TOday was my first time trying it...Its not chalky tasting. Its got a good fruity flavor. Just make sure to dissolve it. Its wierd having lumps/chunks in fruity drinks, lol.

I love the fuzzy navel, and that it tastes good in water. I like my flavor diluted, so I add extra water and use a shaker cup. Also sometimes make a smoothie with 1 cup plain kefir, ice and sweetener- tastes like an orange julius....

Hope you had a great weekend with your sister and nephew! You look amazing for only just shy of 8 weeks post op! You can so see the change in your face. Your son is just beautiful! It must feel so good to get more mobility as you loose weight and you can play with him more, so exciting!
If you want to save on calories, start making your breakfast protein shakes with water, just a suggestion! Great menu, keep up the great work!
I missed ya'll yesterday! I spent the day at a Real Estate Convention (took the day off from this job), and had a great time! I went to lunch with 3 fellow Realtors that I work with, and had a real eye opening experience. We went to a place I've been to many times. Sat in a booth I've sat in before... and I sat next to a friend who is MO... during our meal/chatting time, I glanced down at myself, in the booth. I had PLENTY of room, like could have crossed my arms in front of me room... my MO friend's breasts were pushed up against the table. That was me. I had sat, in her exact spot before, breasts almost sitting on the table when ate. It seemed that as I got my heaviest, EVERYTIME I ate, I came home with a new spot on my shirt... always in the boob-area! I really did find myself sympathizing with her... which brings me to.......
QOTD: I don't think I noticed MO people as much... I guess because of what's already been said. I do tell the truth when someone asks me about my weight loss... especially if they ask how I'm doing it. I just can't keep my mouth shut about it... I wanted to tell my friend yesterday that there was a way to make herself healthier--she was telling me about her last Dr visit... diabetes/ HBP/ Sleep Apnea/ and now she has a cardiologist appointment next week. She could benefit so much! But, alas, I also know that if she wanted to know more about it, now she can reach out to me, since I put my journey out there for her. I can't change anyone's minds until their ready...
My before and after. As of this morning, I'm weighing in at 178.0. Will I change a lot as I lose another 35-40lbs?? I don't know, but I love this journey... but looking through my old pictures really hits home... I had not idea I looked so big! The before's were taken at a girl's getaway in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia almost exactly 1 year ago. The 'In Progress' was taken this morning (Note, Instant Pot STILL sitting in my foyer... it's actually a funny joke around our house at this point)
