What's the best diet plan to lose weight before BBL?

A combination of diet and exercise is your best bet. Eating a well-balanced diet consisting of "clean" foods combined with exercise that includes cardio and strengthening can lead to long-lasting results. Most attempts to lose weight are more successful when you initiate permanent  changes your patterns of diet and exercise. Fad diets may help you lose weight in the short-term, but people almost always gain the weight back.

Hello, thank you for your question! Choosing to go into surgery at a more healthy and maintainable weight is a great idea, and you have given yourself a good window of time to achieve this before 2018. The best way to lose weight in a way that it cannot be quickly regained after is to go the route of diet/ exercise rather than fad or crash diets. If you feel you are stuck at your current weight and are doing everything right perhaps consult with a physician and professional nutritionist or dietician, you may need to up your regime. Good luck!

Dear Renewed11,Congratulations on taking the next steps to improve your body. It looks like you have a goal weight in mind. Optimizing your weight prior to surgeries will improve your results and prevent a loss of results if you were to lose the weight after surgery.  Make sure that you are eating healthy and exercising. Consult a dietician and sign in a gym. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Uploaded photos would be helpful in providing feedback.  Recommend you schedule an exam with your PCP to discuss a weight reduction and exercise program.  A gym membership with a good trainer would possibly help you overcome the weight loss plateau.  You will get a better result and have fewer complications at a lower weight which is held stable for 3 - 6 months prior to the BBL.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Hello dear!!Thanks for the question. I recommend you to look for a professional nutritionist to change your life style and to talk about your goals. I think you have enough time to do a properly diet before surgery. But remember diet is everything you eat, not stop eating.Hope this could help and good luck :)

You wouldn't get a gastric bypass to lose 30lbs. Look into a few options: 1) diet and exercise plan - you can meet with a dietician to help you  2) weight loss balloon - ie. Obalon or 3) see your PCP to start a diet pill such as phentermine.  Good luck!

There are many options for successful long-term weight loss.
Personally I have chosen a vegan diet which I find beneficial for multiple reasons.
Having performed well over 3000 liposuction procedures, of which many were overweight. I've had the opportunity to learn what seems to work and what the causes are for many peoples obesity.
I have composed a short write up on what I have learned in regards to weight loss based on the feedback of the many patients I have interviewed.
I hope the following is of some help.
Lastly the ideal patient for liposuction and to some degree fat transfer patients is someone who has tight skin and thick layers of fat and undesirable areas.
Weight-loss patients often have skin laxity which can dramatically lessen the potential results of liposuction.
For patients with skin laxity it is very important to set expectations correctly in regards to what type of results can be expected without addressing the skin laxity.
A few thoughts on the weight loss.
While liposuction is generally not prescribed as a treatment for obesity most patients will get liposuction are somewhat overweight.
From having met tkyhousands of people interested in liposuction I have had ample opportunity to talk to many people about their struggle with weight.
A few repeating patterns seemed to emerge.
Perhaps the most common one is people not eating frequently enough. Losing weight by not eating is a fallacy. In reality we tend to over eat when we eat after having gone hungry.
Another common misunderstanding is the relationship between weight and exercise. Most patients are not successful at losing weight by exercising without changes in diet. Weight is 90% diet. Exercise has to do with fitness. 
Think of diet and exercise as two separate entities with two separate purposes. 
That said I encourage everyone to exercise on a regular basis. 
The majority of people get hungry from working out and tend to over eat afterwords. Sometimes feeling justified to do so after a strenuous workout. 
The number of calories burned during a typical workout session is far less than people believe.
Any successful weight reduction program has to be based on permanent change. Any temporary diet plan will ultimately fail if not followed by permanent changes in behavior.
Understand the role that insulin plays in obesity and what causes insulin surges. If you read the late Dr. Atkins book you will learn that his obsession was with controlling insulin much more so than with eliminating carbohydrates.
Learn what glycemic index and glycemic load's are. Avoid eating meals that give a high glycemic load. This is somewhat similar to saying avoid eating large carbohydrate based meals though understanding what foods constitute as bad carbohydrate meals is critical. This will be learned after mastering the concepts of glycemic index and glycemic load.
Here are my rules to keep weight under control. 
1. Never go hungry
2. Never eat a large meal. 
3.  Never, never, never eat a large meal when your hungry.
4. Avoid large carbohydrate based meals.
5. Don't expect exercise to get your weight down and don't blame the lack of exercise for not being able to maintain your weight.
6. Step on the scale every day after you get out of the shower in the morning.
7. Accept weight fluctuations. None of us stay at the same weight or continue to go down in weight.   Don't beat yourself up if you gained a few pounds. It's the long term, rest of your life, progress that matters.
I hope that is of some help.
Good luck,
