I am on vacation in San Francisco this week. I have been walking up and down hills galore, even climbed the STEEP stairs up and down to the Coit tower from the road below. I feel great! Last year at this time I was 25# heavier, at The Grand Canyon, swollen right knee, fatigue, uncomfortable/embarrased about how I looked. I will turn 50 tomorrow and feel better than I have in a number of years. This is the first vacation I won't gain weight on and will probably actually lose weight!

I have enjoyed small amounts of the different foods with my husband and son. I carry a Protein Drink and bar in my packback for extra nourishment when there aren't great choices available. No sour dough bread for me, lol!

I just wanted to share my happiness...

congratulations! So excited for you! I know the feeling. I am only 3 weeks out today and am enjoying life so much more already! I am down 15lbs since surgery day and down 28lbs since pre op diet. I feel fantastic. I have 82lbs to go to goal but you know the journey so far has been a good one. Congratulations again and good job for keeping Protein Shakes and bars with you!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
