i had threw up bile 2x at week 4&5 & my nurse practioner sent me for a swallow test. life didnt go down hill right then and there, that wouldve been too easy! life literally CRUMBLED at that point. i went thru hell for a month but once it was healed, it started going uphill. thank god!

Oh wow! I needed to hear that! I'm not going to lie and say I've not been discouraged because I have - don't know why it's not just falling off! I've done good today I've not weighed at all! Ty for your advice and words! Glad your okay! How did u find out you had a leak?

Thanks Dorrie! I have to make myself drink but I'm doing better like stated in precious post! Now to get the protein! What kind of Proteins are y'all eating or drinking

I alternate between Isopure zero (40g Protein in 20oz bottle) and making the chocolate premiere Protein shake (16oz of skim milk & 1 scoop of protein powder). You can get isopure zero at Vitamin shoppe or GNC and premiere protein whey powder protein is at Walmart or Sam's club.

You said your friend is 4 months out and 79 lbs down...and used an exclamation point, so you must be thinking she is doing better than you. BUT, 79 lbs divided by 4 months is 19.75lbs/month average. You have lost 18 lbs in 2 weeks :)

Everybody's journey is their own. I think you are doing great! :)

girl stop weighing yourself
