Need to get back on track!



Recommended Posts

Well...lately things haven't been going as well as I would have hoped. I felt as though things had gotten better. But I had a couple of very stressful weeks dealing with my son. Now that I've received some help with that....I know that I'm off track. How do you get back on track to reaching your goals and you know you don't want to fail? I CAN NOT go backwards. HELP!!!!

Go back to basics. Eat Proteins and some veggies. When I want to get back on track and detox my body, I basically eat nothing but Proteins. I will drink my Protein drinks and have weighed out portions of my food.... If you need a little bit of help here is a basic Bootcamp Diet from LilMissDiva:

The BASICS BOOTCAMP:

For 5 STRICT DAYS I will eat only...

Proteins: Seafoods, Poultry and eggs, Dairies, nuts/seeds including Peanut Butter.

Veggies: Green only.

Fruits: None.

Breads/Cereals/Other Carbs: None.

Fluids: One gallon of Water (128 oz.) or Protein Drinks.

Avoid: Sugar and Sodium

Once the 5 days are over, I am pretty much over the Sugar Carb Demon. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate carbs! I do need them to live a healthy life and since I workout a lot it is important I have them. However, I need GOOD carbs. Whole grains, fruits, veggies... But I don't need processed sugars. White carbs, in cereals, breads, rice... etc.

It is very affective too........Let me know what you think. :P

Ms. Skinniness is Spot On! BACK TO BASICS... the first few days of carb detox may be hard, but will be well worth it. GLAD you stayed here, I worry about those that drop out...

Thanks so much for the Basic Bootcamp info. Im at yet another plateau and at this point my slow loss is even slower now. Not complaining because Im actually grateful for the slow and steady but Im 7 pounds from my goal of 100 lost and feel like I want to kick start myself again. Ill give this a go :)

If you hav egot back into habit of transfat and refined sugar and such it can be hard to supress that, our mind hardwires us to want these things - very similar to drugs. Lots of Water, sensible choices, just like you did at the beginning. Exercise if you can, seek support while you are back into transition!

Good luck.

      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.
