I broke my short lived stall



Recommended Posts

I really wanted to avoid my stall, so I started upping my calories and low and behold I lost another 9 lbs.

I started eating soft frozen custard each night. Just a couple of scoops. I feared I'd gain weight. I went to the Dr. and weighed and nope 9 more lbs gone.

I've tried hard to consume 1200 calories a day and boy its a challenge.

I'm down to a size 33 now and my shirts fit, no more man boobs.

I went to a different bank branch than usual and they know me but I haven't been in there in over 2 months. They didn't recognize me. They asked for my ID and I thought they were joking. Then the manager comes running out there and stops them and apologizes to me and then tells me how good I look. This made me feel great and I asked why they didn't recognize me... one of the tellers said you look...umm... then I chimed in and said...thinner? I wasn't offended.

If this keeps up I'll be at my goal of 200 lbs by around January to February.

I've taken control of life for once and it was the best thing I've ever done. I finally see what it feels like to be thinner, to not run out of breath, to have an unstoppable sex drive, to be attractive again and have people staring me up and down... and while its conceited I know what they want and what they are wondering LOL.

Yes. And i'm thinking about going to get more custard. Who would have ever thought upping your calories would actually help you lose weight.

The only other issue I'm having is liquid intake. I can't get that number high enough.

I'm getting plenty of Protein and my hair is growing too fast but I'll blame all the Jello.

      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.
