So, my RNY was August 8th of this year. I started seeing the dietician and had my first health check visit 12/15/15, so almost 1 year ago. I started at 496 pounds. Yesterday I had an appointment and weighed in at 353. I'm 143 pounds down over about a year since I started my journey. I'd like to go about another 75 pounds. If I hit that mark, I'll be the weight I was as a junior in high school. I'm currently 42. I hope everyone else is having success with their journeys as well!!post-297227-14814035222584_thumb.jpg

You are doing GREAT!! Good for you!! I am also an RNYer. One of the very best things I ever did for myself!! Here are my STATS: HW 249( this time I had weighed 285#'s earlier just almost a year before) SW 232 LW 117 CW 125#'s. I have gained so much besides just the weight loss. I use to be on 12 different medications including shots 2 times a day for Diabetes. I got off all diabetic meds right away after my surgery. I am on less than 1/2 of my high blood pressure meds. I now take 4 meds plus my Vitamins. I can walk for my exercise. I walk 4 to 5 times a week and walk 4 to 5 miles each time I go!! So everything that I went thru was so TOTALLY worth it!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

      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...

        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.
