Ok so i was sleeved 12/5 and have lost over 18 pounds. I never liked shopping for myself cause i hated standing in the mirror. I feel so good that i want to go and put some clothes in the layaway and hopefully by the spring i would be able to fit them. Finally brought me some shoes and now I'm going to sign up for the ymca and I'm getting a trainer. I may have to get a second job for my new shopping habit

Check out some of the thrift stores in your area! I've had pretty good success getting NICE clothes for way cheap. I lucked out one day and almost all of the clothes I was buying were 50% off -- at a THRIFT STORE! ($2-$3 for jeans?) One thing that I've made a point of doing is wearing clothes that FIT.

I understand totally. I am having surgery on the 23 rd and asked my hubby to get me some smaller size things for christmas. I went to good will also and just picked up a couple things to get me started in like xl instead of 1 or 2 x...cant wait!

      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.
