Leederz 49 Posted April 6, 2012 I am about to have surgery soon. And would love to achieve your success. Would like to know how was your pre op diet? Any Protein shakes you would recommend? What was your starting weight? How tall are you? Where are you from? How old are you? How has the loose skins been for you? Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions Well my 2 week pre op diet was 2 shakes and a low carb meal I usually just ate a salad or meat and veggies. The Protein Shakes I recommend are body fortress from Walmart. If u mix them with unsweetened almond or soy milk it's 30 g Protein per serving and they're only $15 for a 2 lb tub. My starting weight when I went to the doc for the first time was 267 this at the start of my 6 month supervised diet. I'm 5'3 1/2 lol from Orlando. As far as loose skin... Now that I'm losing faster I do see some problem areas. I do strength training with light weights, Zumba, Pilates and I have my own recipe for moisturizing and stretch marks. This one is up in the air tho I guess only time will tell how my skin reacts but I know I'm doing all I possibly can to help it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
