Topic: RE: Too Straw or NOT to Straw

I realize I'm entering this thread a few months late but I just wanted to add my two cents.

I have a drinking problem. I HAVE to use a straw! Navigating a filled glass of water around my MORE than ample bosom, I tend to spill my drink all over my face and chest when I go to drink without a straw! True! LOL. 

As far as pop...yes, I said "pop" not soda  , LOL...I drink a glass every now and then and have never felt uncomfortable, full or bloated. Even without a good burp. Though TMI it feels oh so good when I do let one out!

Weightloss phase is different than maintenance. 1000 alories a day on a regular basis for most people is too much to be losing weight. 100g protein is great. My Doc's mantra is: Protein first, then veggies, and then if you have any room, fruit then (starchy) carbs. He never says no carbs, just put them at the end of the list.

Every snack and meal should be protein forward, and dense protein will keep you full the longest. Also don't be afraid of fats, we need that too. Change up your food choices, we can get into a rut.

See the link below for the 5 day meat test...helps you kick carbs to the curb and get back on track...with protein first.

Topic: RE: Pre-Surgery and First week Post Op Questions

Unjury is a well-respected product.  Like the above poster said, it's 100% whey protein isolate, which is well absorbed.  We were told to stick to 100% whey protein isolate early on.  Some of those other protein drinks may be blends, which aren't as well absorbed.  I do drink blends occasionally now at 16 months out because I'm getting most, if not all, of my protein from food, but that's not the case in the early weeks and months.  

Syntrax Nectar products are also 100% whey protein isolate, FYI.  Lots of people use and like those, too.

I agree with the others - call your surgeon.  When I had this happen, it turned out to be a stricture.  It's an easy fix and I felt better immediately.

Topic: RE: Advice

most people on here are most successful doing low carb (mostly protein and non-starchy vegetables) and eating around 800 calories a day during the weight loss phase.

I eat fruit as well, but then, I'm not very carb sensitive.  Those who are carb sensitive avoid fruit as well - or eat very little of it - because the sugar in it causes cravings for them as well.

  1. Canned meats (tuna, chicken, etc)
  2. Nuts
  3. jerkys of any meats
  4. beans (incomplete proteins)
  5. protein bars

These would be a great options

I think you must consult a good doctor asap.

Tell me what you usually eat during morning, noon and night

I wonder what you eat every day. If you wanna lose your weight then you have to completely abandon having fatty food and too much non-veg stuffs too. I would suggest you to have GM diet. I've heard a lot of success stories of those who have lost their weight within 7 days.Take a look at it.

A strict GM diet will definitely help you to reduce weight.

It would be better to talk with your doctor regarding this. He/ she is the only one who will know what exactly is happening to you.
