6 Month Diet before the surgery prep diet

So I am required by my insurance to get with my doc and go on a restrictive diet for 6 months, meeting with her once a month for weight-ins and evaluations.

I am curious if anyone who went through a similar thing has a particular diet recommendation. I had some success on Adkins back 13 years ago. I was able to stick to it more than others. I went back to eating normally though and put it back on and then some.

Looking at Keto or another carb restriction diet to hopefully train me to get away from that junk before and after the sleeve.

Suggestions?

My dietitian let me know last week that I have lost enough weight to qualify for only one week of liquid diet before surgery instead of two weeks. That is great news! She didn't tell me what the specific bmi number was I fell below. I'm thinking it was 45 bmi
