75 pounds down!

This morning I weighed in at 288.  I haven't weighed that since 2001!  I still cannot believe this is working, and I am never hungry.

Now if I could just get my behind in gear and try to get more protein in.  I still cannot stand the smell of any proteins, and it is really depressing that my hair is starting to fall out.  But tomorrow is a new day!

Thanks for letting me share!

Best wishes,

Kim

Congrats on your weight loss so far.  You are doing fabulous.  As far as the protein,  I had the same problem.  My husband came up with this idea and it worked great.  He bought me the disposable coffee cups with the lids.  I couldn't smell it and was able to choke it down.  You might try it...............  Couldn't hurt.

Way to go Kim!!! That is awesome!! Sorry you are having a hard time with the protein...can you tolerate milk at all? I've been making and eating Eggface's protein ice cream like crazy, and it's really helped boost my protein levels.  (Although I think I washed the paddle extender for my ice cream maker down the drain last night  so I had to order a replacement today!)

My hair started falling out about a week or so ago, and I started taking Biotin this week.  My nails broke too, so I'm hoping the added protein and biotin will help.

Hi Kim,

Congratulations!!  It's amazing that the weight keeps just falling off. 

Are you taking Biotin?  That helps some people reduce the hair loss.  Keep trying protein..It will come.

Thanks everyone for your support.  I really appreciate it.

I will have to try the cups with lids.  I will keep trying protein until I find something I can deal with.  I did try the ice cream and shanna B. was right the walmart brand isn't too bad, but I need to get some of the syrups for the icecream flavors then it will probably be better.

Thanks again,

Kim

Great job Kim!  Doesn't it feel really great to know that the weight is coming off?  It makes it worth having the surgery. 

I have some problem getting all of my protein in also.  I use vanilla Shake-A-Whey, but they had some problems with the batches that they made so now it's going to be hard to get for several months.  It tastes good and doesn't have that smell.  I get it at Cutting Edge Nutrition in Indy.  You may be able to get it on-line from a Warehouse Drug website. 

Anyway, way to go and keep up the good work!!!
