Someone asked what I do?

Low carb, high Protein, and I followed my doc's orders as far as food stages. I have occasional treats so I never feel deprived and I eat until I'm comfortable which does not mean full.

I am usually around 1100 calories a day and I rarely use Protein drinks or bars. I eat a lot of Jerky, cheese, roast beef from the deli, seafood or chicken salad and shrimp.

It's truly the best "diet" I've ever been on because I don't feel like I'm dieting, I'm simply making the right choices for my body.

Exercise is kickboxing, martial arts and zumba. Looooooove zumba. I now do mud runs and 5k obstacle courses (what the what?!?!?), teach kickboxing and regularly get in my 10k steps. I wear my fitbit everyday and I love to move.

Did I already say that this was the best decision ever?

Y'all are too kind! Believe me when I say I have shopped. And shopped. And shopped. And shopped and shopped and shopped and shopped... It's my new favorite thing. My husband is kind of wondering if I am ever going to stop. HA!

3 years later I'm still shopping. For me it hasn't stopped!

      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.
