HOW LONG IT TOOK AND WHERE I STARTED-

I started in November 2017, my appointments went quickly. I was held back by not doing well enough in nutrition classes. My surgery is scheduled for July 25, 2018. That's 8 months of waiting.

Real Meat not Soy

I was eating vegan chicken nuggets and patties. My surgeon told me the soy breaks down faster and causes a spike in blood sugar which is what was making me crave carbs. So I’m eating regular nuggets and patties when I need the quick meal. I’m still using my zero calorie bbq sauce.

And Laura it is only,1 day and 18 hours until,my,own surgery, then I will join you.Shelley,and all the rest in the Victory Longue sitting on one of the Losers Benchs and good news , I lost weight before,i lost my,mind, it was neck''and-neck for awhile. Lost over 15 pounds in August alone thanks to the liver-shrinking diet.

321.6-1 more pound to 40 lbs lost (4 week mark)

Sorry- 6 week mark

So, it’s been 6 days since my last post. I have not lost any weight because I stopped food journaling. So, I restarted today and am hoping for some results. I also skipped a workout last week. I need to stay on top of everything. However, I did lose two inches in my thighs since my last measurement so the gym is definitely paying off.

Yes, I was eating the morning star ones. He said it would be better to eat real meat nuggets than vegan.

Food items:

I’ve been eating pirogies for an occasional meal and peanut butter pretzels as a snack sometimes. Both of them have protein if you are looking for other options and you’re not worried about carbs.

HAIR LOSS

So, I just wanted to post that my hair has just started to fall out. I’m 7 weeks out from surgery but 9 weeks out from liquid diet. So that’s pretty much the two month point. I’ve heard it’s between 1-3 months when hair loss starts. So far it hasn’t been too bad. My hair is really thick and healthy. I’ve read you loose about 30% so I’m not that worried. I’m definitely interested in that scalp spray if needed. Oh and my skin has cleared up a lot. I have so much less acne now. It’s great! My personal training is going well. I still haven’t dropped weight. I forgot to get on the scale today so maybe I’ll see it tomorrow.
