What a 150 lb weight loss looks like...



Recommended Posts

Yes. Yes. Yes to all accounts! lol

I shaved years off my appearance' date=' My skin tone lightened and evened out and my hair did grow, but I did experience some thinning around the edges. I will say that I started very early on taking the Vitamin Biotin and still do for Hair growth. And, yes.. I drink a Protein Shake EVERYDAY. It's called Max fortress whey Protein shake. They sell it at Walmart for 16.00 I put 2 scoops in 28oz of Water and that gives me 52 g of protein. The rest I consume with food.< /p>

Hope this info helps :)[/quote']

Nikki82 is that Protein Drink considered ur meal or more like water intake? Is it disgusting or flavored? I have Protein Shakes but maybe your way of just drinking it like water would be easier as the shakes are starting to taste the same to me.

How many calories do you eat? Do you workout? You look great!!!

You look amazing! and so inspiring. I am getting sleeved on March 20. I've had such an inner battle on whether this is the right thing....like maybe I just haven't tried hard enough with everything I've done but when I see pictures like yours, it makes me feel better and hopeful. So thanks for sharing :)

Though I make it with water I consider the shake my meal (breakfast) because my 2 scoops contain 280 cals, 16 carbs and 4g of sugar. I wouldn't say they're nasty, but It's a different taste and it's one I've grown to tolerate. I just look at it as it has what I need therefore I will drink lol. But it's not that bad. And correction..it's called "Body Fortress" Not Max fortress as I previously said. And after that I start drinking my 28oz of water x's 4.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
