Congratulations....it may be (seem) like a long journey...but it will be worth it... you are so lucky you are taking control of this while you are still young... this will help with the loose skin and tone, for sure!

I wish I had done this YEARS ago myself...

Good luck to you...

This is about you, so don't worry about what people say. This is your life and you can always make new friends. Good luck, I am thankful to have finally had this surgery and feel good about myself.

Wow... sorry to hear you are getting that B.S. Some people are so judgemental. It's ignorance really. It is NOT easy. It's the most effective *long term* treatment out there for obesity. Congratulations to you for going for it!

YOU need to be the informed one...many people don't realize that it is still WORK, and this is just a tool.

Obesity is a disease...it is documented as such since June 2013, which shows how we have progressed :(

If someone hasn't lived your life, they don't know what you have gone thru... so just take their "opinions" and move on... you can do this for YOU!!!

first step is having the surgery. the skin removal comes a while from now. from what I understand the easiest way of getting insurances to pay for it is to have all the rashes and stuff documented. the one problem I have with that is I haven't had any since surgery. good luck on surgery and fast healing to you

      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.
