I was told Protein shakes for Breakfast and lunch then swig the magnesium citrate at 2pm. Then it's Clear Liquids only until midnight. After midnight nothing ... not even sips for meds. I finally wrapped up work and can totally start focusing on the procedure and my new lifestyle. Now that I've started the bowel prep, it's starting to seem more real.

Excellent ~ Thanks for the link! -
Had my pre-op labs done today. My to-do list is complete ... Now all we have is surgery next Tuesday ... Yeah, it's finally here

Thanks for sharing!

Yes. I believe Atkins calls them Net Carbs; whereas, Protein Power call them ECC :-)

Having trouble drinking all the protein Shakes, anyone found protein pills?
LowCho replied to coreyandbrett's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I've used protein pills before (Whey To Go); however, I'm still pre-op. I don't know how anyone could take these post-op b/c they're huge. -
Because I'm a diabetic, I count ECC (effective carb count) which is carbs - fiber. For an ECC of 1, this product is worth it for me.

What is WRONG with me!
LowCho replied to hopeandfaith's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm going through this, right now. I lost 30 lbs on my own before seeing the surgeon and I was doing great. After my first appt, I was told to stop losing weight b/c my BMI is on the low side. I spent the last 1-1.5 months not worrying about what I ate and now I'm trying to get back on track. Boy is this hard. Much harder than I thought it would be. With me, it's a mindset. I just have to get my head back on straight. Best of luck! -
Excellent news ... congrats!
