I had started to wonder if I was the only one commenting on this thread. For some reason I always have to refresh my page to see new comments.

I will even list my bad days. I was out the box with carbs today. I had a half of pancake with sugar free Syrup. The fruit did me in. I just had to have a free day where I ate fruits. I still think I made better choices than I use to make.

Glad I found rhis thread. I have put on 7-10 lbs recently and want to get back to basics. I am going to three meals and one Protein Shake, at least 64 oz. of Water and am going to aim for 20-30 of walking at least four days a week. I do really well all day and then blow it in the evening hours. I just want to snack mindlessly and know that I cannot. Any thoughts or hints on how to stop craving sugar and carbs or at least cut them way down?

Sounds like my story; I had also gained 10. If you read through this thread you will find some helpful tips. Because 25 cabs and under was not realistic to me, I set my carb goal between 50 - 100, then I drop my carb goal down to 50. I was ranging in high 30 -50. Now it's seems to be easier to stay in the twenties range. After a while you will make better choices when it comes to carbs. I find my self paying more attention to the carb section. Since I have been doing this, I have eliminated my snacking during the day. As of today, I have lost 5 pounds. Good luck!

Maybe you can shift some calories or meals to later in the day....like start with your Protein shake after 9am then shift everything till later... that way your later snacking is actually a scheduled meal

You got this Zoii. We all know the struggle and starting is the most important step. Don't give up and don't get down on yourself if you fall, just get back up. Ask God for comfort and to remove that spirit of heaviness off of you and just seek Him for your healing, after all, He is in the healing business. Praying for you sis and rooting for you!

      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.
