Hey everyone...THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH FOR YOUR KIND WORDS AND LOVELY COMMENTS!!You all know exactly where I am coming from... this ain't the easy way out but it gives me a chance of succeeding that I have never done before and living a long, happy and healthy life!!I totally understand now, looking back, why this decision was one of the best of my entire life, because I can now live my life and enjoy it to the max. When that first pic was taken I hated it with a passion, it made me cry and I was completely disgusted with myself... now I look at it with sadness and love... because I know I am the same old me but I am now more able and more confident to do what I longed to do (silly things like like long walks with hubby, kids and dog; go swimming without a panic attach; say NO to food without feeling pressure to eat it!)I am not sure what to do re my goal weight... the only reason I set out to lose 102lb was to get in that 'normal' bmi range... I am 185 now, so I do need to get rid of a fair bit more... I am currently in a size 16-18 (UK), which isn't tiny but getting there... I think a size 12 would probably look nice! Not sure what 136lb would look like on me as I haven't been that weight since I was in school!My surgeon wants me to lose between 70 - 91; so perhaps I should readdress my personal goal... even my hubby is wondering where the rest will come from! I think time will tell.Sometimes, I still see the old me... like so many others here, my head is not in the same place as my body and it is going to take a while for it to catch up... but I am in no huge rush! However, in saying that I would love those saze 12 jeans to see Take That in June...lol...

I have no doubts. That's five months to get one size down. You got this!!!

      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.
