Hooray, people replied!
Thanks for all the input; I read your profiles and I think your experieces will help me, thanks a bunch.
But it still feels far too unreal. I keep thinking that it's all a lie... >.>;

Hey Liz,
Wooooohoo now I can put a picture to the name.
I'm pretty sure you've seen my profile, but either way - keep checking back. I don't shut up. LOL
I find at 1 month out you get sick of food. Just eat because you're hungry - get *****y because you can't figure out what to eat.
But you know, if you have any questions - just email me.

Hey,
I'm 18 - had Gastric Bypass 2 months ago today! Down -37 lbs from 355 lbs to 318 lbs. LOL isn't that wierd? I'm where you started.
As for protein drinks, I'm not sure. I don't have them often (wasn't on my list) and they make me sick on top of that.
Check out my profile, it's awesome. LOL
Ps. CONGRATS ON THE WEIGHT LOSSSS!!!!

I am 19. I had my surgery on May 10th, 2006. I am 3 months out and down about 50 pounds. I started at approximately 238 pounds. I am a college student in southern California. There are lots of pictures of my scars, my progress, and me on my profile as well as a lot of information about me and my process. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me through e-mail. I am more than happy to help out. Good luck.

19 yrs old too! My surgery was May 10th. I am down almost 50 pounds. I use Max Muscle protein. I like the banana the best. The vanilla makes me gag. I haven't tried the chocoloate. I like to use protein bars best though. I feel like I am eating a chocolate bar, but it is FULL of protein. I get the pure protein ones. The chewy chocolate chip is my favorite, but the peanut chocolate and the chocolate deluxe are good too. 20 grams of protein, 170 cals, and hardly any sugar and fat! Not sure if you can do it at only one month out though. Good luck. if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me.
Topic: Dr. Wynn!
I met Dr. Wynn today! She is so cool! Now I'm just all excited. I have to wait for them to call me, because they don't have her schedule for September yet, so I can't make my own appointment until they get her schedule. I'm excited :D

both of my parents had RNY..and they use Designer Whey [i find the strawberry to be nauseating, and the chocolate to be tolerable]. My mom got some kind of Banana Cream whey, which was actually very good. Mix it with skim milk [water is SO gross with protein in it!] Thats all i can suggest
Topic: RE: Hi, I'm new..
I have an aunt who is really far out [almost 2 years, i think] and my dad is about a year out [he'll be a year Sept 29] and they're both still doing good..my aunt tells me it is a struggle though, and it really does become all you. My dad is slowly eatting more..but he catches himself, which is good. I'm looking for a lifestyle change..i just need something to FORCE me into it.
