Try increasing your Protein and lower your carbs and increase your Water

Are you a vegetarian? This may be a culprit due to the high carb intake you would have.

Ok first off, what is 'normal'? There is no normal when it comes to weight loss. Everyone is different. Secondly, you have lost an average of 3.9 pounds a week since surgery! HELLO! That is not slow. It may feel like it to you because you can't say I've lost 150lbs in six weeks but 4 pounds a week is not slow by any means!

Take you time. Slower is better for skin issues in the long run anyway. You are doing fine. Keep doing what you're doing and it will all come off eventually!

What suzthebrit said. :) Just about everyone's experience is normal. :) I had a three week stall that started at week three. Just keep following your doctor's food plan and the weight WILL come off. I know that, for me, it was hard to comprehend just how "easy" losing weight this way really is. Easy? Well, once you know what you can eat, it really isn't hard - at least compared to dieting alone. :)

Yes, it's normal! Try measuring your waist and hips, etc. I think you will be pleasantly surprised!

Yes, I am pleasantly surprised by inch loss. Thanks.

Are you vegan? If not, Greek yogurt has a lot of Protein.< /p>

      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.
