After thinking which surgery I will do , I finally decided to go with sleeve. The band is too much maintence. My nutrionalist knows my decisión and should the surgery sometime in May or June. She wants me to start the diet now, but I get get going with It, any helpful honda would help, and a example menú would be great!

My spelling is horrible. I meant to say in my previous post that my nut wants to start my pre op diet. Having trouble getting started. Any samples of what I should do? Thanks

Did you NUT give you a plan? I was told to start increasing Protein (20 grams per meal) and decrease carbs. I personally have started drinking Protein Shakes in the morning and if needed another one later in the day as a snack. I found the Premier Protein shakes at costco are pretty good. I have all but eliminated pasta/rice/breads and get the majority of my carbs from fruits and veggies. My calories should be between 1300-1400 a day. Sometimes I can't get that high. I have been doing some sort of exercise at least three days a week for 20 minutes. I literally drag my butt out if bed at 5am to do this. The last bit of advise - track what you eat. I haven't lost anything in 2 weeks. I've gone back to tracking and the scale has finally started to move again. I use MyFitnessPal, but even a pen and paper would work.
