Self Sabotage



Recommended Posts

At night I drink Protein hot chocolate. 90 calories - 15 grams of protein. The sweetness satisfies and for some reason, the hot drink makes me fuller than a cold drink. Go figure!

May I ask how you make your protein hot chocolate? :) Sounds yummy. Especially since it is getting cold.

Hey Lisa

Here's the link. It will take you to the friend referral once you sign up and you place your order there will be a place to use your "rewards"

For the 20 dollars off

I drink the Bari wise one but it seems most people drink the Proti Diet one in the jug it's a better value so I'm going to try that one next..

LauraVen, does it taste much better than say the no sugar added Swiss miss or keep you full longer? I get enough Protein earlier in the day, so I need to justify the extra cost before trying it.

Lynda it's been so long since I've had sugar free regular hot coco I couldn't say :P

It does fill my tummy though I like drinking it in the evening sometime before bed.

You know sometimes if I eat dinner early it just doesn't stick all night..

But if you are meeting Protein? And don't get hungry? It may not be worth it..

Well Ido get hungry, but looking for healthy, low cost ways to fill that need. That's why I wondered if it kept you more full than Swiss miss. Tonight after dinner I had two wedges of laughing cow light cinnamon cream cheese, spread on two graham crackers. About 200 calories.

I eat a Pure Protein Bar every night about 9. If I don't, I wake up hungry in the middle of the night and then I can't sleep and I refuse to eat in the middle of the night.

I snack often. I try to include Protein most of the time. String cheese helps or baby bell light cheese. Also I discovered Quest Protein Bars and order them by the box. They are all natural , 20 grams protein per bar and only between 160 to 200 calories. They have about none different flavors , some taste great other flavors are just ok. They use natural sweeteners and no sugar.

Nightime is the worst. I plan a snack and force myself to wait to a specific time in the evening to eat it that way I have something to look forward to. I plan a sweet snack that's what satiafies me. Weight watchers frozen treats are good but. Gotta find the ones with less carbs. The bari wise or nutri wise hot chocolate are also great. The best part of my plan for me is to satay busy so the past few months I have been doing puzzles u know 500 to 750 pieces something challengin enough but I will complete. That keeps my hands and mind busy (while watching tv). Also recently I have two nights a week when I say I am not eating an evening snack or I will NOT eat anything after 9pm. If I do this twice a week I have bugun to learn to control those late night grazing sessions. For me its all about controlling the fatty voices in my head and after two years sleeved its still not easy. Good luck

      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.
