I did low carb/high protein/high healthy fat during my six-month insurance-required diet program and lost 99 pounds pre-op. It was the best thing I ever did for myself. I re-established my relationship with food, and prepared myself mentally and physically for the demands the sleeve would bring post-op.

I started at 397 taking in about 2000 calories per day. I whittled down to 1800 then 1500, and finally, 1200 for the last 3 months of it. I cut out alcohol completely, too. On the day of surgery, I weighed 298, and today (10 days post-op), I weigh 284.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

Exercise as much as possible...walk walk walk...eat Protein and stay as low carb as possible. I loved south beach diet but of course a fail on the long term. The Breakfast fritatas and omelettes are great. You can also try replacing one meal with premiere protein...I only suggest that one bc it has 30grams if protein...it's also what my NUT had me do.
