A year out.... so what are you eating ?



Recommended Posts

So I am 11 months and am in a six month stall - not as dramatic as it sounds because I'm not eating what I should ( but not gaining, so yay for me ) . I am really busy at work and don't really have a lot of time, but need to add some variety

Any ideas of simple foods to eat? What are your examples of lunch or dinner ?

Hi outsidematchinside! I have enjoyed reading your comments for some time. Are you still tracking food or do you feel it is pretty easy for you now?

I know you have said you don't have a strong relationship with carbs - I'm not so lucky. I had read someone indicate they have kept their carbs to under 20. - I am thinking to try that - I haven't ever had a target like that - so I'm going to try it

I track every day. I track mainly to make sure I eat enough, not that I eat too little.

Never thought about tracking to make sure I am eating enough. What do you use? MFP?

I use http://www.loseit.com/

I hate MFP with the heat of 1000 suns. They allow so much user added content and people suck at math so bad, almost all the information in there inaccurate.Plus they charge a fortune for premium and their UX designers suck.

LoseIt has items that have green check marks next to them, those are verified. You can also easily add your own information, and make recipes etc.

I use premium and I like all the goal tracking and the badges. I'm still trying to get that 200 pound loss badge.

Their forums have a lot of useful information too.

When I am home I track on the PC, when I am out I track on my phone

It is way to easy to have a busy day, forget to eat and be too low on Protein.

Your " plan" is pretty simple - no fruits or anything else, huh. You have to love simplicity. I can see that in most of your posts too . Thanks

Try it out for a week and see if you like it. If you want premium it is $39.99 but if you hunt around the internet you can usually find it for 29.99

I actually eat a lot of stuff or it seems like it to me. I create my variety in cuts of meats and spices. I didn't eat pork for over 20 years and I started eating it last year for variety. I eat lamb, buffalo, all the fish.

I heard trying a Keto diet. It helps break a stall. God bless.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
