to start again

hey hi i have a question if ya dont mind.  I too am a Kaiser fontana patient went to dr, Suh had my surgery july 29th 2011 and have been losing about a pound a day to 2 days so far I have lost over 40 lbs.  Im pretty amazed and am wondering when does it usually tend to slow down?  I dont like any protein shakes at all so im having trouble with getting enough protein and am thinking its because im defecient in it

Your Protein is very important. I have  a rough time with mine too but I force myself to do it, I have found I can do the Premier shakes from Costco and to change it up I add sf raspberry syrup to it.. With me on the weight loss I am considered a light weight so I didn't have a lot to lose so mine is coming off slower then Hubby.. My surgery was on 4/14/11 and I have lost 53 lbs Hubby surgery was on 5/4/11 and he has lost 81 lbs, He has been losing kinda like you are. We both had Dr Fedorka.. 

aww thanx lisa I appreciate the advice
I had to chuckle when I read your posts leading up to surgery!  I too waited a long time for my options classes and all the pre testing psych tests etc!  Was funny I felt like a kid waiting for a Christmas that was taking forever to arrive!  Im still struggling to find protein I can keep down.  Ive even got to eating a Arctic Zero ice cream daily for the 4 grms of protein I get an can keep down!  Wishing you continued good luck!   Patti

I too feel like a kid on Christmas..They just called and my classes start next week. I asked for a evening class but that doesn't start until Nov. So I told my boss and she is letting me leave early every Thursday!!! I am a nurse for mentally ill children so I hope nothing happens on Thursday for the next 12 weeks. My boss said she would take care of it!!!! I am blessed!!!

 Good I am glad you got your call, Now you will be given alot of good info and the weeks will be over before you know it.. To be honest hubby and I were kinda bummed when the classes were over, we met alot of really cool people in the classes.. Best of luck to you on your journey
