Last May, a WL Dr put paperwork in to my ins co to get a pre-authorization to begin a12-month weight loss counseling program. I weighed 206. During the summer I had a terrible family event and put on 20 lbs. On May 2 my yr will be finished and the Dr will put thru the final paperwork and it's going to show that I gained. I'm worried I will be turned down so now I'm desparate to try an lose 15 lbs in 5 weeks. A little depressed because I don't know if I can do it...... His surgical muse has even penciled me in for June 26. I'm do close but feel so far.

I have tons of sugar free jello....I am not allowed any food. I can have 8oz of chicken broth...

Mine is 1000 calories a day

1000 sounds more reasonable. Under 1000 I think your body goes into starvation mode won't let you lose.

Don't be afraid of the broth or sodium in it, just drink another glass or two of water to flush it out!

Oh I didn't think it would flush so easily! Great cuz I'm on my third cup today. It's good! (Better than Bouillon). From what I've read, I believe I need to drop one of two meals and have 2 shakes and only one small meal a day.

I did a juice fast ( you would need a juicer and a ton of fruits and veggies) if your really dedicated and don't want to do protein shakes it could work. I lost 11 lbs in 9 days . Message me if you need more info.
