I am currently doing my 6 mo supervised diet. Struggling, as with every diet in the past. But, I would like to use this 6 months to start changing habits that will need to change for after I am sleeved. I have a list of things so far that I want to work on one step at a time, but I would like to hear from those of you who have already been there. So, what do you wish you had done the 6 months prior to surgery to prepare for the changes you needed to make after surgery? Or, what did you do that you KNOW made a world of difference in your success after being sleeved?

Thank you in advance for your input.

You've probably heard these, but here's a list of things I did and wish I had did more!

•Drink lots of Water, get used to it

•stop drinking soda, lower caffeine intake

•don't drink during meals (easier said than done)

•try different Protein Shakes, don't buy in bulk...your taste may change

•start walking and keep walking

•take pictures weekly, you'll be amazed at the results!

•don't "live by the scale, die by the scale", limit your weigh-ins

•vitamins, Vitamins,vitamins!

•don't eat late at night, set goals to gradually lower your night eating

•many small meals, not a few big meals

•get small containers, baggies, shake containers, blender, food scale

Hope this helps! Good luck on your journey!

Take your measurements (inches) before surgery. I didnt do this and sooo regret it now, coz I cant say for sure how much my inch loss is..

And take pictures!
