My doc put me on this for 10 days before my surgery and I think I lost like 12 lbs. My husband went from like 250 to 206 on it.

We basically bought a bag of chicken breasts and low cal/low sugar sauce to cook it in and cooked green Beans or black eyed peas with some salsa... we ate that meal for a while. salad with that one cal. spray dressing or just oil and vinegar... it gets easier after that first 2 week phase one diet.

It does work if you follow it.

give me some suggestion on what u eat

Hi China,

I eat a lot of grilled or roast chicken with a low glycemic vegitables...like spinach, greens, string Beans and plenty of salads. You can load your salads up with artichoke hearts, cucumbers, small amount of tomatoes, onions and feta cheese. Lean steaks are good too...throw em on the grill as the weather is still nice.

I don't know if you can make 39lbs in such a short amount of time but if you stick with phase one ..you should get real close to your goal!

The dietician at BGH gave me 2 lists for Phase 1 of South Beach and Phase 2... I can fax you the list if you don't have it. Just let me know. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
