Hey BariatricPal members!

Here’s your chance to motivate others and keep your own weight loss on track.

You know weight loss surgery success is all about the food. Well, maybe not ALL about the food, but mostly! Eat the right foods in the right amounts, and you will hit your goals.

To help, I’m starting a new feature: “What’s on Today’s Menu?” It’s your daily chance to share your meal plan and give yourself a boost in weight loss by:

  • Helping you plan the day’s menu – so you’re more likely to be prepared.

  • Focusing on foods – so you choose the right ones.

  • Keeping you accountable – because you’ll want to be able to be proud of sharing healthy choices!

  • Giving you ideas and motivation – as you read other members’ meal plans.< p>

I’m looking for help here from a BariatricPal member who is determined to succeed. Are you willing to step it up and be a leader? Each day, you would create a new conversation where BariatricPal members can all post their menus. It’s a great chance to give back and to stay on track.

Please post here about your thoughts about this idea, and if you want to be that model BariatricPal member! Thanks!

Love the idea! Afraid I'm too busy to be able to help out daily but would love to contribute my own daily meals when I can. This thread got me thinking about getting back to some basics that I need in my diet (like working cottage cheese back in on a regular basis). Think it would be a big help to many to have some meal accountability.

      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.
