Just a little update
Hey guys, just wanted to drop a little update. I am still doing well. A little adjustment to my earlier post - I was trusting my home scales (mistake) and thought I had lost more than I really had. I posted in the first week that I had lost 30lbs when it was only about 12. I actually feel better with the slower loss. Now I am up to about 25 pounds at three weeks. I have started the food thing with no real problems. I actually cheated and started a little earlier because I had to stop the Boost/Ensure/Carnation thing. It started making me feel really bad - maybe some dumping. I did go and get some Whey Protein from GNC, each 8oz has 21 of protien with only 4 of carb and 3 sugars. This gives me a little more freedom with regular meals. I mix a double cup (16oz) and work on it most of the day with water breaks. I have no real soreness to speak of unless I really lift something I shouldn't. I played a little basketball over the weekend and felt pretty good. I go back to Dr. S's in another couple of weeks and plan to be released from him to follow with the Obesity clinic in a couple of months.
Take care, james.
