Increased water+protein= 11pound this week!



Recommended Posts

Ok so I just finished my second day of following your recommendations (120 oz H2o & 100+ gms protein) and I am down 3 lbs! I have also all but cut out carbs. I am going to keep with this trend, I think there's something to it. Thank you so much!

Thanks for sharing this. I am down 51 lbs in 9 weeks. I'm not complaining, but I know other people have lost a lot more. I have been really bad about getting my Water and Protein in. I haven't been eating poorly, but I have found it easy to skip meals & liquid. This is good motivation for me to start getting in my protein & water! :D

I'm eating between 800-1000 calories and between 20-50 carbs daily but only from veggies.

Wow, 3.5 liters of Water is a whole lot!

I am going to do my absolute best to get that in, how on earth tho do you stick to 800-1000 cals and get in the 120g Protein.

I need help with that I think.

By the way, I am Jen and a slow loser :-(

11kg in 10 weeks, I could cry sometimes

I am happy to report that by employing this strategy (upping Protein and water) I still can't manage to get to 120 oz. of Water, but I am getting to between 90-100 and it's working! As far as protien, I make it a point to never consume less than 100 gm /day. With these changes I am now losing about .5 lb/day. From what I understand this is great for a person that is nearly 1-1/2 yrs. out. I am so excited about this renewed progress. I can't thank you enough for sharing this Tamara S! It has literally turned my world around. My new aim is to be at goal by my birthday (May 17th). If I keep going at this rate, this is totally feasible.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
