Need to lose 14pds to get VSG date

[Slimsoon1988 123]

Today was my first ever bariatric appointment and it was with the nutritionist. I told her that I would do whatever It takes in order for me to have the surgery before March. At the end of March, I am expected to take on a lot more responsibility at work and I don't want to take off. She told me that since I've scheduled all my required appointment in the month of December that I have a high chance of getting a Feb date. If all goes well with my appointments this month the only obstacle left in my way is losing the required 14pds. My next weigh in is Dec 29th. I know I am reaching high but I want to really go for it. I plan to up my Protein and veggies and hit the gym hard. I would value any helpful suggestions. I want this so bad I can almost taste healthy/skinny.

I suggest getting a good tasting 100% Protein isolate Protein powder (for example, UNJURY), Torani or Da Vinci sugarless flavorings, sugarless puddings, FAGE sugar free low fat yogurt.... piece of cake. You can easily do this by Dec. 29th.

Yep, I would simulate a pre-op diet. Protein Shakes 3-5 times a day. Water and Decaf tea or coffee only.

Thanks. I plan to do grocery shopping and stock up on some Protein sources.

Drink lots of water...lots! If you retain Water take a water pill! Eat high Protein and low carb! Did I mention drink water???lol!

I lost 10 pounds in 14 days on my pre op diet. 3- 5 Protein Drinks per day(Premier Proten broth, Water and Vitamin Watwr Zero. It was really hard to do but if you really need to take off those pounds it will work.

i lost a pound a day on the pre-op diet of 2 Protein Shakes a day and 1 meal with a lean Protein and small serving of veggies. Plenty of Water and go Decaf.

I like the 2 shakes and light dinner idea. I just really hope I won't be starving throughout the work day.. But I guess I should practice for the pre op diet.

So tomorrow I'm going shopping for some shakes. What are some favs out there? I'm looking for something that can keep me full as long as possible..
