Today, I am no longer morbidly obese. I've lost 40 lbs. since I've been banded. This is not typical. Normally people lose at a much slower rate.
I think I'm losing as fast as I am because I'm not eating much of anything. I might be getting about 300 to 500 calories per day which is far less than the recommended 2500 calories. It also helps that I'm a man. Men lose weight faster than woman because men have more muscle than women.
I haven't done much of anything except follow the liquid protein diet, drink lots of water and try to stay active.
This is my first mini goal. My next mini goal is to hit 299 lbs. At the rate I'm going, I should achieve this by early February.
