You might try increasing your calories. I had a stall for a few weeks and read that anything under 800 calories puts your body in starvation mode. I also started doing some cardio which helped too!!

Ty. I may try that. I also have been doing Water arobics. I thought about going back to liquids for at least 2 days maybe it might jump start me.

Only thing i'm scared to go back to my dr. in 3wks. From the last time I went he said he wanted 28# off n so far it 2 :( he's already called me himself n fussed. :/ some way I gotta get at least 20# off by 3wks. Help!!!

In my humble non professional opinion you need to eat more. I eat a minimum of 850 calories a day most days and make sure Protein is at least 70 usually 85 or more. I had a stall for about 2 weeks but figure it was just my body adjusting and note it is coming of again. I am down 55 since beginning the pre op diet.

Good luck :-)

Feel like c**p.

Stayed out a bit longer than anticipated and had no Snacks with me. So when the family grabbed take out from the grocery store before we shopped I thought the yogurt parfait looked like it would work for me. Yogurt, granola, fruit. ... what can go wrong? Well half way thru got nauseous and crampy. So stopped eating. Went online and checked nutrition and it had 300 calories must have tons of sugar. Paying for it now:(. Lesson learned... always carry emergency Quest bars.

I eat quite a bit of ricotta, Greek yogurt and cheese. Plus I have a Protein shake for Breakfast which gets me off to a good start. I will also throw a half scoop of Protein powder into a yogurt or coffee if I am short for the day(but trying not to do that too often). Plus I sometimes eat half a Quest bar for my Snacks.

      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.
