Eating too often



Recommended Posts

I really need to evaluate my situation. If I am still eating poorly after my fill, I am going to have to look into something like OA. I quit smoking three years ago, and really started eating. I need to really do something different. I am not eating just when I am hungry. I do recognize that. I also recognize that I am not drinking all of the Water that I should. I am trying to stay positive and say, At least I am not drinking soda anymore, or, at least I am not eating a whole pizza by myself! I am also about to get a treadmill, so maybe that will help.

Ugh.

Great idea on the treadmill 80's chick. I wouldn't be losing as quick without it.

Well, as I said before - I just needed to factor back in my mini Snacks throughout. Since then and in only a week's time I went from 247.5 to 240. Pretty neat!

I wish I was allowed a Protein Shake. My doctor told me that I am not allowed any more Protein Shakes. I did find a Protein Bar that is only 180 calories, 19 grams of Protein and only 2 grams of sugar. The bars taste really great. I think they are called pure protein. I found them in my store's nutrician center.

I had to stop my in between Snacks. Just for the last few days, I have exercised, drank plenty of Water and cut out the snacks and I started taking Benefiber (so I could go regularly) and I feel like I'm losing in my stomach. I think if I could get rid of the "apron" I could go down a size in my clothes. I now make sure I eat enough Proteins and veggies even if it's more than a 1/2 cup and I get full and then I don't want to snack in between because I stay full, sometimes 3 hrs and sometimes 4 hrs. I hope that I have lost a little. It is so discouraging to not lose, but I guess like everyone else, I have to step back and take a look at what I'm eating. So I think that the snacks weren't helping. I was even eating the 100 calorie snacks.

      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.
