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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
