4-month surgiversary



Recommended Posts

Well today is my 4-month surgiversary and I've lost exactly 40 pounds. It was a slow start, and I've had my fair share of challenges and stalls, but I'm excited about my success. I've got 35 pounds to go to reach my goal of 165 pounds. I'd like to know how you're progressing.

congrats! just curious about your stalls and how often they happened. i'm a few days away from being 2 months out and I'm already in my 2nd stall. I had 1st stall after week 1 and it lasted for 3 or 4 weeks Idk cuz I quit weighing. when I did weigh I lost 10 pounds. Now I finally weighed 2 weeks later and lost nothing. So this has been my 2nd stall. It makes no sense.

I had my first stall at week 3 and it lasted 3 weeks. I'm just getting over my second 3-week stall. I've learned that when I stall, it's usually because I need to add more calories. I've recently started eating six times a day. I'm taking in about 900-1000 calories and getting in at least 75 grams of Protein.

I'm 3.5 months out and I've lost 51 pounds since surgery 10/2 and 61 pounds since my preop appt 9/23. I started pretty slow but my weight loss has been picking up as of late. I have to admit the 2 and 3 week stalls really test your mind and spirit. I just usually curse at the scale and wait it out! LOL!

I had my sleeve 9/17. It's nice to see how other at 4 months are doing. I seem to be a stair step looser. Loose, stall, loose, stall. It can be so frustrating.

      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.
