Low carb,low fat diet!

Add Protein shakes to ur diet to get all the Protein you can!

Water only and tea/coffee only once in awhile!

Limit your sugar and excercise daily

Switch up your rountine!

Eat colorful! I eat lots of veggies.

Sounds pretty intense but after 2 weeks your body gets use to the diet and excercise and u feel off if u don't excercise and you don't crave high fat foods like you use too!

Make sure you do some weight training during your weight loss!

Muscle burns fat and also it will help on having loads of skin!( I still have skin tho)

I allow myself a cheat meal!

Only every so often but I plan

It so I feel much more in control rather than just giving in to temptations!

      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.
