The day that I got the sleeve, I decided to document my journey with pictures. I took a selfie each morning so I could see the changes happening in my face. The link to the video below is my progress report. YIKES!

Great pics, glad you posted it.the difference is amazing. I am 45 and I have lost 24kgs (52 pounds). In 9 weeks, not complaining but my triple chin has turned into a crepe jowel, did you use anything to tighten you skin or are you just lucky?

You are an awesome, AWESOME woman! I have taken frequent full body selfies in my underwear....probably wont be posting those :( should have thought that idea through more lol. But I suppose for me & my husband it will be interesting at least.

I loved your lessons learned statements. You speak the truth in them all.

Congrats! All your hard work has paid off!

Thanks! I've lost a total of 97 pounds. I still can't believe that I had that much to lose!

Thanks! I did some research about tightening skin and have listed a few of them that I think have helped me.

1. Hydrate from the inside (drinking lots of water) and the outside (applying lots of lotion).

2. Don't use soap in the shower because it dries out the skin. Use a body wash instead.

3. Dry brush your skin. This one seemed a little weird but you get one of those back washing brushes at Walmart or wherever. Before you get into the shower, brush your skin with the brush. It is supposed to get rid of all of the dead skin cells.

4. coffee scrub. 3/4 cup coffee grounds, 1/4 cup brown sugar, enough olive oil to make it into a paste. Mix together and use as a scrub in the shower.

That's about it! I guess what the above didn't help with, luck filled in the rest. :-)

      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.
