You are doing great. Remember a lost is still a lost and everybody's body is different. As far as calories you should speak to your doctor on what your goal should be. My doctor made it priority that I eat Protein first, lots of Water and my Vitamins. She said have 3 meals and 1 snack if needed. And never eat and drink so I can stay fuller longer. I can say some days I knock it out of the park with all 3 and other days I fall short with the protein or the liquids. Good luck my friend.

Down 50 yesterday from surgery! I'm calling it officially 216, though, since I bounce up and down by up to two pounds... but the trend is always, always down.

So 3 months, 50 lbs. I am so very happy with this rate!

      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.
