I had a fatty liver before surgery. I probably have a super morbidly obese one now! Shar

Marcia my son has a fatty liver and his liver enzymes were threw the roof and they send us to ucla to have him evaluated and they said being he is morbid obese it will take time to reverese the effects of the fatty liver and they said eating a low fat diet and weight loss will reduce the fatty liver but for them they were worried about the liver panal not the fack his liver was fat. his numbers have improved over time but they are still very eleveted. they did say no drinking alcohol or coffee and watch tylenol consumption and drink lots of water will help but just losing weight will help the liver to function better, they said they only worry about liver enzymes if it triples they told me . His only went 2 1/2 times Lisa

Marcia, sorry to hear about this. It makes sense though. As we lost weight, we forced our livers to do some heavy duty processing of everything. I know when my blood tests came back at my one year appt that my liver enzymes were elevated. Not enough to freak out but not normal either. MY Dr just plans on waiting to see how things work out since he felt that alot was related to flushing so much fat thru my system in a relatively short amount of time. Best of luck!

Yikes Inky.. So much I can tell u and warn u about the ups downs of surgery I am still recoverring and may have to go in next month and rotate my arm under a general. This morning I AM 201.4 Yestersay 200.8 the up down up down is driving me crazy.. I got down to 204 and then had my shoulder shurgery and sky rocketed to 214 and went up down and after 3 mos of the battle the scale moved pass 204 So 2011 is looking realistic to be 199 LOL UGHi!! I am sooooooooooo frustrated I bet that bench is really shinny with your hinney but we don't want it to slicky I would hate to accidently Slip back the 200 bench. I am gonna apply super glue when I get there .Then the next step is staying put I think i will relax a bit when I reach 195. One day this is gonna make a good weight loss story tell then one day I am gonna remember this and the foot knawing getting to 199 Opps better stop eating my foot has to many calories Lisa

Ohhh I should use my arms to dust it off? Heck, i was just sliding back and forth on my hiney keeping it shiny for you (look, I made a little poem!) I swear to all the cupcakes on the planet that the time around 200-203 was THE. MOST. FRUSTRATING. EVER. You know how long it took me, it's a real B&*%H! just keep doing what you do and it'll come down, honest. Inky p.s. mri states I have a small full thickness tear of the rotator cuff and a bone spur that isn't helping matters at all. I see the orthopedic surgeon next thursday.
