5th of 6

OK so I have the insurance that requires 6 months dieting and 6 weigh-ins for approval for surgery. I have 0 cormobilities. I am borderline approved bmi, so I have been instructed to not lose any weight by my doctor or I would not be approved. My 5th appointment is on Tuesday and then one month to go. After my 6 th weigh in I should have 2 wks before surgery is scheduled. I want to use at least one of those weeks to do all liquid diet and get to 200lbs or less (currently@ 211) before surgery and get my body used to the liquids before surgery. I know my tastes will change after surgery but I set this goal as my first goal and would like to accomplish it. I quit smoking in October to prepare myself to begin this journey. I drink all kinds of liquids , water , tea, protein drinks, Popsicles for snacks. I got a gym membership at planet fitness going. I have not watched what I eat but do not have a huge appetite lately. We went to pizza last night and I had one slice and 3 chicken wings and I was stuffed. I am trying to practice the no drinking while I eat thing. That is hard. I am a drinker. I love a huge tea or water always throughout my day. Well I'm just wondering how much protein drinks and water and broth should I consume pre op during that week or two i am doing this? I am so excited that these months are going by quicker now. It's almost to the end of this waiting game. Starting today I've begun sit ups with weights. If done every day until surgery I'm hoping my stomach muscles are a little tighter at least. Doing treadmill and weights for the arms as well. I am on the far left in the picture. That's me yesterday at my son's 2nd grade awards.
