Eating too much!



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 weeks in - still on liquids and my weight fell off the cliff. My scale tells me I'm down about 32 pounds since about 2 weeks pre-op. I'm really happy. And 3 people have told me they think my scale is accurate.

But, I think the weight loss is starting to level off. And I think that's natural. You always lose a bunch at the beginning of a diet. A lot of it is Water weight. Now comes the work. I'm hoping all this time on the liquid diet will help me in retraining myself in Portion Control. I'm survivng on 4oz liquid meals. I think smaller real food meals will make me feel full. (Fingers crossed.)

I was going to mention in my previous post - I've never been one to keep a journal or log. But I found an iPhone app, Lose It!, that I really like an I think is helping me. It can track not just calories but nutrients like Protein and exercise. It convienient and is helping keep me on the straight and narrow.

I have been holding steady at 197. I have been going through a lot of stuff the past few weeks and have used it as an excuse to over indulge in the wrong foods. I swear if I could solve my problems without a danish I would be happy. I have almost NO restriction. I can eat and drink at the same time amd I can tolerate thick breads pretty well. At this point it is total self control, not LAP-BAND®. I hoped to be at least 190 by now. I feel like I have failed yet again.

You've been doing great!:o I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. I pray all is well for you. Just remember that you were brave enough to take the initial step of changing your life! You are still that person! Dig deep!! The best of luck! P.S. I loooove danishes. I also love Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I want to go through the drive thru here all of the time, but I just keep riding pass it!:confused:

      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.
