My surgery is Nov 1st. Starting the month strong.

I will be starting my soft food phase thanksgiving day technically. I'm a bit worried about what healthy food options there will be for me th at I'm actually able to eat. I may just put off eating so ft foods for a few extra days so I'm not tempted. Is thanksgiving and Christmas a concern for anyone else?

How are people monitoring their progress? I created a spreadsheet of various body measurements, weight, body fat, bmi that I plan on filling out weekly, I started a week before surgery. As well as weekly pictures.

6'1

CW:230

GW:155

BMI 31

Good Luck!! I am excited for you! I think do what will make you comfortable for Turkey day, I know for me in class they said by January day of your surgery they lift all restrictions so for me January 6th and so I am going to miss holiday grub this year and I am ok with that. I wasn't really planning any monitoring type things other that scale... but I do have a skirt and a dress in my closet I have never worn that maybe I will keep an eye on... good luck!

2nd week starts today did good the first 5 days slipped a little yesterday ate a few bites of chicken it was my daughters 2nd birthday and we had it at a all you can eat pizza place so i thought to my self i better eat something so i dont go in there and eat pizza so i ate half of a grilled chicken breast before leaving the house I know i wasn't suppose too but pizza being my all time fav im not so sure i could have went in there and not ate something so i ate something good for me to keep me from eating something very bad for me so its a decision im happy with and would make again that being said back on the liquids today week and one day till surgery down 15 pounds since last Sunday 9 pounds to go and im at my goal weight i wanted to be at before surgery. happy Sunday to everyone

hope the bday party was fun, and I think there are a lot of people whose plans include some actual lean Protein, but I think it was awesome that you knew your limit and prepared that in itself is a pretty great goal. I can't believe I am losing at all on this preop diet, I literally never lose weight so it is building up hope that all of this will work since I have started to now it has been 24lbs.... I am amazed and my thought of what would be nice for myself was 275 pre surgery I am holding strong at 276.4 so hopefully this next week it will be achieved.

Enjoy your time now and just keep preparing I remember thinking omg I ready already and thinking everything was moving really slow but it didn't it moved pretty fast in the end, and I am feeling pretty good with the prework I have done, and I think also during the two week prep seeing the scale move a little faster is also pretty motivating. Thanks for the luck! I will keep you all posted!

      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.
