5 wks out and I'm in the 30s!



Recommended Posts

I calculated my BMI with my new current weight today and I am in the thirties! It was 38 and I was almost at 45 on surgery day. That's a six point drop in six weeks which just ROCKS!

Thanks for reading- I was so excited that I had to share. :D

That is fantastic! It's great to see such wonderful positive progress on here, since often times there is so much posted about struggle and difficulties. It's all very relevant, but the positive stuff is inspirational :) Congrats!

Thanks all!

@Purple Tulip: Other than feeling crummy the first few days and a mental rough day on day 5, I have felt fabulous. I think it's hard for me to say that a lot on the boards since I want to be sensitive to those that are struggling, but you raise a good point- that it appears it's difficult for all, if those of us who aren't struggling don't speak up. :)

      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.
