Eating Plan for 2010 - Getting back on track.



Recommended Posts

I have decided to go to Weight Watchers tomorrow to get back on track with weight loss. I always had good luck with it in the past, but I always gained it back (this time it will be different because of the band though). :rolleyes2:

I am exactly the same weight as I was the last time I went for a fill 11 weeks ago. I had 2cc's put in today. (7 total) This was a difficult time period for my diet because of the holidays, a cruise and a business trip. I'm ready to get back on track.

Are you all going to do anything different or are you losing easily still? Gaye

I hear ya. We are just about in the same place. I have lost 45 now, but it is very slow. As of 12/21, I also have 7cc's in the 9cc band.

I know I eat too much, so I am trying to see how I feel after really only eating a small amount.

After the last fill, I finally have some restriction. I almost had something stuck for the first time, and I have to wait for things to go down. FINALLY!

This is not a fast as I had hoped, but it's still moving in the right direction.

Hang in there. That's what I keep telling myself too.

I also have about 7ccs in my band, and I also have plateaued over the past month or so. I've seen the scale go up and down so much I can't even keep track. My doc says that's what happens in maintenance. Since I've never made it to the maintenance phase the million and one times I've done Weight Watchers, I didn't know. Anyhow, he gave me a slight fill, and I have started back to walking daily, which I had stopped doing when we got 2 feet of snow dumped on us a week before Christmas. I also have sworn off chips, which were my personal downfall over the holidays. And... I am determined to go back to the pool starting this weekend!!!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one making a fresh start. :(

Good luck to everyone!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
