Was sleeved July 10th . Best decision of my life . Today is my 28th Birthday and I have never felt healthier . I am down 90 lbs from my heaviest , 70 lbs from my surgery. I finally hit a huge milestone ( for me at least ) the other day of dropping below 300 . That is very hard to post for me because I still have a lot to go and admitting what my weight was is difficult . But change is good . I am so glad I took this journey and continue to work hard each day . Congratulations to everyone else , we are all in this together !!

Thank you ! I eat grilled chicken , salmon , or tuna . I've tried a lot of other things but I try to stick to those . No bread , I don't want to trick myself into thinking I can have it so I've stayed away . I have at least a Protein Shake a day with some strawberries in it , throw it in the blender . that will help you with the liquids . I struggled through the liquid portion too it's very hard . My Protein Shakes are only 4 oz so it's easier to get down . Keep your head up it gets better but it's a hard journey , but well worth it !

70lbs since July 10?! What was your starting weight? What's your routine?? I had surgery July 3 and only lost 53 (63 from highest)

Starting weight ( eek I don't even wanna say this ) was my highest at 385. I included my preop diet I was 365 ( June 28th). Surgery weight was 351. Current is 296. My goal is 200 , maybe 215 . I'm 5'11.

I go to the gym 5-6 days a week , do interval training on the treadmill for 35 minutes 3x/ week . The other days I do cardio for 30-45 minutes either on the treadmill , stairclimber , or stationary bike ( usually a combo of all 3). Lift weights ( 20-30 lbs) 3x/ week . There's an awesome app called " running for weight loss " I use to help with the interval training .

Thank you ! And I'm glad you couldn't have guessed that lol . I've been blessed with the height and decently proportioned fat lol . It's hard getting into the groove of exercising but now I have to go, I actually enjoy it ! If you live near DC we can be gym buddies lol

You are doing a really great job. I am a Medical Assistant to a bariatric surgeron so I see sucess stories 5 days a week. I recently had the sleeve on 07/30/13 (by the surgeon I have worked beside for 2 years now) so I am 2 months out today! Keep up the great work you should be at your goal in no time! Best of luck to you!

      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.
