I lost maybe 1 lb during my six month Dr. supervised "diet"  Thank God Dr. Teel didn't require weightloss beforehand!

I love my DS!

before i could have my lapband, i had to do a 2 wk liver shrinking diet & i lost 30 lbs in 2 wks...but it was NOT easy, it was a modified adkins, i could drink all of the crystal light etc that i wanted, & lived off of protein bars, string cheese & sugar free candy...& IF i HAD to have something more, i'd have a grilled ck breast, but that was it!!! I feel that the key to my success though was that i never ate more than 30 grams of carbs per day...but i had waited 10 yrs for a WLS & if they would have told me that i couldnt eat anythiing  for the month prior to my surgery i would have done it!!! if you are still drinking soda STOP NOW!!!  The best protein bars for me were the Adkins bars, use the NET carbs as your guide, they have an incredible selection & sometimes you have to go to different stores, to find a bunch of different kinds, but they have tons of "cheats" like p-nut butter cups, salted nut rolls, snickers, (not thier brand but their version of them) & whats amazing is that if i keep them in my house, my 4 boys will eat them as readily as they will eat the real thing & i have to warn everyone to stay out of my adkins bars!!! good luck, were all pullin for you =D 

ps...
DO NOT stop eating all together, we forget that this puts our body into self protection mode & it holds onto everything that it has!!! your better to go get a bunch of low carb snacks, string cheese & tons of crystal light & snack & drink as much as needed, @ least your not puttin your body into shock & when we want to lose weight, thats the first thing that comes to mind...I'll just quit eating when its the absolute worst thing we can do....we all know it, but yet we all do it, its a mental block that we all get from yrs of people just telling us to close our mouths & the problem would go away...if it were only that easy =(
