What is wrong with me??



Recommended Posts

I know exactly what you're talking about. I've only lost 10lbs in the last 2 months becuase I've been getting off track. It doesn't help that I've been so stressed lately (that seems to be a big binge trigger for me). I'm not gaining anything, but I'm not losing either. I'm trying to get out and walk more for the stress. I'm definately at the point where I need to exercise.

Just got back from a 1 day local open show and aside from the fact that I really like horseshows, I know that I WILL loose weight because of how much work we have to do in getting ready, showing and getting packed up to come home. I lost 2# today, now maybe 1# might be Water weight, but I don't care. I love stepping on the scale and seeing it drop.

Keep your eyes focused on that new suit for the show season next year! I have been to 3 local shows since my guy has been home from the trainers to get him some ring time. It's cheaper than when I get to the A shows, will be at the American Royal in 2 weeks.

I look at those tiny wastes in those tiny show clothes and just think how easy they must have it to be able to stay so thin year after year. I don't care to get quite that thin, but it would be nice to have a nicely defined waste so people don't notice the "fat girl" riding as much as the horse and rider as a package.

Funny I lost 3 pounds last week when I got home from being at a 3 day horse show. So much running around and sweating!!

I am happy to report that I have totally been on target the past 2 days and tracking all my foods. Just seem to have lost focus a bit for a few days after the horse show!

Yeah, horseshows can be good and bad. There is often lots of bad food for choices with various vendors and junk food is easier to bring to these events. The hard work does help, but I'm going to have to make a specific effort to have good choices for myself at the show.

Congrats on getting back on track!!

      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.
