I have 8lbs to go to reach my weight goal and I have a visit with my nutritionist on the 12th of this month. I'm so nervous my current weight is 358 I've been doing all the same things as before to lose weight. I'm open to any suggestions and hear what works for you guys please share links and ideas.

I am no expert but I have replaced my dinner with a Protein shake every night. Nothing to eat after dinner until bedtime. Drink lots of Water all day long. East small healthy meals.

I hope this helps. Otherwise you might want to consider a full liquid diet for the next day and a half.

Good luck!

Summer

I would say go full liquid and sub with raw veggies if you need the crunch. Carrot sticks are my go to as well as cucumbers and bell peppers.

I was already done with all my weigh ins with my nutritionist but I kept going just to keep up with my weight and get her advice on things. Yesterday we decided no more visits until after I get my surgery. Right now I'm just waiting to hear from the insurance company.

      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.
