgery on the 28th. I am a slow looser but that is okay! I have lost 52 pounds so far...haven't weighed in two weeks, so hopefully it is a little more...hehe! I am doing great. Working out three to four times a week and really feel more strong and balanced. I eat about 600-700 calories a day,getting in my protein but still struggle with the fluid. I have to take more iron supplements since my three month labs...but I have always had a low iron level. Had my first dumping episode yesterday due to a smoothie at Smoothie King....high in protein but it came out with a vengence. I guess I should just stick to Unjury from now on! Feel free to contact me! I check my email at least once a day! Traci

Hey Christina! We had surgery the same day! How are you? I feel bad that I havent been online in a week or so, between work and Christmas shopping online, I never have the time. How are you feeling? What are you eating? I still want NOTHING at all...was excited to find protein bars I liked but now they taste sweet to me and I simply dont want them. Im beginning to "shed"....I always have lost hair...I mean days you wear a black shirt its really obvious...lol...its been that way my whole life but it seems to be much more lately....how bout you?

Yeah, I have it, hate it and feel for anyone else with it. I have been using Smooth Move Tea and it does seem to be helping. I get it at GNC and I have seen it in my grocery store. I tried flax seed in yogurt but I kept feeling like I had grit in my teeth. I must be doing ti wrong. Best to you, Annette RNY 8/21/06 270/198/130-ish

My sister is going great. She is shorter than I am 5'1 and started this surery at around 230. Today she is around 130 and a good wt for her height. She stays with the program and watches her carb intake..keeps calories at a reasonable rate. Too much alcohol and snacking is what ruins this surgery for most people. I will be watching the program rules for life, and if you have that mind set you will be fine...Sue.

Topic: RE: almost 4 months out
Hi Jan, I also am almost 4 months out. I get about 500 calories a day and not all of it is pure protein. I have cheese and crackers with a cup of coffee in the AM. I have chicken noodle soup and a sugar free fruit cup and one low fat yogurt for lunch then at home in the evening i try to get in some kind of meat with my meal..I may not be getting 64 oz of protein..but this is all i can eat in one day...I am trying to up my fluids by diluting cranberry juice with water and ice...and sipping on that...you will keep losing I am sure of that..my sister had this surgery 2 yrs ago and(I can see how) you will reach your goal...keep up the good work, Sue.
