Getting Upset With Self



Recommended Posts

OKAY now I am getting mad at self. What I am doing is not working. I joined the gym across the street and with all I do still nothing. Charting food and plenty of Water and still nothing. I go back on the 5th of April and no results this month. even a 1/2 a pound would be better then nothing. I just don't get it. I know getting depressed and doing nothing will not help so. I am looking for a new exersice routine and any suggestions. My clothes are all bigger but no pounds off just do not understand.

Thanks the whinner......

On average, how many calories are you getting in each day? I really feel like you are not eating enough for the exercise you are doing, if your previous meal post is your normal. Have you thought about eating 6 small meals a day (around 150-200 calories each every 2-3 hours), instead of 3 regular meals? Maybe that would give your metabolism a boost. Just a thought. Maybe you could try changing up your workout routine too? That sometimes helps.

U need to do some good cardio ( u need to make yourself sweat :) )followed by some resistance / strength training, you might not be eating enough calories, most people who need to count the calories eat between 1000 and 1200 per day, so change something small and try that for a few days.

Make sure you reduce your salt intake otherwise u will retain some Fluid if u are drinking lots .. maybe add some tea or coffee with skimmed milk as a filler in between meals .. that will give u a little more Protein and calories without going overboard :)

      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.
