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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
