Great job! It's great to move out of that bracket! I am so happy to be just "severely overweight". Sounds so weird but true!

Tannak, you'll need to look at a BMI chart....it's based on height and weight.

30 is obese. 35 is severely obese and 40+ is morbidly obese. you can use a chart or roughly:

702*(weight in pounds)/(height in inches squared)

so 279 for 5 foot 10 is (702*279)/4900 = 40

the 702 is there because BMI originally in metric units and the 702 used when doing lbs and inches instead.

So when I get to aBMI of 39 I will no longer be morbidly obese!! I am getting close!! Can't wait!!

      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.
