Is this a normal weight loss in the begining? I am going on my third week and really don't know what to expect. I feel like I can eat more then my 2 ounces but don't want to push it, my concern is that I can't get my fill until 4 more weeks. Do doctors usually make you wait 6 weeks before a fill?

My doctor won't do it for 6 weeks. I'm hoping to go back and get it done over Easter weekend but not sure how busy it is in Mexico at that time.

I had my surgery on Feb 20th and I've lost 22 lbs but man I'm starting to get hungryyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I ate things yesterday that I know I shouldn't have and I'll try to not do it again but I'm so hungry.

Good Luck and continued success with your journey...

Congrats on your 25 lb loss....hope you keep it off and continue losing more before your fill.

      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.
