Last Week Of November?



Recommended Posts

I feel the same way totally back to normal. I had a rough day at the doctor for my 5 week follow up but otherwise doing good. The scale there weighed me 6 lbs heavier and the doctor got on to me about not loosing enough. It was frustrating! :angry:

Anyway, I still have one habit that I cannot kick. I eat too fast then pay for it later! I try to slow down little forks and spoons chew chew chew but still I take a bite right after I swallow. UGH! It's a habit I know and after I take a bite I think why did I do that. Anyway it's a work in progress. I just got a treadmill for 40 bucks off a friend and also got biggest looser for xbox kinects so I have been working out. I have been stalled for a little over a week but I am hoping once I get in a better routine things will get better. Water is also an issue for me. I at least get 30 oz in a day and I urinate alot so????

An yway good luck in January everyone! :D

Hi everyone! I was sleeved on 11/29 and so far I've only lost 24 lbs. I'm really bummed about that. My husband was sleeved in September and he's already lost about 70 lbs. I am having problems getting in all my calories and Proteins. What am I doing wrong?

First off it isnt fair to yourself to compare to a man they have higher metabolisms than us. <_<

Also I was sleeved on the 30th of November and I wouldnt call 25lbs in 1 1/2 months a bad thing!!!!!! :blink:

Normal diet plans they say 1-2 lbs a week is healthy. You are still loosing so I wouldn't freak out just yet.

I was bummed at my first stall but I realized aunt flo and having a cold had something to do with it. I wasn't active at all. It seems now that I can eat more I am loosing better. I think because I get more real proitein in and I am drinking Water as often as I can. Plus walking and working out on the xbox has helped as well. Keep you head up. Just think if you hadn;t had the surgery would you be 24 lbs down now? :rolleyes: Seeing the scale move has motivated me more to keep up the exersise because that is the key! :D

Good luck! ;)

      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.
