Pre Weight Loss Surgery Diet
When I looked at the diets for before and after weight loss surgery, it seemed obvious  that it was the diet that caused the weight loss, not the surgery! The main effect of the surgery seems to be that it makes it less difficult to stay on the diet.
So when the surgeon told me to go on the pre weight loss surgery diet, this is what he meant:
each day:
three clinically approved meal replacements (shakes, bars, etc)
two cups of low carbohydrate vegetables (eg raw salad)
AND THAT’S ALL YOU CAN EAT !!!!
I would have been on this diet for two weeks before weight loss surgery. Without surgery, the longest you should stay on this diet is three months. And its best to have supervision from a health professional
I don’t know about you, but when I look at the size of those meal replacements, I reckon this diet would be equivalent to, at most, one half-way decent meal. I see it as semi-starvation.  Healthy maybe, but still starvation level.
So I’m going to starve…..
