l have a surgery date!!!! WOW!!!
I decided I hate all protein powder.haha. i think the jay robb egg protein makes me feel less "bad", but I can also get in my protein through just food. If I eat greek yogurt (I like Fage strawberry goji), tuna- canned, fish, eggs, turkey, chicken, etc.... its low carb and high protein foods i eat...plus it helps with weight loss b/c im trying to eat the best i can to get my protein numbers as high as possible.
but, i have tried ALL bars and there is this one brownie that is AMAZING. (well, compared to the rest, it's pretty good! you can microwave it too) it's called met-rx big 100 high protein brownie. they are a little price-y but taste SO much better than the other kinds (in a red pkg at gnc). the rest seem chalky.
also, i loved loved loved peanut butter before vsg. now, if i eat it, instant nausea. your taste buds may change. i hated salty foods (like chips) and loved sugar before, now i'd rather salty over sweet. it's strange!! my husband even commented on how different that is for me.
i need to upload new pics of me before and at three months out. i don't see a real difference until i see the pics side-by-side.
and, i still picked up a size 26 shirt and was suprised when it didn't fit!! i ended up fitting in a 14/16 at lane bryant. it's very hard to catch up mentally. i get looked at by other men, i get compliments..it's hard to take it all in. very different than what i'm used to.
also, if i was going into a store, no one held the door for me, now men wait an extra minute or two just to hold the door if im coming up to it. VERY strange!!!
i'm just so excited for you to experience all this!!! i'm going to put you on my prayer list at church too!

That's so awesome that you don't have to rely on the protein powders anymore!!! l agree - it's much better to be on to the wonderful, natural, 'clean' foods. Check out the magazing 'Clean Eating' - sold everywhere. You'll love it - it's how we're supposed to eat, but they give really great new recipes.
l definately have to check out the brownie when l'm ready for that!!!
l soooo hope l will hate sweet things, lol!!
And OMG!! 14/16 already?!?!?!?!?!? l am so happy for you!!
The last time l lost a ton of weight l noticed the same treatment from men. Silly boys!
And l am extremely touched that you would put me on your prayer list. Thank you.
