Down 3 pants sizes in a little over 3 months!



Recommended Posts

I just got back from shopping for a new pair of jeans because every pair I own was falling off. I started this journey as a size 24 and have been buying size 20 pants for a month now. Tonight I went to get jeans and the ones I really wanted didn't have a 20. I told the sales lady I would TRY the 18's but there is no way they would fit! I was shocked when they fit AND looked great:) Down 47 pounds and 3 sizes and feel amazing. (surgery was October 30th, 2012)

I just had my second fill on Wednesday and think I may have hit the green zone. I think I have a 10 CC band and the first fill they put in 2.8 CC's and this time he put in 2 CC's. He did it under xray with fluro and he cinched it all the way down and then let up enough to no see any reflux. The bad news is that I can't eat carbs really but the good news is that I can't eat many carbs really:) I definitely feel restricted to eat between 6 and 8 ounces of healthier food and feel full and it feels great. Lovin' my band! Gonna hit 50 pounds next week!!

      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.
