foodstampchamp 3 Posted January 4, 2007 CHOOO CHOOOOOO!!! Ok...conductor is back. Who is doing the Soup with me? I am going out this weekend to replenish my stock. I have to say I am brilliant (in my own mind) for learning to freeze bandster portions of this and keeping it around for a quick snack and full meals. I am doing 6 meals a day, and this soup is perfect for one or many of my meals. I have also added Protein powder to the soup to make sure that i am getting a good amount of Protein into each serving. How is everyone doing? I know that I have lost a lot, and am keeping it off, unlike what most of the nay-sayers have said would happen. So how is it going for you? how much have you lost on this diet in how much time. I am planning on starting this tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

salsa1877 10 Posted July 31, 2007 My doctor does not require a pre-op diet unless he determines at the consultation that the liver is too fatty. My problem is that my consultation is scheduled the DAY BEFORE my surgery. I am a teacher so if I don't have this surgery on the Aug 9 schedule date I have to wait until Christmas (grrr). So my question is, has anyone successfully used this as a pre-op diet? I tried drinking just drinking slimfast shakes today and thought I was going to rip my boyfriends hands off when he was eating dinner! Any advice would be great!

angel bear 2 Posted July 31, 2007 I've been on this before and it worked great - any weight reduction before your surgery is a bonus so if you want to try it - what do you have to lose? (HA HA) Starting any pre-op diet is difficult but if you get yourself into the right mind set you can do it. I did straight yogurt for 2 weeks (I am sick of yogurt even to this day 11 months later) but I did it as well as lots of others on the site. Good luck and welcome aboard!

demsvmejm 5 Posted August 6, 2007 I started this diet yesterday. Had to eat out last night so I thought the cabbage Soup from Big Boy would be pretty close. Ate fruit and soup. Today is harder, ate 1/3 cup of soup for bkfst. (i'm tight in the a.m.) eating canned carrots cause the raw ones go down a little harder. I didn't read the instructions well enough and I ate 1/2 a banana last night. OOps! I'm worried about my Protein, any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magii 0 Posted August 7, 2007 Hi Mary....I'm on day 2 today and must say I didn't have Breakfast today, a bit early for Soup, I had some at 11am. I am not going to worry about my Protein this week and thought if I do it next week I might add some meat to the soup, don't know if I will be able to stick to the diet next week as I go for a fill on tuesday, I might make the soup a blend it to liquid, don't worry about the banana it wont hurt. Day 2 196.24lbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
demsvmejm 5 Posted August 7, 2007 Well I'm down 2.5 lbs. from Sunday. I'll be honest and I have cheated. I couldn't stand it any longer and had 5 reduced fat wheat thins last night! I'm sure glad I didn't have a pre-op diet to follow before surgery, not sure I could have made it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magii 0 Posted August 8, 2007 my weight was the same today, I haven't cheated yet, I am determined to get some weight off before my holiday in November. I didn't have a pre-op diet either luckily as I think I would have cheated too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
