Hello JT, You look great. Great job!!! I am new to this family. I had my surgery on 7/31/06 and have lost 27 lbs so far. I hate the protein shakes, but I do eat meat, cheese, peanut butter, etc to supplement the protein needed. I try to drink plenty of fluids though. I work out 3 to 4 times a week. What else can I do to increase my wt loss? ANy suggestions/comments? Lisa

Hey JT, Congrats, and continued success. Rememeber that we have our RNY as a tool but only a tool to continued success....but you sound like you're working it well. Note to Lisa W: I don't MIND the shakes taste-wise but.....they do seem to make me gasssssssssssy. I wrote to the company last night to see if they are lactose-free or not. I have lactose intolerance so that may be part of it but the ultra-whipping in my awesome Magic Bullet pumps it up so much with air so who knows the real reason. What kind do you drink? CONGRATS AGAIN TO JT!!

Congrats JT! I'm so glad to hear that you're feeling great. You look terrifi****ep up the good work and don't be a stranger! Hugs, Amy
