Roheryn 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Time4me, click on my weight loss ticker. It will take you to the ticker factory website. Create your own ticker as per instructions when you are done you copy the BBcode into your signature block on this site (the sig block you can get to through the 'Quick links' drop down box on the top RHS of this page.) Oh and don't forget to bookmark your ticker page so you can get back to it easily if you find you can't! good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StarFish 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Hello all! I too am on the pre-op plan. My instructions are two Liquid Protein meals a day, one Breakfast meal of (choose one serving of two)toast, oatmeal, yogurt, eggs, and then an evening meal of one lean meat and two servings of green vegetables (anything green). This is close to about 1000 calories a day and over 70 gms. of Protein. I have felt surprisingly good...If I think about food, my head gets hungry but I know I do not want to mess this up. Best of luck to all of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
