Hello, and welcome congrats on your weight loss so far, before surgery I just watched what I ate and wrote everything down, that really helps so you know what you are eating, write it down before it goes in your mouth so you hold yourself accountable for it. Good luck

Welcome. I'm also new to the site. My surgery is set for May 15th.
As for weight loss I agree with writing it down. I also took this pre op time to start preparing for after surgery and started to have protein shakes for one -2 meals a day and focus on a healthy dinner with lean protein and veggies. Also keeping meals at 50 carbs or less and snacks at 15 carbs helped
Best of luck and congrats on your weight loss to date
