If we snack all day doesn't that defeat the purpose of our sleeve? Who here is planning to log their food? Who is not?

I know myself, and I have to log to stay on track. The log hold me accountable and makes me be honest with myself

I'm definitely logging, I got in the habit during my very long year and a half wait for my surgery. My surgeon required it too. For me, snacking is a slippery slope

Hi all! I will be having my surgery on October 1st! I'm getting very excited. I'm glad to be here where we can support one another. I am currently on the pre-op diet consisting of 3 Protein Shakes and 1 high protein/low fat meal.

How's everyone doing on the Pre-op diet?? I'm hungry!!! Glad I can at least have a small dinner tonight! It can only get easier right? Hoping these 2 weeks go fast but I'm sure they won't since I am so excited to get this started!

I'm starving! I brought 1 Protein shake and like 2 cups of Jello to work, it's all gone and I'm hungry! I'm glad I get off in a half hour, I'll go home and have a second shake and patiently wait for dinnertime!

I have had some chicken broth today and a lean shake from GNC. I also had tons of Water with special K Protein water mix. strawberry kiwi is pretty Good!! I'm really looking forward to my dinner. I went to the sea food part of the grocery store and got individual portions of fish for me and had him wrap them all separate. I also got the baby veggie packs on the go to have my veggies and I'm planning on steaming them. I thought since I have to make dinner for my family it would be easier for me to have my own food set aside to cook quickly. Does anyone know if we can count Soup like cream of chicken as liquid? I think it would make it better for me instead of the Protein Shake.< /p>

oh my goodness... I'm hungry too :/ My 1 meal of meat & veggies helped a little, I decided to make it my lunch, had tuna and spinach. Then shake for dinner and sf black cherry Jello before bed.

I have been using the lose it app and logging food & exercise over a year now. I log everything, the good bad & ugly. I printed a few summary reports of last few weeks to bring to my nutrition meeting. I have been able to honestly look back at my trends & devise different strategies. Logging hold u accountable. It still counts if u put it in your mouth and don't log it. Someone in weight watchers told me that. Hehehe

ok, so if one meal can be 6 oz chicken, as well as broth, as well as vegatables.. I think one of my dinners will be a modified chicken (no noodle)- Soup. What are some other ideas that you all be creating during the next two weeks

That's a good idea! I'm pretty boring though. Yesterday I had chicken and broccoli, today I had boneless pork ribs and salad. It says I can season it anyway I like, as long as the toppings are carb free. I'll go patrolling for a carb free Italian type of dressing for my chicken and I'll be set for the next 2 weeks

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
