I am close to 4 months out with a total weight loss of 74lbs but lately I've been screwing up, today was really bad - grazing. I usually eat under 800 calories, today... 1500. I need help with my head, why is it I am attempting to sabotage myself? What have some of you vets done to stop the grazing.

:crying::confused1::cursing::angry:

Hang in there Ken!! Remember why you made this decision. If it helps get a small timer... if you are hungry set it for 15minutes. If after that time you are still hungry eat something healthy. I have not had surgery yet, but I am doing the pre-op diet and I can tell you I have been tempted to say screw this and just eat everything I can find!! haha I also find that distraction helps me a lot. Go outside, go for a walk, watch a movie... something to get your mind off of food. Also, consider seeing a counselor... this is a huge change to your life. Having someone to talk to might help.

Keep up the good fight!!

p.s. I cannot have anything in my house that would enable me to sabotage myself. (Cookies, ice cream, chips...etc) If it helps, get rid of everything!! I am a lot less tempted if I have to drive to the store. :confused1:

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
