10 months, 1 week post-op= 24.8 BMI= NORMAL but not (my) goal (happy dance!)

I did not do it the traditional low carb, high Protein, low fat way...but I did it none the less.... very proud of myself...

like most ladies, the belly is the last to go... so Im aiming to lose an additional 20 pounds..

I will be getting gall bladder surgery ( have no stones and minimal sludge but excessive swelling & fluid) in the near future..

Congrats on your loss!

So how did you do it since you mention you didn't do it the "traditional" way?

[vogue 310]

my needs were not beig met at 600-800 calories....

I eat 1500+ net calories per day

100g Protein

60+ grams of carbs

I dont measure fat but I definitely dont do low fat products

I do try to limit processed sugar ( dont limit fruits, use stevia)

Congratulations to you!! What a journey. Just an FYI: 60 grams of carbs would definitely be considered low carb. I also have never done low fat and never have any "diet" products. Good Luck with those last few pounds.

My goal is 24.8 BMI! I can't wait to be there!! I'm only 3 weeks post-op...but I'm excited to see where this change takes me.
