I went to my monthly support meeting yesterday and got "yelled" at.
They think I'm too rigged with tracking my food, and I'm not eating enough carbs. Not that I should overload with carbs, but I should have more in the morning, and continue to eat a lot less of them in the afternoon and evening.As for tracking my food, they think I can't continue like I do, and think at one point it'll be what makes me gain weight again. That I'm not on a diet, and that I should build a normal relationship with food.

Man, oh man... I've lost about 5 lbs in the last 5 weeks. I'm only 7 out from surgery. I'm considering it a stall... and I'm super frustrated!
-
The more weight I lose the fatter I feel. Now I just look like some chick that had a bad breakup and gained 50lbs in year. *sigh*
-
what type of protein brand do you recommend? I'm currently taking Premier Protein and I want more options.

What's with all the bitching about not losing 10 lbs. a day? At least three new whines are posted daily. I have come to the conclusion that the psychologists who do evaluations are asking the wrong questions and not paying attention.
-
I, too, thought the weight would drop off me. I don't think the psychologist at my center - or anyone else for that matter - mentioned that it just doesn't happen that fast. Then you read about these people losing 30 lbs their first month on internet forums and you assume that happens to everyone. Nope....

I am delighted to report that I am official "overweight"--not "obese" I haven't heard those words since elementary school. Take THAT, Sister Mary Francis!

Just realized my BMI is in the normal range for the first time in 20 years.

Upper GI this morning for reflux. Surgeon wants to revise my sleeve to bypass.

14mo post VSG - No loss in over 6mo. Hate this!

I am so hella sick of protein shakes. Having to force myself to drink them to get my protein, as the powder makes pre-made pudding and yogurt taste funny. Won't get cleared for puree/soft until Wed afternoon. I'll get through this, but last night I seriously wanted to suck the salt off of a cracker my hubby was eating. LOL. Chew and spit makes more sense in my head now. LOL

Losing slower than I'd like but taking comfort in knowing I'm losing.

My new favorite high protein no sugar treat. Chocolate chai tea made with skim milk. It is delicious! Drinking a small pot right now!

Nervous about going to my one month post-op b/c the scale isn't moving! I am doing everything I am supposed to but has stayed the same since 1 week post-op. urgh!
-
Just realized I am no longer Morbidly Obese and not even Severely Obese - just plain ol' obese now (based on BMI anyway). Hmmm..... strange that actually sounds good?

Reached 185 lbs. this morn. 147 pounds lost in 11 months---this stuff WORKS!!! Lost 9 lbs. just this past week, amazed it's still coming off... :-)

I haven't been this light since 2003!!!

I really try not to compare myself to others, but I'm feeling jealous of the people who drop weight quickly. Especially when they weigh like 100 pounds less than me.

there are so many things that can affect how quickly you'll lose - age, gender, how much you have to lose, whether or not you lost weight before surgery, etc. I've been a slow loser, so I can relate, but as long as you're sticking to the plan, what more can you do? Your body's going to lose as slowly or as quickly as it wants to, and you only have so much control over that. As long as you're following the plan, you should be fine.
