3/4/09 - Day 3

Today I started my planned diet as someone who was having gastric bypass surgery would. Prior to the actual diet is the pre-diet. Usually the doctor wants you to adjust to eating less and healthier prior to surgery. So for the next 4 weeks I'm eating less and eating healthier, fresher food.

The next 4 weeks break down like this:

Morning Meal:
1 cup Plain Oatmeal
1 Banana

Afternoon Meal:
6 inch Subway Sub (Turkey/Tuna on Wheat with loads of vegetables)
2 Pieces of Fruit (Apple/Orange)

Evening Meal:
20 oz of Soup (Tomato/Vegetable)
2 cups of Frozen Vegetables (Mixed/Broccoli/Brussell Sprouts)

After the 4 weeks I will fast again. I won't eat for 3 days just like someone undergoing the gastric bypass wouldn't. After that I'll start on a liquid diet for 3 days. Next, I'll be on a soft food diet for 4 weeks , eating 6 small meals a day. After that, it will be on to firm food and adjusting the 6 small meals a day to a steady 3 meals.

I didn't post the picture of myself yet. I have to charge my camera and upload the picture to my computer first. I will do that when I have some time this weekend.
