I keep thinking I'm at the end of my loss and i keep being wrong. I'm at a new low today of 192.2 pounds and I have four weeks to go to my surgiversary. I was contemplating doing a "real diet" with Medifast or cottage cheese and pot roast, but I was resisting it too because of the sheer panic involved in all that starving and watching the scale and so on.

Now I'm thinking it might not be necessary, at least not yet. I'm not near my published goal of 155, but I have lost seventeen pounds since January and it's possible i could keep dropping down, slowly, for a while. Eight pounds a month is a pretty good rate of loss, especially this far into my surgery year.

I haven't been this slim since....2006.

:) You know I'm going to do pics for you guys in April, right?

:). Just an update.

      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.
