75 pounds lost in 4 months



Recommended Posts

I am feeling good have lost 75 pounds in 4 months, I was banded Feb 10, 2011. I feel really good, can still eat more then I think I should be able to which worries me. I have had some people say they can tell but I am surprised that after 75 pounds I still don't feel like I look any different. Does anyone else battle that feeling of all of this work and you feel like people don't see it?

I have 125 more to go!!! I am excited I would like do it this year!

Would love to hear any input and success stories.

Jen

I haven't lost as much as you, but nobody has made mention of it either, other than my immediate family (who know about the surgery). I'm in a smaller size of clothing, I can feel that my body has changed, I see a difference in the mirror, yet apparently nobody else has noticed it. Oh well- their loss!

I am exactly the same way. i have lost around 38 pounds at this point and i know that i feel better and my clothes are fitting better, but no one has said a word. it's kind of a good thing at this point because i didn't tell anyone about the surgery, so when they start to notice i will have to decide how i'm going to handle it and what i'm going to share with them

for now, i will just keep doing what i'm doing. hope to join you very soon in the losing 75 pounds department. my goal is to lose 100 pounds total, but in order to not be obese, i'd have to lose over 200 though. i think that i just 100 pounds will put me in a more comfortable place though.

keep us posted if people start to notice and tell us how it's going,.

      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.
