85 pounds in 4 months?? Amazing job!!! But plateaus are frustrating for anyone especially an extended one. I'm only about a month out so I have zero experience!! But how is your Protein intake, still up high?

Actually my Protein sucks... I have tried 7 types of protein supplements, shakes and such and they all have made me sick :( so therefore my dr had me eating 1&1/2 tablespoons of peanutbutter first thing in the morning and right before bed :( and mainly meat and vegetables for other meals :(

Which Protein Shakes have you tried and how do you mix them? I mix mine with skim milk and splenda. Greek yogurt is also a great source of Protein. If you can't tolerate protein supplements then be sure you eat lots of lean meat because you need 60-80grams of protein everyday to keep losing!

Try Unjury chicken Soup. It really is good and is 21 grams of Protein. You have to order it online but you can order samples for like 2 bucks. Also my surgeons office gave me some samples of it and I tried it and loved it. It taste like creamy chicken bouillon in warm Water

My nutrition said more Protein, up to at least 90 g, more Water, and more calories on the days you work out

      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.
