  1. Water (liquid) is the main thing to worry about your first week, you dont want to get dehydrated...lack of protein the first week will not hurt you but lack of proper hydration will so if tea and ice chips are working dont push the protein to much...email to nut is a great idea also good luck!
  2. I take meloxicam for my knees, I have to say bye bye to that 5 days before surgery and only tylenol after but on the plus side the pain will get better with every pound you lose...I have lost 23 doing my 6 months of requirements and I notice a huge difference!
  3. Wow I think that 20 is great in 3 weeks! Thats what like over 6lbs a week so where would you have been if you hadn't had surgery? Im still pre op but it has taken me 6 months to lose 23 the old fashion way lol your doing great and yes search on here the 3 to 4th week stall seems to be the norm...good luck, your doing awesome!
  4. I have Geisinger Health, they have a bit of a list also. It is a 6 month program, I got to skip couple things like sleep study and I already had gallbladder out years ago. I only have my psych left to do. I hated having to wait but im kinda glad because its giving me time to work into the new lifestyle im going to have and I have lost 25 lbs...just cant wait to get it done!
  5. A lot of places offer skinny non alcoholic versions maybe try that at social gatherings so at least you dont feel left out
  6. Good for you, keep strong you can do it!
  7. I just finished my 6 months I was told to lose 30, I lost 23 but I got the green light because I showed I was making changes in my habits and I fully understood what I was in for..so dont stress over the weight just focus on learning about your new life, make the changes and work on any issues and you will do fine good luck
