Topic: RE: Want my opinion on the best protein powders and shakes?
E -
Have you tried the Pure Protein RTD's yet? My fave is the Cookies & Cream. Since you're close by to TJ's and they carry the chocolate and vanilla, I sometimes get those, especially when I have a handy-dandy $1 off coupon!!!!!
Hope all is well with you and the boys!!!

Tia, I going to check out this EAS tomorrow at Walmart. I had a bad experience with muscle milk once.
Need a substritute since losing my AchievOne's to god knows what.
Ibariatric has a drink (ready to drink) that I keep wanting to buy - I just detest the shipping costs of these products!

Hi All... I just found the Maryland forum..DUH!!! I live in Fallston & work in Middle River. Anyway ...is there any patients of Dr Lidor out there? I am having RNY with Dr Lidor on 12/10/2010 & was wondering what others think of her as a WLS Surgeon. I am totally comfortable confident with her ...just being nosey. Oh Yea...Anyone Go to the BayView support groups?

TIA!!
Where have you been woman!? Hopefully you are out with that new man of yours having a good time!
Thanks...Im just over-reacting maybe? AND of course Im getting all worked up over it and my appt isnt for another WEEK. LOL Sometimes I think Im NOT happy unless Im stressing over something.
You're right. Im tracking EVERYTHING and can print it all out. I was slacking on the exercise for a while, but Ive really picked it up now. Im walking at lunch (not SOO vigorous, since Its only my lunch break) but Ive just started Zumba...and Im LOVING it!
I gotta relax...but its so easy to put it out there...plus writing it for you all helps me deal

(((MAR)))
Look again at what you wrote - you've lost 32 pounds in 8 weeks - THAT'S 4 POUNDS A WEEK. And YOU'RE happy! That's paramount to ANY success!
But I know what you're saying - you still feel like a failure. But by whose definition?
First of all, DO NOT apologize to anyone, including the doctor. If you're being compliant with your food, drink and exercise, it seems to me you're doing the best you can. Hopefully, rather than criticize, your doctor's staff will want to do all they can to help you maximize your weight loss and will offer suggestions and help.
Assuming you're journaling everything you're doing, take that with you and let them see the numbers so they have it in black and white.
Personally, I think you're a smashing success, especially considering everything you've been through. Hang in there!
Hugs,
Tia

On the day of surgery, I weighed 298. My 4 week follow up, I was at 269 (now, this is according to MY scale where I weigh first thing in the morning...byt the time I make it to the dr in the afternoon, Im usually up a couple) That was a loss of 29 lbs (again...thats MY scale)
No one seemed to thrilled about that number...I think the grand total at the dr was 25-26 or so.
Dr A said by my next appt (4 more weeks...Oct 28) I should reach another 10% loss. That should be 27-29 lbs.
For the month of October, Ive lost a stunning, grand total of 3 pounds.
Im so afraid to walk in there next week and feel like a failure. Ive upped my protein and am working out MUCH more than last month.
Im at 800-1100 calories a day.
65-100 grams of protein.
80-100 carbs
25-50 grams fat
My BMR is around 2600 calories. By the numbers, everything looks good. Im happy with my loss so far. When was the last time I lost 32 pounds in 8 weeks? I assume the loss will pick up again. I just dont know what to say when I walk ino the dr office.
