  • Okay. Here's a little reality check. The lower the BMI, the slower you will lose. Those of you with 40 or below BMI as a rule will not lose as much weight the first month as those of you with 40 or

  • OK! I just have to say it! I am jealous. I know all the right things, we all lose at our own rate, it is not a race, you cant't eat 600 calories a day and not lose, etc. Yada, yada, yada! I went from

I am down 13 since friday

This is so exciting to hear. I came home from hospital today so I still have that 10 lb Fluid gain but hearing so many of you lost 20 lbs in one month is inspiring! Way to go!

What did you all start out at ? Dr told me the more that you weigh the more you lose at first . The less you weigh you will lose less amounts at once .

That makes total sense to me. I started at 272 and lost 32 lbs prior to surgery so was 240 at surgery. I'm wondering what my weight will be once this surgery Fluid leaves my body and I have another few weeks of liquid only. My goal is 140 although i would be filled with joy to even get to 160.

First day home from hospital so it is early to bed for me. Hope you are doing well.

Hi Marylou

It helped me to mix the Protein powder with the Gatorade so that I got protein and carbs together. You will get used to it -- just keep sipping whenever you are awake.

There is a clear liquid flavored drink I think called isopure at gnc that has 40 grams of protein!
