Starting 3rd month of medically supervised diet



Recommended Posts

Today marked the end of month 2, I have 4 more months to go until I can try for insurance approval. I had a horrible month due to starting provera, and finally having a period after 11 mo. Damn PCOS. Good news, I did not gain any weight. The first month I lost 10 pounds, and this last month 1 pound lol. Still a loss though!! I have my psychological evaluation next month sometime, and I'm registered for my 3 classes I have to take starting Aug 10. I have to buckle down and get serious about my diet and exercise again, and try quitting smoking. Going to go to a vape starting tomorrow, then lower the nicotine dosage. I just need off cigs. They are terrible!

This is my 2 month of supervised diet , I have 4 months left to go too! I have all my other appointments this month. Hoping it will speed up the process, I feel like I been doing this forever. Maybe we can keep each other encourage along the way. Good luck with quitting cigarettes and this new journey!

Awesome! And don't be scared paige, in 2 months I've lost 11 pounds lol so it wasn't a drastic change. But if we can dramatically decrease our bmi with lifestyle change and keep it that way, it would Def be better than surgery.

Good news nikki! Where is everyone from?

I will have my 6 mon visit on the 20th. I am just praying all goes well and I can be rid of some of my help problems. I know this is just a tool, but I'm really excited. I have two friends one did the sleeve and one the by pass. Both are doing great, down to their ideal and are off all mess except allergy and thyroid

      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.
