Hi Kelly,

My diet consists of around 800 calories a day, at least 64oz of Water and usually more, 80+g of Protein and limit myself to 45 carbs a day and I never exceed 15 carbs at each of my three main meals and if you don't use them all, you can't bank them. Just think of it as a switch that you can never turn on and if you go over 15 carbs at a sitting it turns them switch on. Regarding exercise, I usually go to the gym Monday thru thursday and walk or do the elliptical for 30 minutes and work on arm, leg and ab machine. There is no secret, I'm just following my doctor's orders and it seems to be working. I hope this helps! 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.
