Getting Back On Track And Restriction



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I'm offically going on my 9th month and starting October I've lost about 100lbs. It's exciting and scary. This past month -- mostly the end of summer my eating habits havent been great. I went from not really eating at all. to now eating the wrong things. And now I'm worried about my restriction. I definitely still have some restriction but it's not as much as it used to be. and i feel i need that back. I've heard of people doing liquid diets to get their ristriction back. is this true? PLEASEEEEE HELP GUYS!. I really want to make this surgery as success and don't want to F**** it up.

I too am 9 months out and notice some habits slipping... summertime too relaxed and fun I guess!

I think the boot camp is a great idea.

I notice that by doing 3 simple things I get back on track: 1. count Protein grams and make sure you always hit your daily target 2. Count Fluid intake and 3. Monitor portion size (ie measure). I am not counting calories or carbs, but just doing Protein first and getting enough Fluid seems have helped me get on track and be less "desiring of food". I think those dang carbs just start enticing you over time....

      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.
