Need To Lose 20 Pounds...HELP...PLEASE...ANYONE!!

Hello Everyone I know that I haven't beenn around like, I used to...and honestly I've been stressing!! I need to lose 20 pounds in order to have the surgery. My surgeon hinted @ the fact that if, I didn't and on teh date of my surgery (which I don't have yet, but shouldn't be much longer) that it will be canceled. And it would really bum me out to wait this long get this far and have it canceled. So if anyone could possibly give me any advice I would love it!! Thanks so much in advance *smoochies* ~NEVER SURRENDER~ ~T~

Het TT, I remember being there myself. What ever yoou do ,do not stress out about it. You have come this far, you can now see the light at the end of your tunnel. What I found that worked for me is I increased my water intake, cut iut the carbs and load your self up on protein. Start trying to eat some of the things that you will have to eat as a post -op. Sf jello, pop-sicles, if you have the cravings for something sweet. Another thing that will help,if you have not already started some type of physical activity, you may want to start doing a little something now. That wasy post-op you will already be in the routine. These are some of the things that helped me. I hope that maybe this can help you too. Kwheen

My Dr put us on a modified Atkins diet prior to surgery, He said we had to shrink our liver before he would do the surgery, he had us on the protien shakes morning and lunch with the high protion low carb Supper. I dropped 18lb Fast!!!! Hope this helps, Good luck, Deb 392/284/180
