How much is your weight now? starting weight? If you need to kick start your

weightloss, I would suggest doing 3 protiens a day and lots of water..and

WALK WALK WALK. praying for ya though! ((((HUGS))))

My starting weight was 299 lbs and now I am at 214lbs

3 protein drinks and water only?? I walk a little now but will

really

need to pick it up a bit!

Thanks for the sugguestion!

you know my dr told me yesterday that it was bad for me to live on liquids

only. Even if it was a protein shake that had everything in it i could

need, and if i was taking a multivitamin.

He said same thing Vitalady says.. 1 meal 2 shakes.. he said i should be

consuming real food of some sort each day.

Please people, don't let the excitement of losing weight make you eat

unhealthy. Going from overeating to undereating is not the way to do this!!

Check with your dr.

btw, the entire reason this all came up for me is that I have been throwing

up all solid foods, and basically living off of liquids only, soups, protein

drinks, water, crystal light, etc. My doctor has ordered an upper GI, i

have it at 9:15 tomorrow morning, they are checking for a stricture also, or

that possibly my pouch is too small, etc.

Will know something by tomorrow..

Hi mikki, the bariatric treatment center has you on clear liquads first 2 weeks

then you go to all liquads (this includes puddings and jellos) the next two

weeks then pureed then soft and finilly regular food...the liquad diets is so

your stomach can heal. (if you had open)...I had mine april 16th, open rny and I

am doing good, they also have you do your breakfast, lunch and supper and you

have 3 snacks during the day..

When did you have your surgery?

[Guest guest]

- You can still eat 3 small meals, but make sure they do not contain any

milk or sugar. Watch the natural sugars in fruit. Perhaps making these changes

will give your weight loss a boost, too. Good luck.

Also I have been told that sometimes we stop at a weight we were once at for a

long time and kinda hang on that number but it does move again
