I had to share with you all because I think you all would understand. Today I left that awful word obese behind. This morning my BMI is 29.8 and not 30 or greater. I am free from that word and I am never looking back. Thanks for listening.

I celebrated with 3 new shirts and a new pair of pants. I realized this week I had no long sleeve shirts that fit. One thing I've learned is to reward myself along the way, every 10 lbs and every big milestone like onederland and now this. I don't Celebrate with food but something to boost my esteem. Today I also checked out some stores I hadn't felt comfortable in only to realize they carried some bigger sizes then I wear now so I could have shopped there sooner.

Congratulations! Next time you see your doctor, I'd ask him/her to write "no longer obese" on yur chart just to make up for all the times "obese" was written on it!

I have always wanted a Pandora Bracelet (a real one) and could not justify the cost. I have decided to reward myself with the bracelet upon surgery and a new charm or bead for every 20 lbs. I figure all the $$$ we're saving on take out and junk food will more than cover my reward.

      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.
