  1. I am currently on my preop diet and i was getting sick of the meal replacement shakes. Adding a tablespoon (1/2 serving, approx 25 calories) of pb2 to my shakes makes it much more bearable and i am actually looking forward to drinking it. I was wondering if it will slow my weight loss as i want to lose as much as i can before the surgery.

    Calling January Sleever????

    Mine is on jan 5th. My emotions are all over the place, i am so nervous and excited. How many calories are your preop diet? My doc gave me 1000 calories which i feel is too high.
  3. Guys what can i do to achieve my goal? Apart from following exactly what the doctor says ,is there anything extra i can do? Like how many calories should i burn and take in a day if i want to lose as much as i can? Doctor advised me to start my preop diet about 10 - 14 days before. My calorie intake should be 1000 a day, can i drop any lower than this? I am planning to start my liquid diet 21 days before so i can lose as much as i can before. Is this advisable? Currently i am on 3 shakes & one light meal a day. Sorry for all the questions, i am new here and its nice to talk to people who have gone through this before.
  4. @@momohime Thank you! I am very nervous about the op, and this really makes me feel better ,that it would all be worthwhile at the end. Your weight loss is impressive, over 125lbs in 7 months? Wow.
  5. @@erp Thank you for your reply. My doctor did not speak anything about goals or how much weight i can expect to lose. Correct me if i am wrong, but your starting weight and height was somewhere around mine? How long did it take for you to reach your goal weight? Your progress is really motivating. I am going to do all i can i reach my goal weight!
