Recommended Posts

I am so FRUSTRATED! I've really been on track this week. I've been getting all of my Protein in, eating healthy foods, taking my vitiamins, drinking TONS of Water and have been to the gym every day (something i've NEVER done) this week and I'VE NOT LOST A POUND!

I just dont get it... I feel cheated. I went to a bday party sunday and turned down cake and ice cream. I've not touched the candy dish at work all week (which is saying alot for me). No ice cream at night for desert. I've really put forth more effort this week than I have in a LONG TIME.

I was really hoping this would get me back on track and start losing those last 8 pounds to get me to ONEderland.

Any advice?

Remember that you can get stuck. I find that I can go a week or so and lose NOTHING (gain nothing, either, which is good but still......)! Then, I get on the scale and I'm down a pound and a half. Go figure!

You just have to keep doing the right thing (and do yourself a favor and don't weigh every day), and it will happen!

It happens to me too but you have to stay in line with what you want. I stopped going on the scale.. I really just go on like x2 a month because I dont like to feel disapointed... but I continue...& think of what Im going to look like in 2 years.. :w00t:

Thanks for the advice. I'm a slave to the scale. I really am. When home on weekends, I find myself checking several times a day. I know that cant be healthy!

I guess I have to remember that even tho I've done so well this week, the week before I was BAD. Think maybe those croissants are catching up with me and that I didn't lose any this week because I would have GAINED had I not tried so hard this week? Hmmmmmm....

Think so?

      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.
