no worries. you have (1) completely violated your insides (2) drastically reduced your calorie intake (3) hopefully become more active and (4) hopefully started eating healthier choices.

these all at once drastic changes will cause drastic effects in most people. and anyway, by 6 months, you'll be whining that you're losing too slow. :)

it's all good. as long as you don't feel exhausted all of the time. if you become lethargic, call your surgeon and ask his opinion, otherwise, hang on and enjoy the ride!

good luck.

I lost 40 lbs when I went to my 2 week post op appt. Our stats are very similar. The more you have to lose the faster it comes off. It's crazy losing weight that's fast, but totally awesome at the same time!

      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.
