Congratulations everyone! Those are amazing results. I'm curious about exercise. Are you guys working out, walking 30 minutes a day, hitting the eliptical. I want to have your kind of success in 3 months so i would love to know.

I was walking about 4 times per week, but haven't walked in a few weeks. I plan to start back soon. What I mostly do is eat low carb and track every single thing I eat. I ate 20 grams of carbs per day for about the first 2 months; then I started eating 30 grams per day to allow for more variety in my diet. There are days when I go over by a couple of grams, but I try to keep it at 30 or below.

Good luck to you! :)

Thank you for sharing debbie! I know exercise is important, but i suspected controlling your diet is really where the success comes from. I havent started exercising yet because i get tired really easily, but i will start even if it's only five minutes at first.

I'll keep in mind the low carbs too.

During the first 2 1/2 months I walked 2 miles 6 to 7 days a week. I haven't walked in a while and boy can I tell. I have some plans for this coming year!! :)

I napped every day for the first 2 weeks and to be honest I napped daily before surgery. I never nap now!! :)

I also started walking the day after I got home from the hospital around the cul-de-sack once then twice then to the mail box then farther each day :) I totally understand being tired.

Low carbs are the key for sure for me for sure. At 4 months out I have 1000 cals and 50 carbs a day.

      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.
