Recommended Posts

For what it's worth--I agree. Especially for us newer lb'ers...i always look to see what you, luluc and georgia girl are eating because it's usually good!! lol

i love being accountable on a thread where it's ok to do just that--even when i ate ceasar salad 3x last week:rolleyes:

well bozzj - you've thrown out some good recips lately & that buffalo sloppy joe is calling my name, cause i just LOVE blue cheese..Yum, Yum.

i love this thread cause i get a good idea of what others are eating & it helps me change things up.

I'm not banded yet but I am TRYING to eat like a bandster and I am still eating really healthy for the rest of this 6 month diet. I will be banded in November.

I want to lose weight before too you know. :thumbup:

Today

B - 30g chocolate honey bunches of oats with 1/2 cup 1% milk

L - 10 Lean Gourmet Buffalo chicken Bites

S - 1/2 cup lowfat cottage cheese

D - Grilled Chicken BLT salad

Also I am supposed to have between 1200-1600 calories so I have to eat more than some of the bandsters. That will change in November though. :wub:

Did good till this evening :cool2: ... Came home after being gone for about 4 hours and the inside of my house smelled like gas :thumbup: ... I think one of the kiddos was messing with the oven knobs before we left this afternoon because one of the burners was turned on (slightly) sooo hubby insisted it wasn't safe to cook or even use the microwave and we went out to eat instead. This after spending the morning making parmesan meatballs and smellin' em cook in the crock pot all day. Didn't get to enjoy them for dinner but I did snag a few for lunch! :thumbup:

Breakfast ~ Atkins Cafe Caramel Shake

Lunch ~ 3.17oz Parmesan Meatballs

Dinner ~ 1 Ground Beef Taco, A Side Of Beans & A chocolate Chip Cookie from Carls Jr/Green Burrito

b1: starbucks grande iced chai tea latte with skim :eek:b2: lol quaker cin. & spice oatmeal (eating now)

l: not going to be a good day!! co-workers are going to houlihan's to pick up potato Soup (with cheese & bacon)..and of course i MUST have a little--which is a good 500 calories for a small cup :thumbup:

d: leftover slow cooker corn chowder (this was really good).

All in all i'll still stay in the 1000-1100ish range, but my selections aren't good today. I guess it's better than my craving this morning for a bacon/egg/chz sandwhich from mickey d's :thumbup::eek::lol:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
