Each day I ate 3 Protein Shakes at 6 am , 10 am , 2 pm then a dinner of 6 onces of the Protein of choice and as much lightly dressed salad as I wanted. I dropped 22 lbs the week before surgery. One new years I went back on this diet to reboot. I am down about 3 lbs in 5 days. However, I have lost close to 120 lbs since surgery in may.

Mine was 3 weeks, 4 shakes/day about 900 calories from them.. 1 cup raw green veggies, no dressing. All the low calorie, clear, non carbonated drinks I could handle. If you aren't doing fluids then focus on lean Proteins, and fruits and veggies. Try to be very low carb, if not cut it out completely. If you do carbs then make sure they are whole wheat. I would keep your calorie intake at 1100 or less if you can.. and maybe for the last 2-3 days consider the liquids switch..

eggs are a good breakfast option and turkey sausage, or turkey bacon, or lean bacon.. do a google search you'll get a ton of ideas there on high Protein low carb options

I am 9 days in to my 14 day preop diet and I do a shake for breakfast 16oz half Water half skim milk, Protein Bar for lunch (quest Cookies and cream), a shake for snack and then dinner is 4 - 6 oz of chicken or fish with 2/3 cup of mixed veggies. As my surgery is this Friday I will be doing all fish as that what I plan on doing after surgery.

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
