Guest guest Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 - I assume you've been told to drink all that milk for protein? If so, please do some research, and consider switching to very low sugar protein drinks, made with water? If you switch, your protein intake will be higher, your sugar intake lower, and your weight loss faster. I do 6 protein shakes/day, each is about 4-5 ounces, so we're drinking comparable amounts of fluid for comparison. Each of my shakes contains 30 grams of protein, and less than 4 grams of sugar. So that's 180 grams of protein, 24 grams of sugar. By comparison, your milk totals only 32 grams of protein, and a whoppong 48 grams of sugar. So, I get 6 times as much protein, and only half the sugar. I believe that the sugar in milk will make *me* fat again, too. Great tasting, safe protein drinks can be purchased from Vitalady.com, they also sell sample sizes of all of 'em. Good luck with weight loss, with protein intake, and happy losing. 320/305/160/150 To: Gastric_Bypass_Family <mailto:Gastric_Bypass_Family@...\ om> Sent: Friday, May 07, 2004 4:02 PM Subject: 1 Month Post-Op!
