Recommended Posts

Ok - I'm in as well :biggrin: I will start with my next meal but start posting tomorrow.

I've only lost 2 stinkin pounds this past month #$@%$!!!!

I'm with Mandyjo - my weight loss has come to a screeching slow down!

LJM - where do you get the Atkins caramel latte? Is it premade?

Bring on the ketosis -I got loads of gum and mints !! :thumbup:

I also wonder about the Atkins shakes. Are they super sweet? Can't handle too sweet but would love to have something for a snack. Can they be heated so I feel like I am getting a "coffee treat"?

i throw it in the freezer for about 20-25 minutes and it tastes like a frap from starbucks ... soooooooo yummie. :biggrin::tt1::thumbup: i wouldnt heat it though, not sure how it would turn out. on the can it says to serve very cold.

Where do you get the Atkins carmel shakes? I see the chocolate and strawberry in the stores. Is this a powder you have to mix?

I've always pretty much been low carbing it.

Oh tell me more. I have been an Atkins fan since the 1970's. You get all their stuff from Amazon? What else do they have that's good. Is that where you get the caramel too?

I REALLY NEED TO GET BACK TO MY LOWCARB ROOTS!

I had a Wendy's chili for lunch with cheese......(it's all I've had today so far)

coffee w/sf creamer is how I start every morning.

ohhhhh, i LOVE wendy's chili .. i think i may have that on one of my free days... i try to stay below 20 carbs a day and a small has 23...

Thanks. I will check out Amazon after work. So do they have a whole section for Atkins products? Can you make anymore recommendations?

      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.
