I must admit. The people who talk about eating all those carbs don't seem as successful in weightloss as those that don't.

I don't eat bread, much Pasta, much potatoes. I confess i save my carb calories for an occasional dark chocolate bite.

But i have lost 125 lbs and holding. I Constantly remind myself to eat more Protein. I see others who have had the surgery eat tons of bread and empty calories then gripe about the struggles with weightloss.

It's all about choice. Ya know?

Lol I haven't attempted carbs or fruit yet because I have a hard time getting my required amt of daily Protein in. Maybe others are fulfilling their protein requirements with ease and so they are venturing out to carbs and veggies.

I think some MD's and nutritionist are very lenient with there patients. A lot of bypassers have been able to anything and everything post op. I guess it's like a diabetic they take a shot or pill and still eat poorly. Bypassers eat what they want because they think the malabsorption will take care of it. Sorry my honesty gets me in trouble...

I had surgery Dec 15 and am down to 179. I could not wait to eat fruit absolutely love it. I don't eat breads, Pasta, potatoes, or other processed carbs. However last night my daughter was eating Doritos so I tried and had some. That was after 86g of Protein. I do have a shake before I work out and after. I work out everyday. I think it is inappropriate to judge someone because you don't know their daily menu or work out schedule. I believe after almost 4 months since surgery, w nothing but healthy food (proteins, veggies, fruit) for me, you have no place to be judgmental. Before last night, I didn't touch one processed carb. Many people on here might be the same way. So please step off that pedestal you placed yourself on and stop looking down your nose and making rude comments to those of us who are honest about what we ate. We are human, we aren't perfect and neither are you. Sorry just had to say something cuz it seems like most everyone you quoted you sounded snotty.

      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.
