Im still around

Hey everyone
Well as yall know I was supposed to loose weight but didn't. I actually gained some weight. Uggh. Well last Tuesday I decided to go to the weight loss clinic. I guess as a way of accountability. I figured if I pay 500 dollars a month I'm going to do as I am told. Tomorrow will be a week. My starting weight last Tuesday was 186.5. This morning when I weighed I was 172.2. So I have been sticking to the starvation diet. lol Honestly, I should be starving but I'm not de to the appetite suppressants. I get 4 oz of meat 3 times a day. I get 2 servings of vegetables and 2 servings of fruits( has to be grapefruit, apple, strawberries or oranges) a day. That's all. I figure if I do the diet strict for the 28 days I will have lost a lot the weight I needed to loose and then can eat like a normal human.

Anyways that's all. yes im still working.

Are you also taking protein supplements, so you don't end up protein deficient before surgery? Because that's not enough protein for a DSer.

You lost over 14 lbs in a week? Was some of the weight fluid retention? Because that's what it looks like.

Be very careful on that diet. You make sure you get plenty of protein.

If its any consolation, I feel like thats a summary of my life thus far.

Though I am not yet dser, Ive been on those types of programs before. I know how hard they are, so I wish you the best.

Yes and more than likely.. i had normally held at 175 no matter what i ate or drank..In the last 2 weeks I went up to 186.so the scale says 14 but I feel like I only lost the true 3 pounds from 175 to 172. in gonna have labs done this week and try for surgery around 2nd week in November. i think between now and then with the no carbs or dairy i can loose at least 30 pounds. thats about a total if 8 weeks. i can do it!
