HI FIRENDS

I was to the dr. today for my 1week check up and now i'm down 15#----fellling great he took off all banages and said everything looks find to him and i do feel great. I told him my problem with protein and he said to wait a few more days and they but the flavorless and try it in pudding/soup--something of this type to try to get it in--- I start now on soft foods---that is better that the liquids and go back to see him on the 28th-- THANKS ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND I AM HAPPY TO HAVE MEET YOU ALL marie

Congrats Marie... sounds like you are doing a great job!!!!! WTG. Shawn M.

Isn't it wonderful to have the surgery over and see the weight coming off? You are doing so wonderful. Dr Zeni is the best and don't worry about the protein. It will all come in time. As long as you make an attempt to get it in you should be fine. Just go slow. You are still a newbie. I couldn't get a lot of protein in either. I am 90 days out and I can now eat eggs and chicken without getting sick. I had to learn to just take it all in stride, figure out what proteins worked for me and go with it. Best Wishes! Stacey B

Hi Marie You're doing great on the weight loss! Protein is a must, you have to have it. Try going to bariatriceating.com and order their samples. They have a package of samples and most of them are pretty good. I cannot stand the smell of protein , especially the unflavored ones. But i promise you that you will find one if you try the samples. I hope you find one you enjoy soon. Hugs Linda
