I like the CHIKE flavors - I order them on amazon. They have a coffee flavor (has caffeine) and a strawberry flavor which tastes awesome.
Deisel from Popeyes. I HATE protein powder in general, but I like this one it is a New Zealand whey isolate. lots of flavours. I want to try the salted caramel, but I can seem to find it in stores in Canada.

I kind of wish I had asked to have mine out at the same time, but I'm not sure if they do that. It wouldn't hurt to ask though! I just had to get mine removed (6 months after WLS). The worst part post-op for me was the gas pain in my right shoulder - it was excruciating for about 24 hours. Also two of my incisions have been more painful than the ones I had for WLS, but I have no clue why. Other than that, gallbladder surgery hasn't been that bad.

"We all have two lives. The second begins when we realize we only have one."
First week of a 0 pound loss.
I was at Disney for the past week. There was, perhaps, a cupcake or three, and some Mickey bars, and a half pound cheeseburger with fries. Very tasty! I shall begin again now.

Would it be too much to ask my surgeon to remove my gall bladder during my RNY surgery? I haven't had any issues with it, but my mother had to have hers removed (non WLS related) and it seems like so many post op people have gall stone issues. Just wondered if anyone requested this from their doctor.

So if you missed the challenge on the RNY Board last week it was AMAW- All Meat All Week. I did the critter version which could include anything from an animal. I need to do 100g protein a day pre-surgery and post surgery. Had LBL 2/29 and having BL/AL May 2nd.
It was a total success in my book... I had been floating around 4 of the 5lbs I had gained the weekend I went to the wedding....so I lost that as well as an additional 2lbs. My hunger disappeared by day 3. Now could I do AMAW all the time, No...but I realize if I am slipping it is definitely a tool to get Back-on-Track.

Trying to find my 'happy place'. Claiming the 176 as my new number to keep my weight around...(we know we fluctuate day to day....) New low for me this week...Don't think I weighed this since elementary school.
