Guest Gettin'Skinny Posted July 25, 2003 WONDERFUL weight loss! How are you doing it? I'm 3 weeks post-op and I haven't lost a pound since the first week. What am I doing wrong? Melly:confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LynnBandit Posted July 25, 2003 Use these rules: Protein first... Veggies second... A dab of carbs, if you still have room. Stop when you're full. 60-70 ounces of Water per day. Never get hungry! It's great! I even occasionally splurge, and still lose weight. By splurge, I mean eat something sweet. I've gone down 8 inches in the waist, 2 shirt sizes, and 3 suit sizes. My shoes are even loose! LB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
