Thanks for sharing Julie. Loved your You Tube Video. You are doing great and are truly an inspiration. I just received my date (Dec 22) so am excited, nervous and not sure what???? Keep working that sleeve - I can see a big difference in your before and now pictures!!! Congratulations! You should be very proud of yourself!

Ok I have a question...how in God's name are you drinking 64 oz. of Water a day???? I used to be able to do that and more in a day, now I'm lucky if I get 16 oz. of Water in a day, seriously. The 30 min. wait after eating totally messes that up for me :(

I really don't know -- after about 3 weeks, it was just easier for me to drink water -- I drink it normally too -- no sippy, sippy, sippy -- so I really don't know. I just drink -- now some days I'm better then others -- on my bad days I'll realize 2 hours before bed that I have 32 oz. to drink and then I'm drinking like there's no tomorrow (and peeing in the middle of the night too :lol:)

For me and the Water... I actually start my day with a 16.9 oz bottle of Water before I do anything (besides taking my PPI). That really sets the stage for my day.

You're lucky Julia that you can drink your water with ease. It sure is easier for me now that right after surgery, but I still find it difficult to get the full 64 oz in, and unless I start my day with it - It doesn't ever happen.

I can't begin to tell you guys how happy I am with the sleeve and what a difference it has made in my life. It's just beginning to dawn on me that this is really happening and that I don't have to worry that I'll gain it all back or do something that will make the scale gods unhappy with me.

I really really am so excited for my future -- I just can't believe it -- I feel like I have to pinch myself!! :D

Thank you all for your support -- even though I haven't said it enough, you guys are the best!

Starting weight: 303.6

Today: 249.2

thanks

I do that too! :lol: But truth be told, I've always been more of a Water drinker the later in the day it gets, and I don't know why. You would think that after sleeping all night with having NO liquid that your body would be ready for water first thing in the am. But I find as the day wears on I drink more, more, more. Starting probably about 2pm....and right up until bed. The funny thing is my girls are the same way, downing water before bed...just like me!

      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.
