I've been so focused on all the things I'm giving up and (no surprise) found myself a bit depressed.

I made myself make.a list of all the things I will gain. Here are my top 10, what are yours?

1. Going to an amusement park and.actually being able to ride a ride.

2. Playing with my kids.

3. Being able to go on float trips without flipping the canoe everytime I move.

4. Joining a softball team again and other athletic activities.

5. Getting rid of all those meds with ugly side effects.

6. Not having to shop at *special* stores and.pay extra for my size clothes.

7. Not being afraid to have my picture made.

8. Sitting in a normal sizes chair without getting my butt stuck (or risk not fitting at all)

9. Feeling sexier and more confident.

10. Last but DEFINITELY not least....not being in pain 24/7

Doesn't it seem like doctors blame every medical problem you have on your weight? "Oh you have tumors all over your body and are bleeding from your eyes? Get on the elliptical fatty"

      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.
