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:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
