  1. I also eat Dannon Light &Fit, 80 calories, 12 grams of protein )breakfast), snack is a protein shake (70 calories, 15 grams protein), lunch was a slice ham and slice cheese rolled up, snack is apple and then supper usually 3 oz chicken and veg. Sometimes I forget to eat also....
  2. I'm going to try and answer some of your questions. I'm four weeks out. I too had a portion control problem and would OFTEN snack at night after everyone else went to bed. My husband is an awesome cook and having seconds was completely normal for me. So what is it like now? I look forward to mealtime! Especially dinner. I physically cannot eat like I used to. There's just no room. Your body will tell you if your eating too fast or too much. For me personally, my back starts to ache bad and gets increasingly worse until I throw up. Because of this, I've learned rather quickly to stop eating when my back STARTS to hurt. There's always tomorrow!!! I love spicy food too. Right now I'm in the puréed stage but I'm looking forward to regular food. On a side note, I've lost 26 pounds in 3.2 weeks and I'm feeling great!

    help please

    I think she means weeks out. Eventually they will want you to rely on food for all your nutrients. Some people still supplement with shakes anyways. I'm 4 weeks out and I'm still required to drink 2 shakes a day.
  4. Ask him. That's what I did. A simple phone call.

    37 day liquid diet

    Wow! I've never heard of a pre-op liquid diet being so long! The good news is that the shakes will keep you satisfied. Buy gum?

    Counting down the minutes

    I'm scheduled for feb 11th also. Pre-op diet has been easy for me because I am so sick with a cold, diahreah, even developed a hemorrhoid. I haven't even been able to drink my shakes. I'm supposed to have 4 a day. Today I had one. I'm trying to drink a lot of water because I don't want to become dehydrated. Hoping to feel better, this SUCKS!
  9. Hi, I'm Terry. I'm 5 feet tall with a starting weight of 260. Starting pre-op diet on Monday - will be sleeved on Feb. 11th.
