*grumbles*

i am NOT doing a very good job! BUT i think i figured out how to deal with the crushing STARVATION during the day... instead of having my one meal for dinner, i have it for lunch. then i have my second shake of the day for dinner. i did it today and it worked well. my hubby comes home kind of late, so we end up eating at 7-730pm which is far too late as it is. i'm actually up 2lbs!!! :embarassed: eating that late cannot be helping. :der: :mad:

so.

breakfast: 8oz vanilla soy milk, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 6oz of coffee blended together

lunch: veggie burger with one slice of 2% cheese, light mayo, ketsup and mustard, pickles and lettuce on a whole wheat bun, beef jerky (yes, again)

dinner: 8oz chocolate soy milk, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Are you allowed to eat solids? I haven't read your other posts, but your header is "Day 4" so I am wondering if that is ok yet. Also, I was told to avoid coffee because caffeine stimulates the appetite. Don't give up on yourself. You can do this! I am struggling with the post-op hungries, too, and had a shaky days yesterday, but plan to get back on the bandwagon today. Keep trying and the scale will turn around!
