I love them all so much and could not have done this without them

Wow you are all doing much more protein that I am... I dont know how you do it. I guess with shakes and such.. Oh God I cant stand them....

Surgery date: Sept 7th Starting Weight: 281 Current weight: 247 Current Deit: soft food Protein per day: between 60 and 80 Water: 60 oz Calories: couldn't tell ya, I don't count them Whats the hardest thing so far: Realizing when I'm full before I get sick... meat does this to me quite a bit, just 2-3 bites and it can get stuck and my body reverses the engines. Between that and the queasiness for the last 3 week... it's been a little frustrating. How do you feel: UNBELIEVABLE! I've been treated by a chiropractor for low back/neck pain, knee and ankle pain for the past 5 years. The lowback pain is gone! My knee/ankle pain is sooo much better. I can workout without having to ice after....walk with no pain, it's amazing! I'll deal with the morning queaziness anyday for this trade off! What is your Favorite Meal: Chili is my fav so far, goes down well, and is tasty! What have your family and friends thought so far: Very supportive, though I'm not handling the attention very well... almost taking the compliments negatively (not that I say that to anyone, I know they're being nice, I just am not dealing with it well).
