Thin ankles Sweetie! Thin ankles! -- Edina from Absolutely Fabulous

I updated my measurements.  I must say I was a lil surprised -- five inches off my waist?  I have no idea what I weigh at the moment and rather think I'm happier for it.

Just received an order of ISOPure Zero Carb individual drinks.  I rather enjoyed the clean taste, unfortunately 1/3 of the way through the bottle and I already feel bleh.  I just don't think I can stomach whey protein.  *shrug*

I'm dying for something to crunch on.  I've got these Genisoy crisps, but I don't know if I can have 'em or not.  It'll be a cold day in hell before I eat a pork rind.

Unfortunately the surgeon's office only gave instructions and meal options for the liquid and pureed stage.  As for solid all they said was no rice, bread or pasta for you.  I've heard many on here had a comprehensive guide from a real nutritionist for three to even six months of their journey.  I suppose it's because I belong to a program that doesn't believe in a minimum calorie intake.

Another thing that boggles my mind are these damn protein bars.  3 effective carbs it claims, yet it contains quite a bit of Maltitol and Glycerin.  Now I final found an explanation behind maltitol: It claimed that while your regular carbohydrate equals four calories per gram, Maltitol equals only 2.6 ish.  Still that doesn't tell me what your body breaks it down to.  And Glycerin is completely up for grabs.  So what the hell?  If our bodies don't turn into glucose, then what happens to it?

My kingdom for a nutritionist!
