re:nutritionist visit

I saw my nutritionist today. I'm officially down 40lbs since my surgery date(10-18-05). She said that when we see her 3 weeks after surgery that a 20-30lb w8 loss is what to expect. She said I was doing great. I gave her a great website for anyone who has to buy chewable vitamins. I buy mine from the site. The site is www.luckyvitamins.com. Type in chewable mutiple vitamins. I buy the Country Life 60 wafers. They taste like pineapple and cost about $8.79. I still have to do my 2 oz of protein and nothing except liquids 5x's a day for 3 more weeks, then about 12/4/05 I can do stage 4 adding 3 starches, 2 fruit, 2 veggies, 1 milk, 6 meats and 1/2 serving of fat. I don't think I will be able to eat all of this everyday. I still can't do all 5 proteins and all the liquids, but I try. I get so full so quick. I never thought I'd hear those words coming out of my mouth (I get full easy). Hope everyone is doing great and keep me informed and keep posting those grat recipes. XOXOXO, Lisa J

Wow, thanks for the tip! Those vitamins look awesome! I was looking for something to replace the nasty liquid ones I take now. Tell me, do they taste better than the flintstones?? I thought those were gross. I don't remember who said it here, but I agree that they didn't taste like I remembered as a kid! Vi

WHAT A FANTASTIC ACCOMPLISHMENT, MS LISA ... DOWN 40 #s IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE. YOU HAVE A VERY CONSERVATIVE NUTRITIONIST & IT LOOKS LIKE FOLLOWING HER RULES IS REALLY PAYING OFF. MY SURGEON & NUTRITIONIST ONLY REQUIRE A PUREED DIET FOR 4 WEEKS, BUT I'M STAYING CLOSER TO FLUIDS, H-P PUDDINGS & CREAMED SOUPS W/ SEAFOOD. SO FAR, IT IS WORKING FOR ME. I'M DOWN 25.40 #s IN 14 DAYS. ARE YOU EXERCISING YET? AGAIN MS LISA ... CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR AMAZING SUCCESS!!! GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK
