Grrrrr Stalled For 3 Weeks, It Broke--But I Was Bad



Recommended Posts

3 weeks at the same weight. Following the diet, with occasional cheat. A potato chip here, a cookie there....but WAY less than I ever ate pre-surgery. I am 3 months out and can tolerate anything. The dry chicken breast gets me...but that is it. Anyway, yesterday I was home cleaning all day and that is my toughest. Being home, my tendency is to eat. So I did (at my new reduced level). 1 Protein Bar, 2 single serving bags of veggies chips, 2 string cheeses, 6 Tyson wings, 6 Oreos, 2 pieces of Bonnie bell cheese over an 18 hour period. And today...I lost 1.5 lbs.

wow six oreos! I don't think I could do that. I can barely eat anything. I am a taste here a taste there. Going liquid for the rest of this week. I need to shake my body up!

6 Oreos were over several hours, not all at once. But still...pretty bad.

I think the key is to feel free to do something like 6 Oreos once in a great while then get right back on track. It isn't the one cheat that hurts you--it is the ones that follow. Besides.....everyone has a way to break a stall....some exercise more, some eat less....Before sleeve dieting strategy for me to break a stall was to sleep 10 hours a day for a couple of days and have one really bad for you meal. Worked every time.

To build on that, today...protein bar, chicke/bean/corn salad and sashimi for dinner. So lots of Protein today...was so easy to get back on track. In the

Past I would've been off the rails on my crazy train.

That's the way you shake your body out of a stall, by changing your whole routine up! :) You already know you can't eat like that every single day, but I have days where I think OMG about my food choices. The key is to not let that become the routine. :)

      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.
