In August I had a health scare and I wasn't supposed to exercise. Needless to say this made me slack off a bit :( Now I am trying to get back on track. I joined this group today to see if I can get motivated again for the new year!

I am down 98 lbs so far. It feels great. I started in a size 26 and just bought a size 14 last weekend. I can't remember ever being this size and feeling this good!! Exercising 4 days a week.

I am feeling good :) I wish I had more motivation to exercise though I think once I start back with that I will start dropping more weight I have been within the same 10 pounds for 5 months now so it is really frustrating. Everyone says I look like I have dropped weight recently but the scale isn't showing it and I'm not seeing it. Overall so so so happy I did this :)

Hi all. I am doing well but feeling a little down. I haven't seen my Dr in about a month because I have restriction but I am still hungry. Been up and down 3 to 4 pounds for the last several months. Lost around 60 lb since my lap-band placement on April 4, and about 20 from the pre op diet for a total of 80 so far. I've been at a plateau for about 3 months now. I was hoping my Doctor would start back up with Support groups, but after 4 months without, they finally updated the Facebook page with.....Sorry I haven't updated in a while, we just got a NEW doctor and another to start in April, and we will no longer be having Lap band support meeting. I feel like I have been dumped! Their were three meetings in total. I am very disappointed, to say the least.

      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...

      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.
