Good luck everyone! I am already counting down the days until the 25th. :)

I am impressed at how filling these Protein Shakes are. Mine have around 40 g of Protein each as I am using 2 scoops of Body Fortress powder. :biggrin:

Of course, it helps that I am allowed to eat one meal a day, too. I can eat all the green vegetables I want so I snack occasionally on celery and broccoli. I don't have to do liquids exclusively until after surgery (for 2 weeks after).

Me too I am allowed one meal a day as well so technically not on all liquids. That's cool you're allowed unlimited green veggies not me.

Anyhow, let me know if you need anything.

I'm Lacey. :tt1: I'm 23, and I live in St. Louis, MO. I'm a second-year medical student, so I basically have no life. :party: In my "free time," I'm planning a wedding for March 21 of next year--so I'd love to be at/around goal by the first of the year so I can get my wedding dress altered to fit beautifully and show off my new body!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
