Death to the carb monster



Recommended Posts

This has been my worst week ever for me, I think this week I have been to laid back and let the carb monster back into my life. I have had a lot of chips, a couple of mini snicker ice cream bars, a couple of iced beers and lots of almonds and cashews. For the last 2 days my meals have consisted of home made steak or chicken Quesadillas with 2% cheese. I have been feeling like every other hour I need to eat something. I try to drink Water and Crystal light or a generic brand to help but no matter what I have done this week I feel like I need more. I didn't loose any weight this week and I was on a good role for quite awhile. I'm just hoping Monday I will be able to get back on track and I have finished eating the Blue Diamond Almonds,Bold, Wasabi & Soy. These things are so good and just slide right through. I know things will get better but if the scales start going up more than a few pounds I will feel like I headed back to my old ways. I just wanted to share my bad week with everyone, since I have had a lot og good progress but not this week.

Thanks for reading .

Hang in there. I've had to fight the carb monster a few times myself. I find that the more sugar carbs I eat, the more I crave them. To break the cravings, I go back to my old Atkins diet and eat boiled eggs, lean pork and chicken breast. Along with good carbs like yellow squash, Beans and brussel sprouts.

Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
