I found a great source of protein!!!!

So this morning I stopped at the local gas station and picked up this bottle....Muscle Milk...but it has no milk at all in it...lol..

In a 14 fl oz bottle there is 240 calories and 25grams of protein. This is good because your calories/protein ratio should be 100/10.

After more research I saw that they also have a Muscle Milk-n-oats. A breakfast oatmeal with 35 grams of protein. I have yet to try it but will be getting some next pay day!!!


So.... TRY IT!! ITS GOOD... and I am picky... I should know  :-p

Sorry have not posted in awhile

So I went for my second lap band fill 10/20/2010... The surgeon poked around in there awhile before he found the port and now I am bruised... :(

Anyway.... I am apparently missing 1cc since my last fill. The surgeon said it could be hidden in the curves of the band. During my first fill I had 2 cc and he added 1cc. I did not feel much of a difference with that fill. This time when he aspirated the fluid he only pulled out 2cc....there is suppose to be 3cc...hmmmmmm

So he added 1cc in and only documented 3cc in my chart. I have another fill appt scheduled for 11/15/2010 and we will see if I have "lost" any more cc's. I sure hope not.... *fingers crossed*.

I have not felt a difference since the second addition of fluid to my band. I ate fine after. I am told however it can take up to two weeks to feel any difference from a fill. I hope it kicks in soon.

On another topic I got my weight this morning. I lost 2 pounds!! WOO HOO!!!!
So that is 22 pounds since a week before surgery. I lost 3 pounds between my first fill and the second fill.

I still have a very long way to go... 82 pounds more. I was hoping to be down to atleast 200 by Christmas.... so I guess we will see...
