Eat 4-6oz of food every 3 hours. no matter what. only drink water 45 mins after each meal. that keeps your metabolism running high. meals should be 75% animal protein, 25% complex carbs, (veggies, fruit, etc). You should be consuming around 1000-1200 calories per day. I drink about 80oz of water a day to flush my system. (I drink a lot of crystal lite) if your really hungry between your meals you need a fill. Exercise as often as you can and as you lose increase it. Set goals for yourself. small goals=big goals. Forget what your surgeon said, focus on what you need to do. Make sure your not high calorie liquids like juice. Stop scale watching. Make a goal to weigh yourself once a month. I think I got to my goals so quickly because I am very strict on myself when it comes to eating healthy. I thankfully traded my addiction to food to exercise. I am currently training to do a half marthon late this summer. Good luck and feel free to send me a note anytime...
