I didn't have to loose any particular amt of wt prior to approval, but my 3 wk pre-op diet was an Adkins type diet.  High protein, very low carb.  I lost about 15 lbs in those 3 wks and even cheated a little.  I know if I did it you can too!!!  Good luck.

Sure you can!! 
If you cut out pasta carbs, bread, and follow a 1,200 calorie diet, you WILL loose weight for sure!
Journal.. journal... and on this site under "Tools" is a way to log in what you are eating. Go to Nutrition Tracker and have fun. It sure makes it easy to log stuff. You do not have to go to another website, just use this one.
Getting rid of soda you will drop weight too. I don't get it, but diet soda kept me from loosing and I drank it for 40+yearsm so you can do this too!
We will help ya get there!

Thank you sisters for the support! I started a Atkins type diet. If I still have a lot weight to lose a week prior the appointment. I will do only protein shakes for a week. I know it is healthier ways to lose weight but honestely if I could eat only 1200 calories a day without being hungry, I would not be overweight and not be a candidade for WLS.

My old favourite way to lose weight really fast, without starving myself was with Atkins Induction!!

If you follow it to a 'T' that weight will just melt off, espcially if you get and say in Ketosis.

Oh and get out and get moving, even if it is just walking.

Good luck!
