thanks! the protein poswder drinks just gag me..in fact nothing appeals to me really. I have also tried wendys chilli and it was great..I could only eat about half though...I added grated cheese ( you can order it that way) and it adds protein..good idea for lunch tomorrow though!!--had not heard about lemon, but i will try it as , water is still hard for me to get enough in.... keep it up...you will do well.

OMG, reading your post is exactly what I'm going through. I wanted to know someone who is going through the same thing. I have no energy because I went 4 days without eating. I just sip powerade, and I can't keep water or protein down. It's getting to me, and on top of this I have just not gotten where I want food. But I can't keep anything down. I pray that it gets better. To make matters worse I have only lost 20 lbs. That's good but for all the pain, and suffering it seems like it should be a little more. Wishing you better days a head!

I will be five weeks out of surgery on Tuesday ( March 20) and have lost around 30 llbs. I am still struggling though, its such a lifestyle change...I still battle the head hunger AND struggle to know what to eat. tuna tuna...soup...cheese, refried beans..tuna..I hate hate hate the protein shakes...I don't know what else to try? any ideas????

In the past when I've lost weight it took about 50 lbs for anyone to notice, but it also depends on what your starting weight is! I also wear very loose clothing anyways so if I don't buy new clothes to show the loss it will take people even longer to notice. Buy new clothing so people can see!

Thank you! I hope you are doing well also! Take Care, Robin
