stevencornell69 107 Posted May 5, 2016 And down a solid 40lbs! It doesn't seem real. The last time I weighed this amount I had starved myself and worked out 4x week for at least 1.5 hours. Only to gain it back. Unfortunately I had an ankle injury 5 days post op. Good news, 40lbs with ZERO work out haha. Next week I am cleared for all levels of weight training so that will change. My most difficult part is adjusting to portion size, and not drinking Water so soon after I eat. FYI: telling no one about surgery. My line is "hypnosis and acupuncture". Sell it baby!

jaxmom 644 Posted May 5, 2016 Hypnosis and acupuncture. My god. I love it. I'm going to start practicing saying it in the mirror with a straight face right now.

stevencornell69 107 Posted May 6, 2016 Honestly the first couple of weeks I just tried to drink the shakes and crystal lite to get as much Fluid and Protein as possible. Probably didn't hit the goal of 60+ grams per day. On mushies I ate anything that sounded good. Chilli, retried Beans, bbq beef or chicken that is suuuuper soft. And Protein Bars. I haven't avoided carbs etc. if it sounds goods good and it's soft enough I eat it. I have no problem with sugar etc it appears. Good or bad, this is my journey.
