Totally Blew It....



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 weeks out, and have been in a stall for 10 days. I have been so frustrated! Yesterday my frustration culminated in me compltely blowing my diet. I ate a bag of M&Ms, and a piece of cake. I thought I was done, then I came home and somebody had left a whole plate of cupcakes on my counter for me. I knew I couldn't get them all down, so I just ate the frosting off of them.

I got up this morning, and guess what? After no losses in 10 days, I lost 3 pounds! Crazy!

Now I don't feel quite so guilty (although I know I shouldn't do that again!).

I'll be right back to yell at you, I've been in a stall for a month and I'm running to the store to buy m&ms and frosting :D

Haha, don't do it!! (get the food, or yell at me!)

OMG.. Licking the frosting off cupcakes is soooo me!

And it is weird how when you eat a no no food you tend to lose.. Maybe it's from guilt ;)

Imma going to yell! :P Because I know if I tried that I would gain ten pounds over night!

I have heard of people in a stall doing a high fat diet to kick start weight loss again...

But I don't know??

I don't know but I'm pretty sure I would be happy just licking your face and smelling your breath after eating that....but I'd probably gain 5 pounds just doing that......

Sheesh.....Most days I'm so happy with my sleeve and some days, like today, I'm one salmon patty away from the nice young men in the clean white coats that are coming to take me away..... :wacko::blink::o

Eat whatever you want it it fits within your daily allowed macros(Protein,carbs,fats). You lost weight because the added calories gave a little boost to your metabolism. I usually go 3 days eating below 60g of carbs from good sources and then on the fourth day eat over 300g of carbs from anything I want... keeps my metabolism charging along. I hIt a stall every couple weeks but nothing a boost in Protein and calories won't fix.

Your early out so IMO I would focus on keeping your metabolism working hard rather than restricting calories to unhealthy level. Its not so easy getting your metabolism working again at normal levels.

I have also noticed that when i hit my stalls if i eat some bad things, one time i had some pizza, that it ends my stall faster. Now like others, i don't recommend doing this, and it's not something i practice regularly. Usually i just try to up my intake of good foods, i usually end up feeling like all i've done is eat ( healthy foods mind you), and then my stall ends. But man frosting sure sounds amazing!

I've actually noticed the same thing with stalls. Ill pretty much follow my low carb diet for months perfectly and then hit a stall. If I eat something naughty my stall tends to break. I think it's just changing it up.

      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.
