Has Anyone Tried Curves Complete?



Recommended Posts

I am currently trying Curves Complete, through Curves. The plan calls for me to eat 1500 calories a day, three meals and 2 small Snacks which seems reasonable, except sometimes the food is quite literally "too much" for me to eat, and I get stuck quite easily. Not sure if it is the food combinations, or if I am finally starting to feel the restriction I should be. I know to stop once I feel the restriction, but does that mean I should put the food away to eat later, or be done with it altogether until my next meal?

Sound like a huge amount of food to me and when you are full STOP .....; don't save it .... I guess my question is why are you doing this ? Did your Dr recommend this ? Is it costing you ? No 3rd degree here just being 3 years out I know it takes work on my part and once you get in the swing you know what you can and can not eat and anything thats sticking is either to much, not chewed, or a no no for you, I can never ever eat bread sometimes I dream of HAMBURGER BUT ................... IT JUST ISN'T WORTH WHAT IT COST ME IN DISCOMFORT.

1500 seems high to me. Also my doctor does not recommend Snacks even before restriction.

Be done with it. Ive on occasion done soething called Lite n Easy - a home delivered 1200 calorie plan, and i cant eat it ll. Just goes to show that healthy food is much bulkier and keeps your calories right down

I was thinking something similar about 1500 calories seeming to be a little on the high side. And I get stuck only on certain foods right now (bread and pork!). I decided to try it since I had only lost 12 pounds post-op, which was December, and I wanted a kick in the rear. It's been great for getting me in the gym more, so I guess that's good! :)

      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.
