Need to go back to my old motto nobody got fat eating a reeses cup they got fat from having the whole bag.

You just ate one bag? Heck i would stock up at Halloween with those big tubs from Sams! That and M and M's put me in the cardiac ward for surgery then in the fat guy surgery ward!

I have done a great job of listening to my body. Since surgery I have developed a habit of sneezing just before I am full. My sneeze is the warning sign to stop. After that its 1/2 more bites at max. I am never concerned with overeating at meals but with the sleeve you can eat around it by snacking which was never a weakness for me but its enough to stall weight loss.

While I have spent the past 2 months in a stall the past two weeks I have found myself snacking a lot more partly because I am no longer seeing the results. I am aware its happening and am trying to stop it early.

My confession

I am a chocolate and Peanut Butter *****.

Now that I said it in public forum I feel better but I dont want it to interfere with the weight loss. Burn me at the stake I am a WLS sinner and going to hell.

I dont ever want to go back to where I was but part of why I wanted the surgery was for the natural reminder to stop eating not so I made eating a chore. Nothing wrong with the measure weigh and log community but its something I detest.

Im still searching for those that have achieved long term results with a balanced approach.

You are doing phenomenal. 😊 be consistent not perfect

I’ve searched for people that lose weight/maintain effortlessly. I have not met one yet. Some take a moderate approach and others more discipled. We all have our own path with no judgment. You can guess your calories/macros or have more control by logging.

Hope you break the stall soon, Weight loss may slowdown as you get further out from surgery and when you have less fat to burn.

      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.
