6 months Post Op: 191

2 days ago I was 196, yesterday I went back to the basics. What I mean is, I went on my full liquid diet from post op. but incorporated clear and full liquids.

9am-12pm sipped on Isopure 40 grams of Protein

2pm miso Soup

3pm sugar free Italian ices

5:30-6:30 pm sipped on 2 Atkins shakes (20 total grams of protein)

8pm 1 sugar free ice pop

I sipped on Water and unsweetened ice tea all day.

At 10pm, I did have 2 egg whites, only bc my husband said a was cranky! Lol I was!! Then I passed out!!!

This morning 191!!!!!

This can and will be done!! Go with what you know!

Interesting. Thank you for the detailed post. I'm stuck at around 230 and have been for weeks or months it seems. Thinking about going back like you did.

I was 196 on March 22, 2013. That three month break I took was way too long! It wasn't a stall bc I knew what I was doing wrong! Trust me you can do this! This is far from easy but possible!

Down to 190 this morning! I don't feel hungry either! Just slightly cranky and visually everything looks yummy, which I'm used to dealing with from immediately after surgery.

Hoping to get into the 180's this week!

Isopure isn't bad, slightly gritty, I try to get it down in the morning but you could sip on it all day. Try to get it done so it's out of the way. As far as Exercise ill b honest has been minimal. Literally 20 minutes a day bc I'm not consuming many calories. Hope that helps! Please let me kno if u have anymore questions.

      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.
