Well hello! 
I have not been on this site in a really long time.  I have lost just about 100 lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!  I can cross my legs, run, wear a size 12/14, and that feels just great!  I look at myself in the mirror and I just cannot believe it. 
Protein is still a struggle, but hey, I just gotta choke it down.  I will write more later, i'm sleepy..

Ok, just so  you know, I'm hungry.  I really want to eat something good.  I'm not sure how this pureed phase will go.  I've been reading some of the posts about what people have pureed and it's comical.  One lady said she pureed the contents of a cheesesteak.  I could probably puree it up and would not even eat it.  I'm scared to eat pureed meat.  I'm sure I won't eat much of it, but it's just the thought. 
How about any of you out there.  How did you get through the pureed stage? Help me out. 
I'm waiting on my nut to email me back about other suggestions she has regarding this phase. 
How am I doing?  Really well!  My wounds are healing up nicely.  I don't have any pain, except for a little pull from just below my belly button.  I'm getting the required fluids in.  I'm working really hard on the protein.  So far today I've got 40 grams in.  I need 80 per day.  I can get some cottage cheese or something down later and that will count for some.  I haven't dumped yet, thank GOD.  I'm not looking forward to that. 
Well that's all for me.  Oh yeah!  I washed some jeans the other day and you know usually you have to stretch them out again in order for them to fit you correctly.  Well, they fit fresh from the dyer, and they were loose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a good feeling!
Take care people!

How in the heck do you get all of your protein in?  I am trying, I really am.  The protein shakes are not working for me.  I have purchased the tasteless powder at the suggestion of my dietitian.  It's not very good, no mater what you do to it.
