Message me if u have any ideas or advice for me

My thing about losing before surgery is, if you could lose weight without surgery...you wouldn't need surgery....right!! I only had to lose 15 pounds in 6 months and I barely could do that. Be careful and good luck!

My doc didn't require me to lose any weight during my 3 week supervised diet because he knows that I'll lose a bunch during the 6 week pre-op diet. Doing 2 protein shakes and a meal with just protein and greens might help you get it down. But don't have anything in between, drink a lot of water! Throw in a bunch of exercise and it might be doable. I start my 6 week pre-op diet here in a few weeks and I weigh 425 pounds and my surgeon feels I'll lose between 30-40 before my surgery because of what I'll be eating. It does seem like an unreasonable amount of weight but if you can't find another surgeon give it a try.

The doc gave me 6 to do it I wasted time was very busy for son he has cp n time ran out but I missed a few key appts so my 6 months started over so I have time again but can't screw up this time

You also need to take care of yourself so you will be there for your son you can do it But you need to focus on your self a little more

Yup that's what I'm doing now my br helps a lot

You should find a new doctor that doesnt have such a strict requirement' date=' i didnt have to lose any weight to have the surgery.....if we could lose it so easily we wouldnt need the surgery.....[/quote']

My insurance requires me to do 3 months Dr. supervised diet for approval and my surgeon said it was possible to lose 100 lbs in 3 months! I just looked at him like he was crazy! I'm sure it's all liquid and stuff. I thought the same thing, if I could lose it on my own, I wouldn't need surgery. But then again, I wouldn't want to be on a liquid diet the rest of my life either!

I would do protein drinks that are low in carb and sugar and then one meal a day ie chicken, or fish and a light salad. Make sure you decrease calories and start moving.
