i havent lost any weight in a month now. i had my second fill on feb 26 and for some reason i am pushing the my limits. ive been making bad choices and eating to much. the fill didnt do anything for me like my first fill. after my first fill i couldnt eat much for 3 weeks then i could eat more after that. why am i so off track? each day i wake up trying to make that day a better choice day but i cant make it through a whole day without cheating. i am so disappointed in myself at this point, i know that i need another fill but until that happens i need to rely on eating better. i am trying to focus on my Protein intake again because somedays i dont get enough in, also when i was counting calories i lost weight. i just dont know why i was so focused at first and did well and now ive slipped into my old habits. in the beginning i had more restriction than now due to the swelling. i want things to be that way again.

OK, so you realize what you are doing (and not doing)... even if this morning started off horribly, start again now... like RIGHT now.

log your food, get the Protein in.

you've lost 36 pounds!!! that is amazing. you can keep going. you can do it.

36 pounds is a whole lot of weight - you have lost way more than me! Don't get discouraged! You'll get to the right level of restriction and find it much easier to stay on track. Be patient with yourself - the reason you had surgery in the first place is that you have issues with food. That isn't going to go away over night! Keep on working and keep getting the fills you need and you are going to succeed.

      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.
