I lost weight by going with two Protein Shakes a day and a small dinner at night. That combination helped me lose the last 12-15 lbs I needed.

did you get weighed already?

You could add a few 10 lb ankle bracelets and take them off slowly

cut out carbs - clean your cabinets and fridge, get rid of rice, Pasta, sugar, all of it. Give it away if you can. Otherwise, toss it. You WILL be tempted to eat it if it's already right there. Get rid of your soda and other sweetened beverages, even juice - it has carbs, too.

Replace 1 or 2 meals with Protein shakes. Increase your Protein so you feel full without the carbs.

Start moving. Walk around the block a few times, hit the gym, whatever. Just walk. If nothing else, walk, walk, walk.

IDK what you're starting at weight wise, but most overweight people are carrying around a lot of Water weight, so watch your sodium intake also. Skip salt when you can.

So yeah, basically do what your dietitian says. It works! :)

It took me about 10 days to lose the weight.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
