I don't know if anyone else does this or not, but a friend told me to freeze a Slim Fast & eat it like ice cream. I tried it & I think it taste better & it makes me feel more satisfied than if I were to just drink it.

My Dr's office just changed my surgery date from Sept 13 to Sept 17th. I am very bummed out about it. I looks like there are a lot of us getting banded on the 17th though. I have been on liquid since last friday and have lost about 19 pounds, but i am ready for something crunchy!!!

WOW 19 lbs is GREAT! I started liquids today and I have the WORST headache ever! I am going to call it a night and go to bed just as soon as I can! I could only dream of losing 19 lbs!!!! I will change your date, at least you still will have it. Maybe the 13 would have been a bad day for the dr and something might have gone wrong. EVERYTHING happens for a reason!!!

Ok, group. I need a little pick me up. I lost 14 pounds on this liquid diet in 9 days. Stupidly, to Celebrate, I went over to a friend's house and had a no/low carb dinner with (a lot of) wine. Woke up Saturday and felt like I was in college--I couldn't stop throwing up. When all was said and done I had lost another 3 pounds (which hit my goal for getting the surgery on Sept. 18 so in a way I was glad, although severely worn out). Since Saturday, I have gained 5 pounds. I can't figure it out. I'm still on the liquid diet, doing everything the same. Why am I gaining weight?

:help:

Could it be close to the time of the month? Have you been eating some low/no carb meals? I am not sure what advice I could tell you, I hope it all comes out ok! I will be praying for you!

katmeg99-If I drink alcohol, it is a guaranteed 3-10 pounds depending on how much I drink...I think it's all the sugar turning to fat, unfortunately. Drink LOTS of Water to flush it back out.

I am on day 5 of my medifast journey to lose 20 by the 21st and I have been thinking of celebrating my 10 pounds, but you convinced me I shouldn't!

Just get back on track and you will be good to go!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
