Hey! I'm jumping on the bandwagon. LC completely works for me. I have been LC'ing it for several days now. Here is what I have eaten today:

Breakfast-strawberry whey Protein shake from smoothie Factory (made with Water, 50g Protein, the Protein powder is 0 carb...but I did add peach slices with no juice...not too bad, huh?)

Lunch-1/4 cup chicken salad from Chic-fil-A

Dinner-Baked white fish (eating on this right now)

If I get hungry later, I will drink coffee with Splenda or Chai Tea.

Pre-band, a couple of years back, I lost 100 lbs doing LC but fell off wagon and gained it ALL back. It should be a piece of cake now that I have the band...:thumbup:

just search Amazon for Atkins caramel and you should find them

hmmm. suggestions...

the chicken from the other low carb thread was really good. you can get it at Walmart super center... cant remember the name of them though... just search for the low carb thread (its pretty big...)

I did a thread search on low carb and there were so many pages of low carb

threads. Do you remember the name of the thread?

I did low carb before surgery and it works great for me. However, since moving to regular foods, I have been on carb overload and I am eating way too many of them! Can I join you guys? I did have oatmeal this morning, but it was whole wheat, so not the worst carb in the world to eat. I just feel better when I'm not full of carbs.

I'll show the chicken that's soooo good, here's a picture of what they look like, you can buy them at Walmart. They have 2 other flavors, a bacon & cheese one and a jalapeno & cheese one (beware, that one is a little hot!!)

      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.
