Help!! I am only down 8 lbs. I need to loose 14 more to have a lap. I can't afford an open. Any tips? I nearly starved myself last week and weighed in and I think I gained 1.5. I am eating normal this week. I have been dieting Since June and have lost 32 lbs. I kind of slacked off once I found out I was having surgery. I have been a looser but I could never maintain or keep it off. It crept up on me. I am going on liquids two weeks prior just because a lot of posts say it shrinks your liver a bit. Some doctors order it some don't. I just have to have a BMI under 50 or I have to go open.

Regina, 14 lbs in two weeks will be cutting it very close. I found the high protein helped me. I cut out bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, desserts. I lost 26 lbs with Weigh****chers then 20 more since the end of July doing high protein and exercise. Drink LOTS of water. Be sure to take your vitamins so you don't get run down. You could do protein shakes 2 meals a day made with water, then protein (no more than 3 or 4 ounces) plus a salad with zero carb dressing for dinner. That might help. Good luck. Mary
