Hey what's goin on guys? It's been forever since I've been on these forums, but last week marked the 1 year anniversary of my operation. I'm HAPPY to say I'm down 130lbs, and I feel completely normal. Everyone's saying how healthy I look hahaha. It's pretty awesome being able to go up stairs without wheezing after one flight. Anyway, update pic! I think I overdid it on the cardio. Need to tone up now lol!

Good for you - how is eating? How long did this take? When you say that you feel normal, does that mean that eating is great and you feel full with a small amount of food? I eat and get an uncomfortable full feeling, but still feel hungry. I feel nauseous every time I eat - I dread meals, yet I am dying to eat a good meal. Very unsatisfied....

Thank you! That little bump is called the xiphoid process, it's cartilage at the end of your sternum. It's normal haha.

Thanks, eating is going well, it's been just over a year for me and yea, eating for the most part is great, and generally feel full after a small meal. There are times when Proteins go down harder than carbs, but I don't usually feel hungry after. When did you have your procedure? It does take some time getting used to.

      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.
