I have told only my mom and daughter. The two friends I mentioned it to said I was crazy. So, Im headed to Mexico with my mom and daughter and ready to live again! If people ask, I will say diet and exercise. Im done with judgement and opinions.
One word that says it all.....HIPPA. My business is my business, not everyone else's. I'm a very private person with everything. But, to each their own. Everybody is different.
Seven weeks out. Sleeved 4/13 of this year. I have been lucky I guess for hunger issues have never been severe. Honestly my biggest fear is not having what I thought would be a real restriction. I could still eat more that I am allowed and thus have forced myself to weigh everything I eat with a kitchen scale. I don't suffer from heartburn and haven't needed to take Pepsid or some other antacid. I think that is because I don't eat any processed foods. Everything I eat is cooked at home, weighed, and calories and Protein content are monitored.
I eat 4 ounces of Protein three times a day and none of that protein is from processed foods like lunchmeat, hotdogs, etc. Breakfast is usually a Premier Protein shake or two eggs scrambled. lunch is 4-5 hours later usually consists of 4 ounces of tuna fish, cooked chicken, a left over hamburger from the night before, or some other protein from something that had a mother. dinner is 4-5 hours later and again 4 oz of protein plus 1/2 cup of vegetables. I'm getting in 64-80 ounces of Water which really cuts any hunger I might have between meals. Next week I get to start 1/2 cup of fresh fruit.< /p>
I think getting in the Water, exercising 30-60 minutes a day and avoiding dairy, caffein, processed foods, carbs, sugar, helps stop excessive hunger. I've lost 42 lbs and am thrilled with my progress. I did have a stall at three weeks and had to go back to liquid Protein shakes twice a day to break the stall but since then the weight has come off at about 3-4 lbs per week.
