You've lost 160 pounds, and have had your plastics, sounds to me like you don't need any help! But if you are only 2 weeks out from plastics, I imagine your surgeon gave you recommendations? I would also imagine that if you weren't given suggestions, that common sense would tell you to eat easily digestible foods that won't make going to the bathroom complicated right now after the TT. Basically, return to mushies phase.

I am a planner and a tracker. I think it's ingrained in me from years of WWs. I am also pretty boring as an eater for Breakfast and lunch, eating pretty much the same every day with a few variations.

Are you trying to maintain, lose more, hit certain caloric or Protein goals?

I am sure you will get lots of suggestions if you name your goals with your nutrition plan (so much better than diet plan! HA!) so those who are doing as well as you can help!

Congratulations on your awesome success!

I just broke a 2 1/2 weeks stall by tracking on MFP. I'm trying to stay between 800-1000 calories and it's working. I've lost another 3 lbs the past 2 days.

I only have 25 to goal too and I've heard the last 20 are a b**** to get off. Almost there. The past 2 1/2 weeks I was wondering if my body was just comfy at 158. Glad it's not.

I'm totally new at this at only 3.5 months out, but I find that to be successful at anything, I simply go back to the basics. Log into myfitnesspal.com if you have an account, or start one, find some Protein Shakes or bars you love, toss all the crap food that has accumulated in your home and replenish with meat, cheese, greek yogurt, almonds, basically everything you started eating when your sleeve was newish.

Get in your 64 oz. of Water, limit yourself to 900 calories (or whatever you losing threshold was) and make sure every bite that goes into your mouth is full of Protein. Hit your 75-90 gr of protein a day, make sure your carbs and fat are low and stay away from refined sugar.

My plan is still very basic. An egg or a yogurt or a Protein Shake for breakfast, lunch meat and a string cheese for lunch, and a lean protein and a bit of veggies for dinner. My Snacks are beef Jerky, almonds, cheese, Oh Yeah bars (sometimes these are lunch), yogurt, FF/SF pudding...

Get the right nutrition and get in your 5 miles or 10k steps a day and you should get your body back adjusted to the original way of eating when you were newly sleeved! :)

You can totally do it!

      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.
