5 weeks out and I am in amazment



Recommended Posts

So today I am 5 weeks out. I have lost 42 lbs. Had a week stall when TOM came to visit but all is well now.

Some of the NSV's I have encountered:

Going from a size 18 to a size 12 pants and XXL shirts to L. All of my clothes are way too big now except for the ones I held on to and thank goodness I did.

Not getting out of breath to do anything.... and I do mean anything. :D

My boyfriend putting his arms around my waist and being able to grab his elbows

with his hands...and commenting on it.

Ex-boyfriends seeing me and telling me how great I look. :P

I have a ton but I have saved the best for last........

And sex is so worth it now!!!!

Ok, ok. I know TMI .... but it is so true.lol

I hope everyone else is doing great as well!

Congrats! Can't wait to be there! What types of workouts are you doing to keep the weight/inches shredding?

I walk and ride my horses right now. Well for the last two weeks anyway. I haven't had much weight come off in the past two weeks either but I have lost many inches. Went from a size 16 to a 12 in a week. I really want to get in the gym and start working out but I work 2 jobs and it's hard for me to find time. I just keep walking about and hour a day and increase when I have a little more time to.

I get in between 500-700 calories a day. I am high on the carbs...at least higher than I'd like, but I am very active ;).LOL! I don't get all of my Protein but staying right around 50 grams. I may try to up the protein and lower the carbs because I have stalled only losing 2 lbs in the last two weeks. That's my goal anyway. Hard to get in everything while working so much.

      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.
