I done screwed up ya'll

[Vinasu 621]

I was at 44 BMI before surgery, and I lost 32 pounds two months before surgery doing what most people are telling you.

1) get a myfitnesspal.com account today. Log every single bite you take. Do not go over 800 calories in a day.

2) do not eat bread, Pasta, rice, potatoes, or sweets of any kind. Do not drink alcohol.

3) make sure you are getting 80+ grams of Protein every day. Have a Protein shake for Breakfast. Seafood is your friend. Shrimp, crab, scallops, fish, crawfish, etc. are all fantastic choices.

4) drink at least two liters of Water a day. Rinse out a Coke jug and fill it. Use that to measure your progress. Drink the entire thing every day. Drink more if you can. Add ice.

If you can't do this now, you might need to reevaluate whether now is the right time for you to be having surgery, or if you should have therapy first. Surgery isn't going to magically change you.

My diet 2 weeks before surgery..... 2 meals with 3oz chicken, fish,or any lean meat, 2 cups of leafy greens salad with lite or fat free dressing, 1/2 cup veggies ( no corn, potatoes, or peas ). On the salad try not to use iceberg lettuce of you can help it.....spinach is better. Then use 3 primer shakes....1 for Breakfast, and the other 2 for Snacks between meals....Drink plenty of Water....non caffeine and no sugar.....crystal light, is an awesome drink..I lost 15 lbs

Premier Protein shakes,

3 a day, or 2 a day with a healthy dinner. 2X 15 min walks a day. Drink lots of Water. Use real fruit, freezing the fruit in ice cube trays if you want some flavor to your Water.

Here's an example:

8am: shake

11am: snack (turkey sandwich meat slice with Tomato slices.

Unflavored Protein powder sprinkled on everything you eat. Mix it in your water too to help with the hunger. It helps so much!

2pm: shake

6pm: dinner

Example of dinner:

1/2 baked chicken breast, cup broccoli.

If you find yourself still hungry before bedtime, a peach or pear or 9 Almonds are are great.

Keep walking, walking. Good luck and best wishes. You got this

I lost 13 pounds during my 2 week pre op, 3 Protein shakes a day and lots if green leafy vegetables. If I am really hungry, I have a hard boiled egg. The hardest part was giving up bread, but it is worth it. My surgery is December 6th.
