Hey Shellebelle, I'm seven months post-op and have lost 663lbs. I feel I have hit a plateau, do you have any suggestions to overcome this?

While I was losing I only plateaued two months in a row. I increased my Protein. I snacked on turkey with homemade low cal dip and it really helped.

@Ladybug28 your surgery is day before mine. :D Are you surviving the liquid diet?

Hi...sorry I missed your post! I actually had my surgery on Mar 22...liquids weren't too bad, didn't have to think much about what to have, that's for sure! I was on liquids two weeks before surgery and 4 weeks after. So far I'm down 42 pounds. I've had my first fill although I don't feel any extra restriction yet. The key is to follow your doctors orders and stay positive. Good luck on your journey. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
