This should be a challenging week. I am on a business trip for a WASC (high school accreditation) visit and of course all of the food provided is carbs. bread etc. My hotel room has a fridge but I don't have a way to carry my food with me so it is Protein Bars and shakes for a few days. Might kick start my scale again? Wish me luck. too bad I forgot my running shoes :{

Has anyone gone back to the liquid diet to kick start things again? I've been stalled for awhile. I've increased my calories, Water, Protein and exercise but nothing seems to work.

Hi all! I was sleeved on 12/18/12 and I am down 49 lbs. I am looking for a good food plan that is really spelled out. Some meals I can eat fairly well and then others I take 3 bites and it feels stuck. I know to eat small bites and chew it well, but I want a meal that is comfortable to swallow. Any suggestions???

Congratulations! Good weight loss. I also seem to have a small stomach and have discomfort with several foods. So this is what works for me...

Breakfast. Greek yogurt

Morning snack - baby bel light

lunch - 1/2 sandwich thin toasted, 3 oz canned chicken, light mayo, slice of American cheese. (I find canned chicken more comfortable than deli meat)

Afternoon snack - reduced fat Colby jack cheese stick

dinner - ground turkey as chili, meatloaf, tacos , etc.

Usually is about 1000 calories per day

Hope that helps

I was sleeved on 12/12/12 and so far I've lost a total of 73 lbs. I have to constantly keep tabs on being happy with what I've accomplished so far instead of getting angry that i stall so frequently. I pretty much lose 6 lbs one week then stall for two weeks and that's been going on for at least the last two months. I've learned to just surrender to it and enjoy the marathon instead of the sprint.

I'm having to go out and buy new bras again today because i keep shrinking out of mine. Lol if i weren't actually going UP in cup size i might actually be upset. 201 lbs currently and oh so covering one-derland.

I was sleeved 12/17/2012. I am down 72 pounds. Never thought I would even lose this much weight and its still coming off slowly but surely. It has been such an amazing experience. I am not a prisoner to food anymore. Such an amazing feeling. :wub:

I spend weeks stalling! Then I go down 1 pound then stall again! It's getting aggravating! My "time" of the month seems to be worse!

My time of month is horrible...always messes with my weight loss! I have been up and down the same 3 or 4 pounds for 2 weeks and now have my period. :-( oh well, maybe when I come off I'll lose 5 pounds! Lol

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks my period is sabotaging my weight loss! Grrrrr!

      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.
