I started at 230, with a lot of comorbidity due to over weight.

I'm starting at 230!! I really hate that number!! My nutritionist said a goal of 150 is good for me, but my personal goal is 125. I will be happy at 150 though. Shoot, I'll be happy to be below 200 at this point!!

Congratulations on your success. You will lose that 19 pounds!! Good luck dear!!

thanks, my personal goal is to be 135, but the doc goal is 140, and now that I'm at 157, at 5 months out, I don't want to lose much more than 140. Keep us posted on your progress.

Great job! How do you stop losing when you reach goal? Do you have to intentionally increase calories? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question it's just a concern I have pre-op.

No question is to dumb to ask, yes, I will increase my calorie intake and build muscles.

      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.
