I lost 50 lbs pre-op -- I try to keep my carbs under 40 grams per day, and usually eat between 800-1000 calories a day most of which are from Protein. That's it!

I try to do 30 minutes of Jillian Michaels workout during the week...

Not really...I started in July after my first NUT appointment and I had a Protein Shake for Breakfast, 4oz of lean Protein and veggies for lunch and dinner. Then 3 weeks before surgery I switched to a shake for Breakfast, a shake for lunch and 4oz of lean Protein & veggies for dinner. I had lost exactly 50lbs by the time I went for my final pre-op appointment with my surgeon.

Super I am not going to try to break the 200lb barrier. I am 6' 5" and my goal weight would be about 215lb. However I broke the 280 mark for the first time in 13 years also yesterday. My Surgery was May 21st and I was 318lbs

It is a great feeling to see that the hard work of the restrictive diet get results. It gives you inspiration to stay the course.

Nice going

      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.
