Oh wow yours is strictly liquid! I was told no slimfast because it has too much sugar in it. Good luck with you diet and surgery! I'm sure you will be able to get through it!

Yes it funny how different they are. My dietitian said Protein Shakes need to be under 5 grams of sugar, under 200 calories and high Protein. I've been doing the Premier Protein. Good luck to you too.

I take my hat off to all who are on the pre-op diet during Christmas and New Years. I am nervous about the pre op diet all by itself let alone during the holidays which are usually centered around food. CONGRATULATIONS rather you realize it or not that is no small task and just wanted to encourage all keep it up. I start Jan 4th😬

Mine is as follows:

Starting on January 4th, avoiding carbs, no fruit, no yogurt. I will be using a Protein Shake for 2 of my meals, and my other meal will be lean Protein and vegetables. The day before surgery (1/10) I will be on a liquid diet. 3-4 Protein Shakes a day and sugar-free Clear Liquids.

My surgery is Jan 11 (with luck as long as I don't get cancelled)

      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
