2 different things! One makes me happy, the other not!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved in Mexico by Dr. Illan on Nov. 7 which was the best doctor and staff. But yesterday, I looked down and saw my feet for the first time over my stomach in along time. So happy!!!! Not so happy part, I'm freezing it's cold in Kentucky, I have always been able to wear big sweatshirt outside and no jacket and get by. Now, when I got outside, I dress for blizzard and in the house, I have a big fuzzy blanket all the time. It's not even snowing yet and I've not lost that much weight. I'll have to drag a heater around with me soon! My house is warm to, my kids run around in shorts!! I love the weight loss but freezing, I hate!!

haha yep get used to being cold - you don't have as much insulation and with the limited fuel (calories), your body focuses on your core temp and you'll notice your hands and feet stay cold. I had surgery in June and in late july went on a garden tour with a friend with actual temps over 100 - she was sweating and miserable and I was fine, felt warm but not unbearably hot and barely broke a sweat (which actually made me a bit nervous that I wasn't sweating!). I'll take have to put a few extra layers on clothes on the in the winter if it means I'm not sweaty and gross just stepping outside in summer!

      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...

      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.
