What a good feeling to go from ( admittedly some years ago) from morbidly obese 287 to an even 200 (one pound from ONEDERLAND!!!!!!).

That is great!!! My father had a quadruple bypass and after he had it, he felt so much better, he had gotten used to not feeling good and tiring so easily. Now that you had that and have taken off quite a bit of weight, I can hear the Rocky tune playing!!

87 pounds in a month that's amazing

Sorry, it is 36 pounds in a month. I use the 287 as my highest weight to keep me motivated.

Over the last 10 years I had lost in the neighborhood of 50 + pounds, but I still had to have a triple bypass 2 years ago (and my bad cholesterol was only 75) and my diabetes was ragingly worse. I was on 90 units of Levimir (long acting insulin) a day and between 20-30 units of Novalog (fast acting insulin) a day., as well as 2000 mg. of Glucophage.

So, even though I was no longer morbidly obese (287). I decided to have the surgery. I know longer use Glucophage and only 5-10 units of insulin a day. THAT IS A 90-95% IMPROVEMENT ON INSULIN ALONE AND 100% ON GLUCOPHAGE.

So the surgery did what I wanted already.

Don

      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.
