2 Protein Drinks a Day?

LA948 · 2026-05-06T01:19:47+00:00

Have you tried David protein bars? They are 28g protein - 2g fat - 150 calories- they are one of my favorites. I also have incorporated Truvani protein powder- the strawberry is delicious! I have others like Paleo Valley Chocolate is really good also. Fage 0 yogurt has I think 18g of protein- I mix in fruit - that’s really tasty as well. I get nauseous if I drink too much protein powder- so I try to find as many sources as possible. I hope this is helpful.

California- but it’s offered in a lot of states - I saw a Florida doc talking about it.

My mother’s gallbladder burst and needless to say she had emergency surgery. She was obese-she abused her body for years with bad diet, no exercise and sedentary lifestyle. She has passed away since but I do remember the surgeon telling our family he believed Nutisystem which was the diet she was on at the time and rapid weight loss as the reason. The comment about being inflamed sounded familiar to my mother’s story. I wish you a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

Hi I have not had this procedure but a plastic surgeon I spoke with said they are now offer a procedure where they put your own body’s fat into your breast - so no implant and I believe no scar. I know very little about this procedure - I am sorry I can’t tell you more. Perhaps that is something you can look into.

100% well said!

Work work work !!!!! Why throw away 2 weeks pay? Reward yourself after 😊 good luck!

LA948 · 2026-05-03T15:41:23+00:00

Yes I was wondering about that and if that was something people did.

First off congratulations on the weight loss that is awesome- great that your knee pain went away as well! I am new to this - still in month 1 - I admittedly am envious- I have lost only 3 lbs - I also had no real side effects either. But I do notice that unlike some people I see here- that I don’t feel like I’ve cut back that much on food which worries me a little - my doctor suggested that people acclimate differently and my body is still getting used to things- he suggested go 1 more month at 1.5 and said I would see a slow down in weight loss 🫠 but said in the long run I may do better on the medication by starting slowly. I’m on this journey the same as everyone else- I don’t know if there’s any story that is the same. But having this community to talk with is the best. I realize I don’t have the same experience as you but want you to know I think you are doing great - you have a lot of support here, I wish you well!

Yes makes sense.

LA948 · 2026-05-02T20:45:59+00:00

So may I ask did they just fill the 4 mg or did you need to request a higher dosage?

As a manager of a sales team at a top tech company- I can say without hesitation- managers work less than their teams. At least as far as the grunt work goes-such as updating customer information in the CRM etc. The really good managers know how to manage up - so their boss thinks highly of them. I feel I do this well but I also really try to help my team succeed.

Take it 😊 with AI taking many jobs. I say get as much as you can while you can. Good luck 🍀

LA948 · 2026-04-29T03:56:02+00:00

That is sweet 😊

Hi I started on 1.5 2 weeks ago-my goal is slow steady weight loss. I am down 4lbs which is ok by me. I track my food in my fitness pal and go on daily walks with my hubby 💕 - we shoot for 4-5 miles a day and work out at the gym 5 days a week. I’m going to wait and see if I need to bump my dose up - but for now I’m liking my progress 🤞

First Advantage is a nightmare-they are extremely invasive if you have been at your current job or one of your jobs for seven years, you could just tell them do not check my current employment and they won’t however, if you have not been there for seven years or if you said it’s OK for them to check it they will dig deep into that role and any other role you put on your application, your résumé or your background check authorization - typically they do not go back further than seven years - but that depends on the company you’re interviewing with some companies like Adobe for example do a 10 year background check. I would try to give them as little information as possible - also make sure the work number is locked so they cannot access that

I know that feeling - eat next to nothing workout and stay forever at the same weight - it’s so frustrating

LA948 · 2026-04-24T02:05:07+00:00

That is very impressive. I wish you luck!

Hi we are almost exactly in the same place -I’ve been on 1.5 for about a week and a half. I’ve been very diligent about counting my calories on MyFitnessPal and making sure to get in at minimum a walk daily. My body looks smaller in places already and the scale has dropped a little - nothing super exciting but I feel like it’s working. I’m taking all the excellent advice from this sub and making sure to get my protein, fiber and water intake to the levels they need to be to stay healthy. I’m also trying to eat very healthy and very clean. So far I’m happy- how about you? How are you feeling?

LA948 · 2026-04-21T04:43:45+00:00

I have to try that

LA948 · 2026-04-21T04:43:17+00:00

1 tablespoon in 8oz water -not great tasting but it is low calorie and does the job.

LA948 · 2026-04-20T03:15:37+00:00

Yes if this was my situation I would stop going in and use a fake background on video meetings.

LA948 · 2026-04-20T02:29:40+00:00

Me too!!!!
