7months out 135lbs DOWN!



Recommended Posts

For anyone who's about 6 months to a year out...what does a normal day look like for meals? I feel like I'm falling back into my old eating habits and want to avoid that! What about raw veggies?

My year is almost here, 1/15/14 and my appetite is a funny thing. I still eat an egg in the morning sometimes a piece of bacon or toast as well. lunch I can eat a whole 6 inch sub from subway some days. Some days I get 3/4 of the way thru it and have to stop. I always do turkey with a bunch of veggies. I love sandwiches for lunch and when I don't eat subway I just make it on regular bread and that's what I can fit. For Snacks I LOVE raw veggies! Carrots and cucumbers, celery and broccoli. I also love to eat a few tablespoonful of hummus with a few pita chips. For dinner I can fit a chicken thigh minus skin with about 1/4 to 1/2 cup cooked veggies. I also will do fish or some other meat, 4-6 ounces with some sort of veggie. Usually broccoli. I put it in a pan, drizzle olive oil on it and some seasonings and bake it, holy cow that's delish! I can definitely eat more than I could in the beginning but I am still limited. For me it's all about making better choices when I eat. My weight loss has been kind of slow. I've lost 137 lbs to date, but I am still losing so I'm happy.

      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.
