Pulled pork. Came right back up. Now I'm trying a Protein Bar. I feel like I'm in reverse. Lately I've been only able to tolerate softer foods.

I tolerated alot of things right after surgery that I dont now. I wonder why that is?? I used to eat tuna salad, fish, and chicken salad and now none of the sit well.

I noticed when I would have a big stall it was because I wasn't eating enough and as soon as I would up by food even by a half an ounce my weight would start dropping again. My dr told me not eating enough is just as bad as eating too much.

Ok' date=' I feel like I'm being way to strict with my diet. I read on here all the yummy food people are having and I really tend to eat the same things. I avoid carbs like the plague (about 30grams or less a day) and about 60-70grams of Protein. But in order to reach protein goal I have to drink two shakes. MFP is set to 500 cals 11grams of fat, 38 carbs 10 sugars and 63 protein. Lately I have been finding I've been going over my fat and sugars which makes me nervous. But I couldn't imagine eating some of the things I'm seeing on here and sticking with my mfp values. Do I change my diet and mfp? What are everyone else's values set at on mfp?[/quote']

I was told to not concern myself w anything but carbs ( but of course being aware of healthy choices). So 20 carbs per day tops. And just eat until satisfied. This works great for me because I crave carbs like crazy when I overdo them. This is seriously the first time in my life I have not had insane cravings:)

You NEED carbs for your brain function' date=' BTW! 80-100 is still considered "low carb". You also want to make this a "lifestyle"... Do you see yourself eating 500cals and 30 carbs for the REST OF YOUR LIFE?? Probably not, but I'm sure you coul adjust your life to 800-1200 cals and 80-100 carbs and make it an actual lifestyle instead of a "diet". Stay far far away from the "d-word" because you're only setting yourself up for failure. Diets are short term, we need LONG TERM results, which is where a new way of living comes in. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> good luck![/quote']

My carbs are very low now but you go up slowly on carbs once your goal weight is achieved:)

So had cheese cake factory today:). I got an appetizer. I forget what it is called but it was shrimp and vegetables in rice paper with a peanut sauce and chili sauce. Delicious! I only ate a fourth of it and it was only six dollars ! I also had about one fourth of a low carb cheesecake- quite good!

We went to Wolfgang Puck's pizza Bar. We ordered the prosciutto appetizer. It had the prosciutto, arugula, balsamic, some sort of soft cheese similar to mozzarella... it was completely amazing.

      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.
