OMG! You are a rockstar! High five :) We have similar body types, can you tell me what you have done as far as diet & exercise? Mainly Protein? More cardio or weights?

Of course I love to share! I have always gotten my Protein in since about 1 week out. No less than 65 grams. Water.. I drink looootsa Water. At least 100ozs a day. Im eating about 1200 cals a day now. My nut/dr do not do the low cal "diets". Im eating about 2.5ozs of protein at every meal and maybe 1-1.5ozs (1/4th cup) of something else. Im also not carb strict. I do eat veggies and bread. As far as exercise. .. since week 6 I have done strength training 2xs a week and I walk all the time.. I make sure I get in 3 miles 4/5 days a week... but I do my 10000 steps 4xs a week which is roughly 5 miles wortg of steps.

      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.
