10kg (22lbs) off a 'healthy' BMI!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I was sleeved on October 15 so I'm officially 6 months out and have lost 40kgs (88lbs). I'm so excited to be this close to a healthy BMI something I've never been before and I'm now within 10kg (22lbs) of this goal!

Is anyone at this point now or has anyone successfully hit goal and can share some advice and their experiences?? I am finding it difficult to drop now that I'm so close - yet so far!! I'd love to lose another 15kg even to bring me right down to something I'm happy with :-)

Also I feel a bit 'melted'...as in my skin is so elastic and stretchy - does this get better with time???

Getting hungry these days too... :-/ come on motivation!!!

I was sleeved 3 weeks after you and also down 40kg exactly! I have another 9kg to a healthy weight! I would also like to lose about 15kg more and then maintain ... how are u feeling?? Bet you're getting a heap of complliments :) I feel my confidence has improved but still see a fat person in the mirror!

From what I have heard the skin will def tighten up over a year of two. I strength train and have found it a big help!

Also feeling hunger and sugar cravings too ... GRRR. How fast are u losing now??

      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.
