Surgery on January 18th 2016.

Height: 159cm = 5'3"

Weight at time of surgery: 76kg = 167.5lbs = 12 stone

BMI at the time of surgery: 30

Current weight 64.1kg = 141.5 lbs = 10 stone

Current BMI: 25.4

Goal weight: 55kg = 121 lbs = 8.5 stone

Goal BMI: 21.8

No more meds for diabetes, high cholesterol nor blood pressure. Back problems are gone!

I haven't lost any weight since three weeks ago nor lost any centimeters/inches from my body.

Struggling with stomach acidity, lost muscle because of weight loss which had caused that my right knee is in some pain and therefore little training activity.

I also overeat at least once a day because I can't feel full and I have head hunger often, plus my body is looking to cope with the acidity and the only way that my mind translate the word "coping" is with "overeating"
Extremely happy with the results! Just I want to move away from this stall!
Current foods: I haven't touched carbs. Those are the ones that put me in this place, so no bread, Pasta, rice, fruit, soft drinks nor sweets. Basically Protein foods, veggies and fats. This week I'm starting to reduce the consumption of nuts because I'm allergic to them and I tend to abuse them.
What I want to achieve in the food area: remove dairy products and artificial sweeteners. Artificial sweeteners because they act like sugar in the brain, I feel them and I overeat them while dairy I'm also allergic to them and I also abuse both of them.
Water: 1.5L goal achieved pretty much every day!

      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.
