Recommended Posts

Hi I had my surgery July 19,2013 and it went very well. My starting weight was 187 after pre op 176 first dr appt after surgery 164. Not sure what my weight is now until my next dr appt Aug 23,2013. I am very happy of how many sizes I've dropped in this little amount of time:)

I lost most of my weight in the first 4months( I lost 100lbs, my surgery date was 1/29/13) Now I'm losing a pound or two a week, I've lost another 18lbs in the last month & a half. I hate that it's coming off so slow now, but at least I'm not gaining. I have a very hard time with exercise because I have RA that has destroyed my knees & they need to be replaced. Keep up the good work & you'll be at your goal before you know it! Peace, Mary

I have R.A. as well. Although the dr said visually my r.a. has not started being active. No swelling etc. My blood work shows continually I have it! As well fibromyalgia. My right knee clicks when I extend it but no swelling. I have 30lbs to lose for my goal weight. I had my surgery a few wks ago:) Are you on any R.A. meds that you find work well. And do you think getting on meds to prevent issues help?

      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...

        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.
