Sometimes I wonder about "diva lil"? My eating is so all over the place. Some days I can eat 800 calories but most days I will be lucky to get 600. I'm 5 months out no hunger and I haven't experienced any "stalls" yet that I'm aware of . I don't weigh every day though, maybe 1x a week or biweekly . At my visit with my surgeon the time before this last one he said he wants me to eat 1200 calories (not gonna happen) up my carbs (no thanks) and eat 8 times a day, small amounts (Yeah right) I'm not trying to be non compliant I just can't force myself to do it ! I feel good. My labs are fabulous. I drink 80-128 oz of water a day. I am losing hair but so are people eating more ect..it's just kinda odd that it's so moody. I think most days if I didn't drink shakes or eat quest bars I could just not eat and not even miss it. For some reason my stomach will feel yucky and miserable if I eat a couple soft crab legs but I can eat a dense quest bar at a normal speed and it never hurts my stomach. I guess I'm just curious as to other people's eating habits and if you go through these stages? I'm still thrilled to death so I'm not complaining just curious.

I've noticed Mexico surgeons don't require pre op diets like US Drs ?
Elode replied to Goldy6575's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's all surgeons preference and what they were taught. I don't think there's any right or wrong way. -
It's not crazy it will help you adapt after surgery. It's not "fun" but I'm thankful I did the two weeks. I think it helped me prepare, oh and my liver Wasn't fat and in danger during surgery....keep at it.

psychology consult time
Elode replied to Okinawa girl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was scheduled for two hours. Talk time maybe 15-20 mins the rest was tests. -
Be happy your body is adjusting give it a break you will lose again.

I didn't start taking mine until after surgery but mine wasn't low. You can try something else but I would go with whatever your surgeon says.
