K so, yesterday I thought I piggggged out. I had an egg for Breakfast, then half a grilled chicken breast (with a tbsp. of ranch for lunch), a serving(?) of cheddar popcorn, for dinner I went to this country kitchen place because it's that time of the month and I'm craving home cooking like crazy...I had 3 mini corndog bites...about the size of a silver dollar from my b/f's plate. few bites of mashed potatoe, and about 4 small bites of country fried steak. Then we went to TCBY and I got a pint of ice cream and ate a lot of it but I'm proud to say I had the will to stop and put it away. Anyway this is a LOT more than I usually eat(thanks cravings!) but I was certain I was going to gain weight and I ended up dropping a pound after not seeing the scale move in a few days....go figure...

Wow, the same thing happened to me last week. The scaled had not moved for a couple of weeks! I think we totally confuse our body and it doesn't know what to do. If you have been strict for a while, your body might be thinking "hey, maybe she's not starving herself". Hopefully, we can keep those "pig out" days to a minimum. Good Luck!

The plan works MUCH better when you mix it up. You also ate a lot of Protein. That puts you in ketosis. You dont want to do that all the time, but it helps when you mix it up occasionally.

      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.
