    Topic: RE: Unjury scoop, how many tablespoons is it?
     Yeah, I figured it was just under 1 ounce from the package, but when I weigh that it was almost and entire cup, and I know thats not right!

    Ive gone through the entire thing with a wide wide spatula and its just not in there.

    Topic: RE: 800 calories
     so am I totally sinking myself if at 7 months out I am consistently under 900 calories and have many days under 800 AND working out pretty much everyday, I use a HRM and burn about 800 in a workout? I thought I was a slow loser but maybe I am not eating enough? I tried to ask my nut. about calories and all she tells me is not to worry about calories but eat fruits veggies and whole grains in my meals. Well I do but I don't want to go overboard either. Im never hungry, haven't been since surgery.
                
    Topic: RE: AAARGHH!! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!
    I don't have this issue, (I might be too darn busy to notice though)
    But my mom was also very heavy and I remember kids asking her 'why are you so fat" and she told them EVERY time, from eating blonde haired (if they were blonde) blou eyed boys lol
                
    Topic: RE: What do you do with unflavored protein mix?
    I use it everyday in a shake with a little mil**** and low carb yogurt. I don't notice the taste really

    Topic: RE: I'm having the opposite issues
    Sorry, I can't figure out how to make my surgery show up. I had a rny on 6/28/11 I am 11 weeks out today. I thought those feelings would start to be coming back by now. Thanks for the input :)
                
    Topic: RE: I'm having the opposite issues
    that I thought I would be, I thought or sure I would have head hunger/emotional eating.INSTEAD, I am never hungry. I dont like eating, I feel like I have to force myself to eat and I am not even close to my protein goals most days. On busy days I can easily go 6 hours without eating and I still don't feel hungry. Going to the dr next week because I am a little worried this could turn into a bigger problem
    Anyone else have same/similar issues?
                
    Topic: RE: Hypoglycemia/metformin
    I always took metforin to LOWER my blood sugar.. isn't RH LOW blood sugar?  That doesn't seem like it would be a good combo
    Topic: RE: Pre Op Liquid diet
    I have a carbmaster yogurt (with unflavore protein) or 1/2 protein shake every morning. Then either broth or cream soup for lunch (with protein powder) sometimes a jello. the other half of the shake and some more soup usually. fudgecicle or hot chocolate after dinner

    Topic: RE: Pre Op Liquid diet
    Im day 4 also.. I think making a plan on what to eat beforhand makes it much easier! Good luck!
    Topic: RE: Protein Shakes?
    I like the premier protein from costco its a RTD and pretty reasonably priced. I mix it with milk because it is super thick.  Good luck finding one you like!
    Topic: RE: Sounds ridiculous but I'm asking anyway...
    I am pre op so I cant say if its related.. but I am the same way. Check out sun poisoning. I had a reallllly bad burn and since then I have a reaction, like goosebumps but super itchy with pretty much any sun exposure.. regardless of spf.
    Are you a natural red head?
    Topic: RE: Going to mexico and I'm gonnnnna get sleeved..
    So excited for you! Can't wait to see your progress!!
    Topic: RE: What is a "Bariatric Center of Excellence?"
    I agree, that is why so many insurances require that procedures be done by a center of excellence!  It's just like "preferred" car repairs, they make a deal with insurance too. 
                
    Topic: RE: pin-up pictures
    If its a professional that does these shoots often they probably have some wardrobe stuff..
    other than that I would say check ebay :)
    Topic: RE: no bra right after surgery?
    Thanks ladies for the help!  I usually only wear underwire so I will be on the hunt for something else for a few wees!
                
    Topic: RE: no bra right after surgery?

    Just saw another post similar. I didn't even know/think that would be an issue.. how long before you were able to feel comfortable in one IF it affected your incision?

    Topic: RE: Can someone help me find
    Thanks, but that is not the one I am looking for, it's the one that will show your estimated loss from surgery.
