"Eat more chicken" [like the commercial says].
You don't eat steak, etc., so I think you should eat as much fish, chicken as possible for a bit. Protein only. You need to break your carbs completely. Cold turkey. No carbs. No sugars (not even in fruits, etc)
I don't lose weight, and didn't do well, with the shakes or anything with Splenda/sucralose in them. Maybe cut those out and see how you do.
But you've activated your carb-craving cycle and it can be a bear to break it. (I had a potato chip thing for a good bit; still fight with them when driving long distances).
Fill up on Water, tea, etc., and Protein flesh. A few days of steack and bacon sound good to me, but that's not your thing; so fish, crab meat, chicken, eggs. No CARBS. NO SUGAR. Water, tea.

I thought everyone might be interested in seeing these. I've kept track of my progress throughout my weight loss, with weight and measurements.
I'm pretty much at goal now and you can see the difference from start to finish. I literally have lost half my size.
I started at 250 highest weight, I would like to stay between 115 and 120 now. I'm 5'6 and 35 years old.
  

Well here is the night before surgery and 12 weeks out. Down 59 from day of surgery and 74 from highest weight a few weeks before. 70 more to go!!!!

Like most I still have a hard time telling how much progress has been made when I look into the mirror. Then I am reminding when I see myself in pictures.
Here I am a year ago at my heaviest and next to a picture taken yesterday.

Tomorrow is my 10 months post op. I have lost 100lbs + from my heaviest weight . Used to be a size 18/2X and I am now a size 2/S (xs is some brands ????) I couldn't be happier about my new healthier lifestyle . It has not been easy but it has been the best decision I have made.
