Increased calories=weight loss



Recommended Posts

How about just having a full day of indulging. Like I said dont over do it and make urself sick but splurge for a full day on things that taste good but may be high calorie. This ought to get ur body confused.

I think that would be a bad idea, for people who have binge eating issues at least. I had half a table spoon of regular sour cream last night with dinner, sometimes i will have 2%, greek yogurt or a small piece of chocolate. Not over doing it is understandable, but a whole day can lead to a whole week, month etc...its better to make small minor healthy choices.

Ok I'm going to jump in a minute! Adding extra calories doesn't necessarily mean high fat ice cream type foods.. It could be just adding an extra snack like some nuts or a piece of cheese etc...

I say that because at this point for me at least eating ice cream would be a slippery slope.

Exactly. And she was sleeved jan 21st, less then three weeks ago. Not even in a mushy stage yet

Exactly, whats the point of sleeving your stomach if you are going to go buck a$$ wild and screw your weight loss with slider foods? Not worth it

I think the point im trying to make is add a little variety to ur diet for a day, more than just Protein shakes and Clear liquids. I didnt know u were JUST sleeved, maybe u should relax and not focus on the scale, the weight will come off

Yes!

It's not even been a month for her!

But sweetncurvy when we are all further out like you, our relationship with food may change and perhaps there will be an ice cream treat once and awhile... :)

      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.
