need to get going

[wheeling 18]

I should be getting sleeved in June. I know there is some things I need to start doing now. I can't get going, I still drink when I eat, I still eat bread and some sweets, I cut down in the Pasta and potatoes, and do go to the gym, but the weight is up because the food is up. Am I screwing this up? I have an appointment with my surgeon on the 19th. Hes not going to be happy. Don't know what I am asking for here, maybe just some ideas to get me started

All I can say is follow your doctors orders. The reason we get sleeved is because diets haven't worked for us in the past. Preop is just that, a diet. You will still crave sweets, breads and pastas. The only advice I can give you now is to try an identify exactly why you are craving these foods is this truly a craving from within or is this because of stress or boredom, etc. Also, the drinking with meals thing you can practice, but as long as you are doing your best and following what the doctor orders you are doing well. Its much easier post-sleeve, at least for me.

Write everything down that you eat. Itll really open your eyes ti what you're doing. I use MyFitnessPal. Have you seen a nutritionist? They can give you guidelines and support. Mine can get in to my MyFitnessPal and monitor what I'm doing. I'm chicken to actually let her see so I haven't set that up, but I could
