Weekly Weigh In



Recommended Posts

June13,

We have been on this journey so long together! I'm so sorry to hear you are struggling.

When you are out shopping, how about some low calorie salty and crunchy treats like cucumber or celery with salt? I also like sugar free hot apple cider mix, sleepy time vanilla tea with splenda, and the starbucks instant Decaf coffee so I can have something yummy to sip that's calorie free.

And I think you should be yourself a treat that is not food. I love getting a new lotion or lip gloss.

I use a white board that sticks to my fridge door to track what I eat each day.

Are you exercising? For me, I have to do it first thing or I won't do it. I lay out my exercise clothes and get up a little earlier so I have time to exercise before I do anything else.

Sending loving thoughts your way.

Back up to 125 adding more food to my Vegan Diet. Going to change my goal to under 125 vs 127.

Hope all is well

Yeah, I didn't catch that when I wrote my reply! Maybe search for Tiffykins old threads on being pregnant with the sleeve. She documented the first pregnancy on these boards pretty extensively before dropping away while pregnant the second time post-sleeve.

I don't have a word of advice. At 56, I would be a medical miracle if I were pregnant, and not a happy one :-) I'm firmly entrenched in grandma territory these days :-)

5/14 weighed 198 @ 7 months!!!! 35 pounds gained. It is all over my body too!!! Hardly any in my tummy! I am scared. This month I could eat a lot more than last. 3 more months to go. I hope it slows down. Doctor is worried ... My Iron is low and I swear I look 4 months pregnant. I get to have another sonogram to see if she is growing ok. Heart beat is good. Feel her moving a lot more, but I can easily hide the fact that I am pregnant at 7 months. Taking iron supplements twice a day.

June 13, Glad you are checking in. STOP. You can do this without gaining anymore! Start a food log, Do whatever you need to do. I admire you. It would be so easy just to call it quits but I know since you are logging in you still are in the sleeve "groove"

I am having a hard time again. The vegan thing just isn't cutting it I has put me in "carb crazy" gonna rethink this.

Today 127 yikes. As you know some would say no big deal but this is why I still log in!

Carbs are basically what is killing me and my Iron. I didn't want to low carb while pregnant so really it has been sandwiches after sandwiches!!! bread bread bread!!! And donuts and cake and ice cream...it is just a lot! I need to go back to Protein protein protein.

127...not too bad...could be water...but...vegan...I did that for three months before the sleeve. I just ate salads...beans...and more salads. I didn't really eat a lot of carbs. Bagels with tofutti cream cheese and sometimes some pita and hummus, but it was like salad after salad! I lost 20 pounds. But the carbs will really stick it to you!

Congrats June on your pregnancy. You are doing really good right now.

Fee you are remarkable. Good job balancing your weight too.

At 20 months post opt I can eat so much more and it's scaring the pants right off me.

So I have decided to start planning my meals and making different foods. :)

      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.
