I'm 11 weeks out and started at 298 dos. Highest was 326.6 anyway I have my premier shake for breakfast same as you, I have a lettuce leaf with mayo n chicken or turkey breastfeeding slices (deli) maybe a strawberry or cottage cheese n for supper usually another Protein drink. I had a P3 today, nuts cheese and turkey. 13g protein. I stay away from white carbs like there the plague and actually don't really eat brown carbs either. I may have a bite or 2 of sweet potato but that's it. meats are good n so is cheese. Veggies are good too. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -

I am 4 weeks today and I stalled at week 2. Didn't lose till last week actually so I guess not a true stall. My body was just doing some major work, look up "embrace the stall" while your not losing weight your body is losing inches. Get a tape measure for the no weight loss times. Just stuff I have read on here and it does help to know that even though the scale isn't moving your body is still hard at work. ☆Jeni☆

Congratulations @@ladydirc! Loosers bench coming up WooHoo! ☆Jeni☆ -
Is the worst!! I am fine all day long even not hungry, like this morning it is taking all I have to finish my Protein drink n Water. Just no mood to eat/drink. When late night gets here, from 7:30 till bed at 10:45 I just wanna eat. It has always been this way, I may not actually be hungry but my head says let's eat, graze, munch on something. I am already having a hard time with weight loss (stupid b*thchy scales) lol, losing inches though :-) I don't need head hunger trying to screw me too. Anyone have any suggestions for late night head hunger cures? (Besides water n workouts, I drink 64oz + a day plus walk nightly.) ☆Jeni☆

Late night head hunger
betterme38 replied to betterme38's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@gina171 that would be amazing but I cant. I wake hubby up for work plus I have my son or many other excuses however, I just plain feel guilty sleeping unless it's time for bed or I'm sick. I'm a goof I just can't help it lol good idea though ☆Jeni☆ -
Late night head hunger
betterme38 replied to betterme38's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you @@LowBMISleever I have enough salt I think too much actually not sure cause I'm retaining Water also lol. I don't mind the sf Jello but it needs whipped topping which defeats the whole sf thing lol ☆Jeni☆ -
Late night head hunger
betterme38 replied to betterme38's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you @@UCLA man I have sf popcicles maybe I will have one then too. It is a habit wanting to eat at that time for sure n it is head hunger cause the time is late, things have calmed down or even become "boring" nothing to keep me busy so to speak. We will make this, we will change ☆Jeni☆ -

Feeling defeated....
betterme38 replied to Express09's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh, if you are only a couple days out from surgery, no wonder the scale is going up. They pump you full of IV fluids and you probably have a lot of internal swelling going on! I'm 16 days out lol, don't sound like a lot does it haha sounds more when I say 2 weeks hehe. I feel great I guess is why I think it should be going down ☆Jeni☆ -

betterme38 replied to Express09's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Day to day fluctuations? This is like minute to minute lol. 5 lbs gained since surgery. Guess I "expected " the scale to go down and not up. I'm higher than I was on surgery day. ???? I need to break up with the scale, need to have my hubby or son hide it and bring it out 1 time a week on monday. I think I will do that today, better before I think I'm a complete failure. ☆Jeni☆ -

Mine just seems to keep going up. It's really frustrating and depressing. Maybe I need more Protein idk anymore n I just started this n already thinking I'm failing. It really is a mind f*ck ☆Jeni☆ -

betterme38 replied to Express09's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I do have a question though. How is is that a C. of Water is a 1/2 lb? N 10,500 cal. What does that equal too? ☆Jeni☆ -

First week post vsg- almost no weight lost
betterme38 replied to Believe16's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 2 weeks out n gained...like 4 lbs. I have the same fears and seen my Dr for postop Monday n he said throw the scale out. I have yet to do it it's just a mind f*** so trust clothes not scales. ☆Jeni☆ -
No problem n I don't chew a lot of it just now n again, jaws get tired lol ☆Jeni☆

Yeah I do scrambled with a bit of almond milk n cheese so there fluffier n a Lil wetter so to speak. Easier on the new tummy. I have them with salsa for a different taste lol. Try a Lil bit of canned chicken or scrambled eggs if you think your tummy is ready for it. Mine only hurts if I eat to quick or gulp Water. If I eat slow n small drinks I'm fine but each our own. N if you don't wanna try that's fine too go at your own pace. I had to chew though n gum wasn't cutting it anymore ☆Jeni☆
