2 month stall - I gotta do better!



Recommended Posts

This is a fear for me. Those cravings are worse for me when I have PMS. It seems the older I get, the worse it gets. I usually snap out of it after a few days and go back to my healthy eating. I am due for surgery on August 26th and I cannot wait. At least I can have sugar free pudding and pops as a snack. I think that will help me with my sweet tooth, I hope.

At least you know what the problem is. Let the cravings go and go back to the basics. You will see the scale move then.

I think that my stall has definitely been broken. I'm 10 pounds less than when I started this thread! I gave up the pastries, which wasn't hard at all...they almost make me feel sick to think about eating them now. I tried to give up the pretzels, but still eat them every now and then. I've mainly gone back to just Protein and salads.

The down side? The size 16 pants that I bought last month are now getting too loose. Guess I'll have to go SHOPPING! Might just wait until the next 10 pounds come off first though.

      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.
