I was doing so good for the first two months and now I find myself snacking and craving junk. A couple Cookies here and a few cheers there. Help! I need some support to get back on track. I had surgery may 28th and have lost 60 lbs since then and still have 65 left to go.

When I feel the desire to snack I eat Greek yogurt and P3 Protein packs from Oscar Meyer. Don't give up. 60 pounds is wonderful!

I was sleeved just before you. 60# is great!! Don't get too frustrated with this new phase, it too will pass.

I buy Quest Protein bars for when I want something sweet. The chocolate ones are pretty good and so are the lemon. I also snack on watermelon squares, cheese squares, and saltines with laughing cow cheese wedges. I dont snack much though because I use fluids instead .... Protein drinks (nectar has great fruity ones!) or SF Water drops/flavors like raspberry lemonade help too.

@@Pinkgirl1234, I thought that too. But I can tell you from reading this site for over a year, many people , including myself, have hunger pain that comes back-full force. It helps we have the restriction but it's so easy to snack every few hours. The key is to pick something healthy.....and that can be a battle.

Hello, how about change your snack to healthy Snacks. Instead of sodas drink Water. You can do this you've done it already. Dont forget exercise no minimum 4 times a wk. your goal is right around the corner. If the others can do it you can do it too ????.

I can also relate. I do try to pick on Proteins and nothing else but once in a while I have a sweet! I try to do the right things but sometimes those Snacks and cravings are too strong! Weak moments happen. I want to be good all the time but it is hard! Struggle daily!

Tell me that my weakness for chocolate will subside when the hormone is removed.

Between chocolate Protein Shakes, chocolate Protein pudding and chocolate calcium chews, I haven't had very many days when I haven't had chocolate since my surgery,

      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?

      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.
