Ok, so I was informed by the nutritionist that I need to start changing my eating habits... Yay for, me to (start counting calories). I should only eat 1200 calories a day.

Even though I have yet to be approved for, weight loss surgery. My inclination of assumption would be... The nutritionist wants me not to wait until the last min then butting my body in shock; when the time prohibit for, me to be placed on the liquid diet.

Hopefully this make sense, because it sounded in my head lol

Can any or everyone give me some help! on how I'm going to only eat 1200 calories per day?? what could I eat?

When When I went for my initial consult they gave us a binder wit a suggested eating plan. And there plenty to eat. They told me 1200-1500 per day, with 60-80 grams of Protein. Give me a minute and I'll upload a couple of pics of the pages.

Hope you can see those and hope it helps. If you can't see them or just want them scanned and emailed to you I can do that. Just let me know. And I do agree that changing now will make it easier. In fact, I'm going back to a strict 1200 calories (I'd was between 1400-1500) since I'm close to getting an actual surgery date.

      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?

      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.
