you should speak to your team and fully work out exactly what your putting into your body and what your burning up.

if your putting in too much and doing too little your wont burn it off and lose weight.

how this works is pretty much low calorie to use the stored fat as backup to burn off thats why we lose weight if your putting in enough for your body to run off of having alot of carbs etc your gonna burn it first or store it.

First, don't panic. Go back to basics. Start logging everything you put in your mouth. And measure your portions too. If you're not exercising...put your walking shoes on and get active. Remember why you did this and get back on track. Don't lose your resolve to be healthier. Take those vitamins! Very important at this point to start back taking care of yourself. Your body went through a major shock...it's still adjusting to the changes. Do check in with your doctors office or nutritionist...they will have good tips for you too. Hang in there...everyone is different..this won't last long.

I'm going back to basics tomorrow, I've lost myself somewhere. Have been very stressed panning a big 50th party

for my husband in March and have stopped doing me.... I log every day on MFP and stay under my targeted cars but I know my food prep has fallen back to old ways although my portions are very small, I think that has an effect on my stall also.

So any way I'm going to do just shakes for a few day to remember why I had this wonderful surgery and "tool" and

recalculate my efforts.

      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.
