Eating more and more....help



Recommended Posts

Was sleeved in November. My weight loss has always been on the slow side. I lost 52 lbs so far. I must admit' date=' my food choices have been terrible. I have no limits lately. Eating a lot of junk food. Since surgery I have been eating bigger portions than I should. I was convinced and still am that my surgeon didn't cut out as much of my stomach as she was supposed to. I know I had stomach surgery, not brain surgery, buy I did not expect to be able to still eat the way I am. Unfortunately I am able to handle everything. Once in a while, if I eat to fast, I vomit. Suggestions please on how to get back on track.. Don't want all my hard work to be wasted.

I was sleeved in November also and have lost 54# since sx. I usually eat every 3hrs but when i dont i get hungry. I'm eating more also but my nut said I would be as time progressed but nothing to what I used to wat before. I too have indulged in rhings I shouldn't. I will allow myself a sliver of something sweet when we eat out and I find that it helps. I carry beef Jerky, Pork rinds, and fruit for a snack. Sometimes thats the only way to gwt my fruit servings in. I eat more at home than I do when we eat out so I keep busy! I even bought a fitbit and i make it a goal to gwt my 10k steps a day! I feel ur pain bcuz its getting harder but I just keep my eye on the goal. Good luck and let me know if u find something else that might help!

highest weight 224#<br />sx weight 212# (11/20/12)<br />current weight 158#(5/14)

      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.
