Gained 2lbs



Recommended Posts

Okay I had my 3rd fill and I gained 2lbs. Now I must accept resonsibility, because I know I have made the worse food choices this past six weeks. I've even been drinking, wine :thumbdown: and mojitos. Forgive me (I'm holding my head down in shame). Now I can two 1 of two things at this point. Feel sorry for myself or be greatful that it was only a 2lb weight gain and get off my butt and do what I know is right. I choose to get off my butt and do what I know is right. I didn't go through all this for nothing I tell you that. The surgery, time off of work, the money I've invested So today is a new day for me and I'm going to start making the right choices. and move forward. My birthday is July 23rd and I will be 43 years old. My current weight is 262,. My goal is to be at 225 by my birthday. That is a weight lost of 37lbs in 3.5 months. That is something that I should be able to do. So here I go...

Hope to hear from you ladies soon. Our board was one of the most happening spots and now I hear crickets when I sign on ...

Those cocktail calories are sneaky because they don't fill you up. Congratulations on taking evasive action at the 2 pound gain and I know you will be successful at arriving at your B'day goal.

I am SO glad you checked in!!!!!;) I was up 2 pounds too and I was doing the same thing drinking and eating out too much and not making wise choices and not exercising! You goals so great and I will check in daily too. Maybe we can post menus/journals to help with accountability!:thumbup:

Hello everyone!

I too have had some struggles. Its funny, cause you think that once you take the big step of having the surgery, is that you won't have the struggles with food. WRONG!!!! I am trying to do better about my food choices as well, but I have truly had my moments. The weight is moving so slllooooowww.

My birthday was last weekend, and I truly got it up, and I drunk more than I care to really discuss. :laugh:

I am back in the saddle now. I use to cook a lot of Soups. It really worked for me, especially during the weekday. So I am back slow cooking my meals. I plan to make a few different kinds, and freeze them. I don't want to have to count calories, but I am wondering is that really the best thing.

I also need to do my best to get on this site, cause it really helps. I guess I wished that there was much more discussion going on, but I have to put my part in to make that happen.

I will be here to offer support to all the sisters that need it, in hopes of getting some encouragement myself.

cheers

      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.
