Good old faithful to hive weightloss a kick!



Recommended Posts

Hi losers

Pleeeaase help me! I am 2 months out and my weightloss has become very slow.

Please share with me what you are eating on a daily basis that you know really gives your weightloss a shift in gear?

I am very bad with trying to figure out what to eat. Perhaps i eat too little. And tend to eat the same thing over and again.

Please share your old faithfulls you come back to again and again and so all of us can get new fresh ideas from each other and give the scale a kick in the butt!

;-)

Thanks

I'm sure you'll get many responses regarding favorites but I would echo Kristy - are you logging your food? Very, very powerful. If you are or if you start, you'll never again say "Perhaps I eat too little" because you'll "know" exactly what you are eating. Not only in terms of calories, but Protein, carbs, fat, and a myriad of other things.

Slow weight loss can be the result of not getting enough calories which your body reads as a famine situation. Or it obviously can also be the result of too many calories. And in some cases a result of insufficient Protein. Logging your food allows you to manage your weight as opposed to your weight managing you. I lost 130 lbs in 13 months averaging 1294 calories a day and 95g of protein. I'm not suggesting that those numbers should be your goals, just that you should have a way of knowing that you are meeting the goals your medical team has given you.

My Fitness Pal has an excellent app that you can add to your phone. It's quick, it's easy and it probably has the largest food database on the market. Try it for 90 days and you'll never go back to guessing again! You're gonna love the new you!!

      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.
