But I still thought it wasn't enough. The dr spent almost 30 mins of unhurried chat with me explaining and encouraging me to look ahead....WAY down the line. He promised me that I WAS going to lose wt.
I had been feeling like a failure when I couldn't get the 80-90g of protein and would be a bit short on the 64 oz of water. I also was frustrated at all the May sleevers on here eating 500-700 calories. I was so hungry at week 3 on such a low calorie intake. I confessed that on some days I hit 1000 calories! He told me that even at 1200 calories, I would lose wt..
But in the end, he encouraged the basics.
3oz protein and 1/2 to 1 cup of sides. Try to get at least 20g protein each meal. Try to get 64 oz water in.
Chew Chew Chew. Eat slow. Eat less fatty foods. Stop at first sign of fullness.
These are rules I can live with.
I can do this.
I AM doing this!
In fact, I need to go in and adjust my Ticker, cause I'm down another 3# this week!
