I'm Rockin' Lilmissdiva's Boot Camp...it Works!



Recommended Posts

So, I'm 5 months out as of tomorrow and I absolutely LOVE my sleeve....it's the best thing I've ever done for ME!!! That said, as of this past Friday I hadn't lost even a 1/2 pound since I hit the 4 month mark. I've been exercising EVERYDAY as I'm training for my first triathlon at the end of June. I'm really happy with my progress and I try really hard not to allow the scale to be my only measure of success.

That being said, I've still been frustrated for the past couple of weeks because this stall has been longer than the others and I have not had a change in my measurements.

So, on Friday, I decided to break out LilMissDiva's Boot Camp. I started it on Saturday morning and have followed it to the letter....even drinking the one gallon of Water which is hard for me as I typically drink Powerade Zero. So, low and behold, I got on the scale this afternoon and I'm down 4 lbs!! The great thing about this is that it's not torturous!!!

Anyway, just wanted to put it out there for anyone trying to figure out how to break a stall....give it a try, it works!!! I'm only at the end of day two and I've already broken my craving for carbs and salt (I had been cheating a bit on salty carbs, like chips).

Thanks LilMissDiva!!!!

Lisa :D

Wow, good work!

Looked at the plan, it sounds pretty reasonable. For some reason I thought it was the same day as the 5-day pouch test, which involves liquids only for a period of time - I'm not a fan of that and it's definitely very difficult to handle. This plan sounds like a much better approach to jump-starting your weightloss and getting junk food cravings out of your system.

      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.
