You're already 60% of the way there according to your ticker (6 lbs lost, with only 4 more to go!).

You can do this! Protein first every day to fill you up. Veggies after, to give you good nutrients and vitamins! Keep the carbs as low as you possibly can (especially breads, Pasta, sweets, etc.). Watch the sugars in your drinks (they are sneaky carbs!).

You can do this! I believe in you. Others here do too!

Now you have to believe in yourself............stick with it.

I agree with everything chickadee said! You CAN do this!

Go on a liquid and pureed diet! In my pre-op I lost 11 pounds (5kgs) in less than one month. I did pureed food for 3 weeks and the last week I did Protein Shakes 3 times a day for a whole week. It is not very hard. You surely can do this - just 4 pounds - dont lose hope!!

I'm so glad! Some days, it's just hard to keep up your motivation....but the great thing about life is that a fresh new day is coming! And then you get to start all over again!
