No such thing, really. Some MDs talk abot percentage of excess weight lost... Follow your plan and you WILL lose weight. That is for sure! I am a slow loser, and at 9 months I've lost 110# (started at 423# and 6'2"). I am still losing, very slowly. I am focused on the food PLAN and the activity PLAN and let the pounds take care of themselves. You will do GREAT!!!

There is no average.. Its been 9+ months for me and ive dropped 200lbs! thats fast. SO there is truly no normal weight loss. Makes a difference if your a guy or a gal. etc etc .. How much you work out. How strict you are etc etc

Hi Butterfly, my height is also 5'4, and I weighed 284 pounds. After 3 months I had lost 50 pounds. But like they said above, everyone is different, but as long as you stick to the plan, you will lose weight. Of course there will be stalls/plateaus along the way, but that is normal.

1-3 pounds a week and your surgeon will be happy.

      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.
