Still confused THIS IS WHAT I ATE TODAY!

permalink

Hi, well I am still a bit confused, scale stable with 50/lb loss in 9 months. My Family Dr. is pleased now off all BP Meds etc. went to my Surgen and found out I was overfilled for the last 6 months so they took a bit out and I feel better. Working out 3 to 5 times a week with trainer and nutrionist. the Nutrionist keeps increasing my cals and says not to worry about the scale. Actually the Surgen said not to worry about the scale too! But I am so into the scale. well this is what I ate today. It still seems like a lot more than others, I have been overweight and YO YO Dieted my whole life.

Breakfast: Protien shake, with Skim milk, banana

snack. 5 appricots, with almonds and cheese. also coffee

lunch. 6 Onz chicken cutlets.

Snack: Protien powder, Milk, 2tbs peanutbutter

dinner : 5 onz bison, 2 laughing cow cheese, Mixed Veg.

Total 1500 cal, 138g protien, 55 fat, 129 Carbs.

I am also suppose to start using the food extchanges. The plan from my Nutrionist is actually 1900 cal.

Breakfast 2 Protien, 1Milk. 2 fruit

Snack: 1 Fruit, 1 Milk, 1 Fat,

Lunch: 5 Protien, 2 fat, 2 starch

snack: 2 protien, 1 milk, 2 fat

Dinner: 5 Protien, 1 Milk, 3veg, 3fat,

Total: 13 Protien, 4 Milk, 3 fruit, 6 fat, 2 starch,

Any thoughts? Really want the scale to start moving again. I started at 300, than 270, than 260 in Oct, down to 250 in Dec. still about 250.

Hey, Im not a dietician so I cant really give advice, and since your doing alot of exercise your calorie intake seems to be correct to me.

But Maybe, cut down 200 calories....

Also are you drinking 2ltrs + of Water?

I never count the Water I drink during exercise to my 2ltrs.

Also maybe check the sodium levels...

Sorry i couldnt help more but it seems as if you have your diet under control but your body is just stablising for a bit before it looses more weight. Keep going... you will get there =)

      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.
