Just Got My Head 'right' 13 Months Post-Op



Recommended Posts

Most guys my age, height and weight would have lost more than the 5 lbs per month I've lost since bring banded. It took me 3 monyhs to lose the last 10. But I finally got my head right recently. Now I'm adjusted to the ordering of a side item for my entree or seeing two hard boiled eggs constitute a complete and filling meal.

It's weird when you reach that point where you no longer think like a fat person or think of yourself as somebody who should act like a fat person. Now I really feel like a skinny guy with only a couple to three months of time as the only thing between me and the final 50-60 lbs. Anybody else see this change finally happen like a switch was flipped?

Yep, I've had the "switch" flipped a couple times for me. The first time I lost like 50lbs in 6 months. And then it just happened again after having a stressful past 6 months at work (I gained back 10lbs). But I've lost 11 so far and I will continue on to losing!

I'm actually eating too little right now and need to start consuming more foods. My mom, fiance, and a friend are all fussing at me about my diet the past week. I'm really only getting around 500 calories a day right now, which definitely isn't enough.

      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.
