Ok I’m on my 4 th day of 2 week liquid diet pre surgery and feel pretty good have lost 5 pounds already. Keeping calories around 850-1000. And today I’m so not hungry struggling to get up to 700callories. 3 shakes 1 jello 1/2 cup. 1 cup fat free Greek yogurt which I haven’t eaten but did count the calories. 68 oz water and 1 dill pickle. Has anyone else just not be having hungry on pre op ?

Hate spell check don’t know where Nehemiah came from. When that happens is what I meant. :)

Just in day 2 of liquid doing good abs down 2 ponds in 1 day. So helpful Nehemiah that happens. How is everyone doing on liquids?

Ok here we go 1st liquid diet done. Thirteen to go. My stats for the day was 100 grams protein fat was 18 grams, carbs 46 grams total calories is 861

Had 2 shakes 1 Bariatric pal cream of chicken soup and 25 oz of water. Ready to drink 32 oz the dinner shake and finish with my Greek yogurt

When you have bypassed surgery everything needs to be counted. I was a long time. Ww person but if your metabolism is below the average it makes a bit of a difference. My resting metabolism is 1400. The average person is up to 2000 to 3000. So when losers ng 1 pound it’s a difference of a minimum of 500 calories. So for me eating even 1000 calories a day it make it next to impossible to loose.

Even the free foods should be tracked. It does make a difference based on your metabolism level. Just FYI

Today began the 2 week liquid diet diet. Thanks to Quest nutrition each shake is 100 calories and 21 grams protein and 3 carbs And I can have Greek yougurt which is the bomb 21 protein per cup mix in some PBFIT and cocoa powder and 1 stevia packet and it’s like a fudgie pudding um

Can you do the qreek yogurt. How about fat free refried beans with an egg scrambled in it? You can add the un flavored whey protein to everything too.

So good right. I’m down 2 inches the last two weeks. Yea!!

The dry and metal taste in your month can be ketosis which means you’re burning fat. Make sure you up your plain water and good fats ( small amount) you all are awesome doing great

Well the truth will speak for itself. Right. Hoped that she would get on some meds that will make her feel Less negative

Good luck to all the August peeps. I’m on the 29 th and start liquid diet on Tuesday. 2 days of NORMAL food and then liquid all the way. Soon to be on the losers bench yea!!!!!

During a stall they recommended upping water and calories. Maybe add a shake

My above 3 comments are for they The original person who started this thread creekimp13

Every one seems to miss the point of this site. NO BODY HERE has known what to do to be healthy or they would have not (regardless of research) needed WLS. part of this journey is to win and loose as we step up the ladder of what works for us individually. So get off the high horses abs agree we need each other’s story to help with the journey without owning the judgement. Good luck to all of us not eating crow in 1-2 years down the road.

Is there a reason you seem belligerent and angry. Seems a happy pill might help you out if other opinions upset you so

Listening to everyone I agree and kept thinking how badly we want to WIN this weight loss. But It makes me think we will always be judged by our outside. Thin or fat so we were judged before and we will be judged after WLS. How many time before surgery would someone tell you You are so pretty and is so intelligent and a delight to be around but if you could get your weight under control you would be amazing I heard that too many times myself and then the other side of it a lot of my very thin friends you’re so beautiful and you’re such great shape you know it’s too bad that you keep getting missed on those promotions at work. People. What can we do ? Right. But having 2 masters and weight loss surgery and to be successful at all of this and home and family makes you a roll model for all women regardless of age and body type. Thank you for sharing with us. :)

Our Wegmans is like a Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s mixed together

GamePlan18 we are twins. Very excited to meet you. I know we have no money to go out either tomorrow I’m gonna scrounge through our freezer and see what we have. I know I have boneless ribs. It’s not steak but it sure is good :)

Thanks you 2 it’s funny we all wanted steak. If I do it I think I’ll have a filet. Very lean and maybe a sweet potato. 1/2 cup of course. :)

Well I am just 5 days away from my 2 week liquid diet then surgery on August 29 th 11:00 am. So my question is to have or gave not a food funeral. I’m more on the side of not but then my mind keeps telling me how good a prime rib dinner would be. Yikes

Hope all is well with you. Let us know you are ok.

You might try organic maple syrup just a teaspoon and it should take headache away. Check out the Paleo Diet they have recommendations for sugar substitute including coconut sugar. Good luck

My surgery is the 29 th 9 am. Can’t wait. Start my 2 week pre op liquid on the 14 th. It’s just around the corner. Stats HW 257 1/2018 CW 234 8/4/2018 SW. ? 8/29/2018 GW. 165. 12/2018
