Wow! Amazing! I mean seriously what's 2 lbs? I was told at the beginning of this process not to gain any weight. I have to be 242 or less and I have gained to a whopping 257. So looks like I will have a stuggle there at the end. I am praying that I can get it together before hand. Did you do anything in particular to lose weight in the end? What was the reason you had to be 270?

i had to loose either 5% or 3% , Sorry i forget which percent but I was 298 , I dont know why, it was a requirement of my insurance and, I did the 3 miltary diet n lost 7 pounds besides that I just walked more n ate less n drank more Water

      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.
