Ok friends..I'm leaving very early tomorrow...

I'll be back to update after the 14th (when I get back).

I'm getting a little discouraged. Since I 'only' need to lose 71 pounds, it seems it will come off slowly. However, once it comes off it will STAY off.

I am jumping the gun...I know.

My body confuses me so much. This whole past 2 weeks I've been in ketosis and only lost 10 pounds. One day I'd gone down to 13 pounds lost, but then it went back up!?!?!?

:scared0:

10 lbs is AWESOME! I have been unofficially pre-op dieting (practicing) for almost a month. Lost 10 lb. Now granted, my doctor allows me to have real food during the pre-op diet and I have cheated a few times, but not many. Good luck and keep us updated when you can.

      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.
