I need to lost 20lbs in 3 weeks



Recommended Posts

Had surgery December 30th and I lost a total of 23 lbs in the month of January. I am now 189. I know I won't lose a lot because I was never huge according to my doc. Anyways I have a bridal shower on the 23rd of February and I just ordered my favorite dress online in size LARGE since that was the biggest size they had. I work out at the gym 3 times a week since I work full time and go to school full time. I do wake up early like 5am every day so I thought I can do some DVD workouts at home on Monday to Friday. I really need to lose 20lbs because I am scared my dress won't fit. I eat very healthy so hopefully I'll be able to do it :/ so nervous and this will be a huge party. Wish me luck

Don't put too much stress on yourself..going to school and working full time seems like a very hectic schedule, plus upping your exercise routine. . U may have lost more inches than u realize. Fingers crossed.

No my waist is still 46in I did lose my bra size from 40-36.. I need to lose some weight from my tummy because the dress is fitted and don't want to look like a prego girl haha.

Yes I always tend to keep my plate full. I have to workout more. I walk for an hour during my lunch Monday to Friday and gym Friday to Sunday but now I want to add DVD workout at 5am for Monday to Friday

I've lost 73 pounds and I still carry the pregnant tummy look. Granted its smaller becuase I've lost so much weight..but its still there under all my clothes.

I know that a couple of the vets have stated that the biggest part of you is always the last to go down.

Keep working it honey....you sound like youre pretty determined so I'm guessing you'll be close. Maybe wear some Spanx under the dress if its close?

      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.
