Had my 6 wk appointment with my surgeon yesterday. he told me not to worry about not losing in the past few wks. I told him I wasn't worrying because of what I am seeing on this forum with the "July Sleevers" and others. Not losing is pretty standard accross the board it looks like.

He also told me to stay away from sugar and stay under 50 carbs and do pretty much the same as the Atkins diet.

He also had me download this site on my phone. www.calorieking.com He urged me to look up any food before i considered eating it. We looked up several things I had started eating and I was amazed at how many carbs were in the chilibeans (turkey) i had been eating. I used to be on myfitnesspal but just keep forgetting to log in my stuff.

Check out this other website www.calorieking.com and see how fast you can check out what you may be wanting to eat at the moment, especially when you are out with friends or not at home. Because of the size of my phone, it is pretty easy for me even though I don't see that well anymore.

      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.
