i think im around 15-20, and it's unbelievable.

although is anyone else nauseous as hell?  i think it's a protein drink issue, i don't think it's agreeing with.  i have my husband out right now buying a different type.  UGH

Well if we count my heavyist at my preop testing in May I have lost a whopping 17, Yes 17 pounds, I just can't believe it. I did well on the clears for 10 days!! Yes 10 whole days on clears, If not for the protein drinks I would have starved!!
Sorry you are not tolerating your protein drink, maybe you could try Syntrax Nectar choc truffle. During my preop visit, the dietian left me sample several different kinds. I purchased the choc truffle and the roadside lemonade. I don't care for the lemonade, but the choc in the magic bullet with skim milk is my saving grace. You get 35 grams of protein in 8 oz.(with milk) You can also add sugar free choc syrup if needed for more flavor. Try some!!
Congratulations to All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine was june 2nd, i have lost 20 lbs so far also.

How are you guys holding up?  I have been feeling really hungary today, i am sick of protiens already, i gotta find one i really like, i had to do something i made some sf pudding and made it really runny like milk and sipped at that, it really helped.

How have you lost 20 lbs already.  I am ready to cry!!! I had my surgery on June 4 and have only lost 1 pound.  This just doesn't seem right.  When I used to diet I would lose so much more and I was eating.  Now I'm not eating and I haven't lost much at all.....so sad.

Don't worry and for heaven sakes don't get weighed except for once a month.
I think we expect so much after it is over, I haven't been weighed yet, I had my surgery June 2nd and don't see my doctor until the 29th. I hope I am not disappointed. IF you are following the program it will come off, we each are so different. I am sure you will have a huge loss and feel better. Take good care and keep in touch.
