Weight Gain

Well I knew that it would happen someday but I didn't think it would happen this quickly. I gained weight this week :( (1 lb) It’s a real sucky feeling but I have no one to blame but myself! For the 4 days this past week I didn't get in enough Protein and I know a big key to my weight loss is getting in 60+g of Protein EVERYDAY. I also took in a lot more carbs then I usually do and I didn't make it to the gym in two weeks now. I was sick one week and then the next I just didn't go because I would have only been able to go one day since the rest we were out of town. So like I said, My Fault all the way! I KNOW what I need to be doing now I must just do it! For whatever reason it seems that now I can "see" myself and my excuses better than I used to! I guess before surgery I chose to not see and now I chose to see. By making excuses I am just hurting myself and I don't want to do that! I WANT to be healthy and lose all my weight, I WANT to feel good in my own skin and I WANT to be physically fit! I can only do those things if I Choose to eat the right things and I go to the gym! Today is a new day and I'm going to Choose the right way!

Alright you can stop beating yourself up know. I for one am proud of you to acknowledge you made the mistake and taking corrective action. To me that is very admirable..

I read somewhere on here that the amount of calories you would have to eat to gain a pound or two overnight is almost impossible for new sleevers. Once I read that, I stop beating myself up and kept it moving.

It's good to recognize our own mistakes! But what I think is... All my skinny friends have times where they gain 1-2 kgs just like that. Stress, job, whatever. Then they lose them again, just like that. You've worked so hard until now (I see it from your ticker!) and I don't think you should beat yourself up. It happens to "normal" (as for body figure) people, it can happen to us too. My hubby gains and loses 1-2 kgs all the time. Even 3 or 4 sometimes. It just depends on his mood and his job, not really on his physical activity or his food.< /p>

And now you are to start again, so... Good! Maybe you just needed a break...

And look at this one, at least you don't weigh what you used too right? Get back on that path and walk it . . . you'll do well. . . we all have these problems. . .I'm stalled now for 2 months, my fault cause i've fallen into a bit of a depression and really couldn't care less right now. . .but at least i don't weigh 350lbs right??? :D

I was going to post the same thing!!! However, instead of your o1 lb, try 2 lbs. I know that I have no one to blame but me but I am just sick with myself. I did not work out last week because I was sick and then I did not eat like I normally eat nor did I drink all of my liquids like I was suppose to. I am also taking some meds so I don't know if has anything to do with the weight gain also. I am just going to push myself this week and to try and get back to where I was at. I am hoping that it is just a fluke and that I did not actually gain the 2 lbs.

      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.
