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

      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.
