I lost 30 Pre-op and the rest after my surgery. I've slowed down to about 10 pounds per month...but if I stick to my diet...I lose around 5-6 pounds per week. I didn't eat bread and eats lots of protein...salads etc. now I find myself snacking more or eating too many carbs. My weakness is Starbucks double shot energy drink..210 calories!

Ate lots of protein**

Also, if you have kids...try not to buy them "junk" food...I get too tempted when it's around the house. I've slacked off the gym this month but when my semester is finished at school, I'll be going back like I used to. I do only about 10-30 of cardio and strength training afterwards. Muscle is what speeds up the metabolism. I am 5'9" and heaviest was 295...now I'm 193.

      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.
