Week 6 what it feels like

Pink Butterfly

Week 6 well I made it this far. Some times I feel confused..so much information out there so many opinions. Weight wise I loset -5.1 pounds last week bringing my total to 24 with the 9 pounds I lost 3 days before the operation I am at -33. That is good. I still struggle emotionally I wonder am I normal? What is normal? I know everyone is losing faster then me. I am able to eat more them most. I have no problem eatting two eggs but I try and eat eggbeaters less calories. I limit meal time to 30 minute and find the only way I get kinda enough is to eat supper slow and stop when I am somewhat satisfied can eat the whole serving but choose not to.

 

Foods nothing has really made me sick fish, shrimp, sashimi, yogourt all good. I try to drink one protein drink sometimes two can only put half almond milk one cup and YUCK too think. Fluids some days better then others trying to get my 8 glasses in.

 

Cheats... :wacko: Yes I am ashamed to say at 6 weeks I have already tried things I should not. I bought some Japanese pretzels supper thin 90 calories 11 carbs. I have been dying for something snacky. At whole foods I bought popcorn that is 35 calories a cup was shocked that I could eat 4 cups! Will stop buying that. Tried a small bite of a real cookie but tasted like crap so spit it out. If it doesnt taste good why bother? Like all things I am in a hurry to get to the next step need to take it step by step that is a challange for me.

 

some days I will be honest I do have buyers remoarse then I remember how unhealthy I was. Anyone who has not done the procedure yet I would reccomend writing down why your are doing this when later you second guess yourself you can read it. I am glad I did it and have to stay positive although you can see even in this area I am back and forth.

 

Dont know about anyone else but I feel very alone going through this. Every day I need to think check myself and make sure I am comitted. I still worry will it work? How come I can eat more then others? Why in the hell woud I cheat so early into it?

 

I have learned to take it one day at a time. I am not perfect but I am learning and trying I dont want to fail at this ~

You are only human! Don't be so hard on yourself. The diet is to stick to lean meats and veggies and plenty of water. This will bring the greatest weight loss. But we are all human and we all cheat. The weight will come off during the first year, but it is up to us to keep it off by changing the way we eat as a permanent lifestyle.

Nobody is perfect. If you fall, just get up again and remember why you are doing this. Try to focus on the goal. I wish you the best!!! We can do this!!!!

I'm at 7 weeks on Monday, but I am on soft proteins until week 8. Have had chili made with gr. sirloin, and tonight had some sloppy joe meat and did well. Can't stand eggs at this point, even though I like them before. Not sure why but I'll wait a few days and try again. Still struggling getting all the liquids in.
