How's Everyone Doing?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I haven't been on here in forever and just wanted to say hello and ask how everyone was doing.

How's everyone handling their journeys with everything going on?

For me, the journey's been a challenge. I lost my job because of COVID and have had to take an assortment of temp jobs as result. This has made being able to afford supplements and Protein Powder difficult. But I'm still losing, and that's all that matters to me. I can't believe I'm almost down a hundred pounds since starting my journey (I started the pre-op diet last July)!

Another challenge I've noticed is that there's SO MANY foods I can no longer tolerate. A part from the Protein Shakes, the only sources of Protein I can keep down without getting sick are lightly seasoned or canned chicken and Beans. Although on my allowed foods list, tuna almost killed me and I can forget red meat and pork. I bought the recommended lean cuts and still got sick.

Most raw vegetables and fruits make me sick too. Ugh. It's frustrating! Maybe things will get better over time?

Anyways, I hope this is finding everyone staying safe and well during these crazy times. ❤️ you all!

      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.
