October Sleevers! Announce Yourselves

[flawlessly73 20]

I agree - I would much rather have a bit of sag than FAT. I see mine most in my arms.

Have you gone back to basics? When I hit a stall, I go back to liquids & increase my Protein intake. I also go back to no carbs.

It could also be that your body has hit starvation mode. If that's the case, you have to increase your calorie intake.

What does your NUT say?

The nut at my surgeons office I met with once and she was no help and seemed disinterested. I know I am able to eat way more than I should

Make sure you're not drinking your calories (sweet tea, sugar loaded coffee, carb-loaded drinks from Starbucks, etc) & make sure you are getting enough calories & Protein. Do you track your intake on MyFitnessPal or a similar website? Are you measuring your portions? Are you drinking while eating (instead of waiting 30 minutes before & after eating)? Go back to basics to reset your way of thinking & eating. It might be wise to start back with liquids only & then progress through the stages (clear liquids with Protein Powder added in), then full liquids, pureeds, then soft foods. This might help to refocus your thinking about portion sizes, etc.

I have been drinking coke. I wish I'd never started that bad habit back. Im going to try to go cold turkey tomorrow and go back to shakes for a bit

Sounds like a good idea. Caffeine will make you want to snack (& grazing is a bad habit to get into, as it will sabotage your efforts).

How's it going? Were you able to stop drinking coke?
