In the beginning i was a youtube fanatic. Watching everyone's journey giving me high hopes for mine. People weighing about the same as i did in the beginning have lost nearly 70-80 lbs by now (almost 7 months post op). And i can now say I've lost almost 50. Its a size able amount but i still have 80 left. Now youtube just makes me feel discouraged and that i may be struggling or may have issues.

In the past 3 months i may have lost 10 lbs. the weight loss has come to a screeching halt.

Anyone else get where I'm coming from?

I felt the same way. I dropped 50 pounds fast in my first year, I was upset, I wanted 60-70.. I lost only 7 in the next year, I maintained. I went online & got a food list of Low Glycemic Index foods & started watching everything that went into my mouth. Measured it all. 1 cup or less... I walked daily. Next month's check up! Down 15 pounds & 3 pounds each month for the last 2 months. I'm now going to get back on track & I'm hitting the gym with a trainer too. I want my last 42-47 pounds GONE!

Good luck! You can do this!!

      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.
