Now that I have completed classes to prepare me for surgery, what can I do to get the rest of the weight off before the sleeve procedure? I have this edema issue with my ankles & feet; diurectics doesn't work. I only lost five pounds in the 12 weeks required. I want to lose at least 15 more. I no longer want to feel anymore discouraged about the weight not coming off from Water. I basically have six weeks and I know I can get it off, even if its just water weight.

Thanks. Krys

Krys,

The thing that gets rid of my Water weight the best is to stop eating anything with gluten in it. No bread, Pasta, cereals etc. You can eat basically any meat, veggie and fruit...just forget the simple carbs.

I find when I eat like this I also feel SO much better! I'm not so depressed, I think better and just have an all around better attitude.

I hope you do well on your journey!

Do a liquid breakfast (protein shake) and dinner with a light lunch. You WILL lose weight:thumbup:

Thanks KabinKitty, I will try this. I will look up Gluten-free foods. Thanks and I know it will boost some weight loss.
