Has anyone been feeling depressed and weak? Im so tired and depressed all the time. Lost 19 pounds in almost four weeks after surgery and none in the last week.

Ur tired because ur not eating as much as before so the body is lacking nutrients, 19 lbs is better than 0, depressed because this is a total life change and we were able to eat whatever and whenever but don't be, give it time, u'll lose then stop then even gain but don't stop! Ur going to be fine and fabulous! Good thoughts, only good thoughts and b4 u know it, ur shopping cuz ur pants too big or ur bra don't hold ur boobies, u start to notice ur neck bones, ppl will ask of u've lost weight but u won't feel or see it for a few months baby girl... I'm 1 year post and 120 lbs down, depressed, hungry,annoyed but mostly hungry, lol don't feel 100% but look sooooo much better and shopping is so much easier... Take ur time but don't let depression get the best of u, to be honest, it'll slow ur weight loss....u have no idea the life change u have just made but like everything else, it takes time, I'll pray for u as I do for all my sleeve buddies! I don't care who says this is easy, this has been the hardest thing I've done in my life and I'm 35, I be starving and hating on ppl who eat everything but I look great and my self esteem is so much higher! I promise the same for u, now smile, take a deep breath, drink some Water, walk around da block a few times and know, everything is gonna be alright! :-)

      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.
