To be honest I haven't been exercising as much as I should. As for my diet once my doc cleared me to eat anything I started logging every single thing I put into my body on myfitnesspal I eat high Protein low carb foods...lots of fish turkey chicken....I weight my food and every once in a while I'll eat something I like such as pizza :) I think what had helped me the most is keeping track of what I eat :) If you go to myfitnesspal my user name is ruthiecoyne and see my diary.

I did not expect to lose weight this fast especially since I had such a horrible time losing weight before surgery and plus I have hypothyroid.

I am working on getting my Protein in. For some reason I struggle with it. My hair has been falling out but I have been raising it. I keep my carbs under 100g a day. Sometimes I go a tad over but I try to keep it under 100.

Thanks everyone for your cheers! :) this is very exciting and very surreal! Sometimes I forget I am no longer 230 pounds. After all a few months ago that's what I weighed. Now her I am four months later and 20 pounds away from my goal of 135!

      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.
