hollyt 1 Posted May 11, 2015 Hello there, I've just discovered this friendly community. Tomorrow is 6 months since I had GBP, how time flies. I'm down 89 lbs from my highest, 55 since surgery. Life has taken some interesting turns, maximizing stress. I don't think I'm getting enough Protein or exercise, something I'm trying to work on. I hope to regain muscle and hair. I'm glad I had surgery, it was for lifelong health reasons. I'm just frustrated with myself for major life events interrupting my progress. My husband of 22 yrs lost over 200lbs on his own, just diet and exercise, he helped inspire me to take control of my life. We've been hit with probably the hardest times of our lives, making it difficult to focus. I think that's why I'm looking out to a community that understands and doesn't judge. Thanks for your support~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kempermorris 144 Posted May 11, 2015 89 lbs is great. Sorry your struggling a bit. Drink some Protein Shakes for extra Protein. I drink Premier Protein shakes. They have 30 grams of protein. Exercising is so important. Walking is great & working out at the gym will help as well. I'm sure you feel much better after losing 89 lbs. Keep taking those supplements. I'm 5 months post op & have lost 100lbs. I'm enjoying exercising again. Don't cheat on your diet. Good Luck to you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
