Help with food logs for last leg of my race

Hi everyone, I have been so so so so blue waiting and waiting and waiting for approval from my insurance. They made me go through a 6 month dieting program that I had to pay for out of pocket, even though I had already done everything on the planet. It HAD TO be "medically" supervised, and regular appointments with my doctor didn't matter. So, I paid out of pocket and had to make these appts last 6 months. What I learned was that I will not lose any weight and in fact gain on what the dietician had me doing. I cann't have carbs!! She doesn't get that. She doesn't agree with low carbing at all. But, I gained weight on her program and they just don't think I am trying hard enough. It makes me sooooo upset. When I followed the high protein shake plan that the WLS place put me on I lost 20 pounds. It was low carb and high protein. That is what I need. ANYWAY, I am just complaining now. I have been so excited and I want to get on with this NOW. But my insurance denied me AGAIN because I need to "finish" this program. My last appt. needs to be a final weigh in, I am supposed to have lost at least something to "prove" that I can stick to a diet plan (if I could stick to a diet plan why would I be going with WLS ?) and at this appt I have to present weeks of food logs that I have no kept up on. My 3 year old rips them apart and things are just so crazy in my house (I have 6 kids ages 1 up to 11) so, trying to keep food logs is really really hard. C

MY QUESTION: Does anyone have suggestions on how to put together a food log to turn in to this dietician to finish, and finally get on with having the WLS? I am supposed to count amounts, and starches, meats, dairy, that sort of thing. I think it's comparable to a weight watchers thing.

Thank you to anyone who has suggestions!!
