Hi so have any of you started your two week diet yet? I see my NUT this Friday I'm excited but nervous at the same time, I know I am ready, even though I know it will be a test of wills... not to cheat...I am really working on getting my mindset ready to do battle. It's hard because I have a couple of children I still have to cook for and just keeping in mind this is not for me even though it might smell good plays mind games. No you can not just have a tiny taste... Are any of you going thru this too?

I've been on my Pre-op diet for a little over 2 weeks. I have an 18 month old and husband so cooking is different but so far so good. My liquid diet doesn't start until 3 days before surgery for me.

Wow 4 weeks is a long time... What kind of shakes are you using? I had purchased the Premier Protein shakes from costco - I got all three flavors since I was not sure what I would like.. The strawberry cream is my least favorite, I think because it is just not flavored enough... I had also purchased some sugar free syrups different flavors, so this morning I put some raspberry in with my shake it tasted much better, not sure if you have any of those syrups but they might be an idea to spruce stuff up to more your likening...

      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
