Hi, this is pretty normal. I'm actually running neck and neck with you. I was 4 mos out on the 8th of Oct. I started at 260 and as of this morning I'm 203, so I've lost 57 lbs. I do feel like its slow though hoping it will pick up soon I started watching carbs more the past few days and have noticed a difference. Good luck

Hey lizsmile,

56lb in 4mths is brilliant! When I was at 4mths I had lost 30lb and I was thrilled to bits, so I think you are doing really well. In the last 2mths you have lost 9lb per mth, which is over 2lbs a week ... that is pretty much spot on! Try to look at the bigger picture and not mth to mth, although I appreciate that is hard work!

Just keep on doing what you are doing, as to me it sounds just right. You are over half way to goal!! Keep up the good work and good luck... =]

It's normal, your body metabolism is adjusting, you can't lose at same rate over long period of time. You need to shake up metabolism and get out of starvation mode. Add a few calories for a couple of days then reduce and increase exercise. Eat small meals and move around more during day.

      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.
