Accepting reality



Recommended Posts

Accepting that the changes are real is a fight at times. Our perceptions are so much in our minds. I had sleeve surgery on 7/26. I'm down 32 pounds since then and 72 over all. I'm deeply grateful and humbled and what is happening to me.20170929_145202.jpg

You look fabulous, and I totally agree with you. Sometimes I look in the mirror and can't believe the changes I'm going through - is this real? Have I really gone down 3 dress sizes? Did I really walk that far without getting out of breath? I too feel so grateful and love the changes that are happening to me and what's to come.

Wow. I was sleeved a week before you and have only lost like 18 lbs since surgery. You look great! Finally only now my yoga pants are getting too big. I need to be happy with my steady and very slow loss but your pics are makin me jealous!

I too am thrilled that I'm getting smaller though. I love my sleeve.

You are doing great! And you are so right about how much of this is a mindset thing. I never would have imagined being satisfied and happy with so little food on my plate, but I just feel so good. I have a long way to go, but I know we can do this!

We are all so different...I wish we were more similar so we know what to expect. Keep hanging in there. It is all so worth it!

      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.
