Well I started at 215 currently go from 186-175. I try different things but have trouble sticking to it. Like ill go off and have ice cream or machines with cheese and just from that gain 3-4 lbs instantly. I try hard to eat clean but that program I was tring was really hard to stick to since I'm a nurse working alot with 4 children. I need convience but most time convience isn't always healthy. I still do have to eat slow and watch at times I guess maybe too many calories I intake. I think it's finding the right program that is livable and I can stick to it.

Keyword!!! NURSE!! You know better. You've got to discipline yourself. Pack a lunch and a bunch of healthy Snacks. You are not "regular" anymore. Don't give in to the foolishness of eating wrong because it's quick. You can change that by quickly going into your bad if healthy Snacks for a quick fix. Come on Cherway95.....don't bail now. You through all of this for some cheese....and ice cream? Ice cream is for birthday parties. You been to a party? NO! Stop it. Just get back on track. You can do it. :-)

Thank you for redirecting me. Most nurses are the worst they are most over weight and eat terrible due to time and stress. But I feel I can't preach health if I'm not healthy myself. So I joined the gym got myself a perso al trainer and away I go. I do need to try to stick harder to the eating plan. Do you mind telling me how your typical day goes as far as what you consume?

      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.
