Dinks97420, would you mind telling me exactly what you ate and when? How many protein shakes, when did you eat the refried beans and how much? This sounds doable to me.

Iam eating a good quality of cheese. My NUT told me I could have all I want, but Iam not eating all I want, just adding to things, like eggs. I havebern constipated for 3 days. Iam thinking it because of the cheese and not enough Water.

I weigh 311 pounds. Thank you. I think your right. I'll try drinking more Water Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

Thanks. I did weigh at the same time. I meet with my NUT the beginning of September. I'm terrified my clothes will be loser but my weight will remain the same. My insurance doesn't care if my clothes are loser, they just care about the number. Maybe I need to drink more Water? Not sure what is going on Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

Anyone have any ideas of foods to take with you when your on the run? I am usually really busy running errands during the day. My nutritionist told me to do 2 meat meals with vegetables, no fruit or starchy vegetables and 2 Adkins shakes. lunch is the hardest thing to plan for. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Ok, so my NUT told me I could have all the sugar free popcycles as I wanted. When I looked at the ingredients, it said that each 1/2 popcycles has 4 carbs? This is not making sense to me. There is no sodium, which is good, but the carbs can really add up Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

Good idea, but do the pure Protein Bars have carbs? Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App Thanks! Thats a great idea???? Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

So, I haven't been doing too well on losing my 15 pounds in 6 months like Molina requires. I have chronic knee pain. I believe the pain causes depression. I was also in a couple car accidents, which caused some frontal lobe brain damage. That's where your memory and organization and planning happen. I can't seem to plan my meals. I think the knee pain and depression are making it worse. The only thing I can think of is to start doing Protein shakes. They are a no brainer, no pun intended, I'd appreciate your thoughts and if any body knows the amount of Protein Shakes a day one should be drinking, that would be wonderful to know. If I could get the weight off and start exercising, I think that would help my brain injury? Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

Tgank you byako! Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App Thank you I meant Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App What do you eat for carbs? Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App -
Any suggestions on this? My dietician gave this to me today. I went out and bought Atkins meals and Protein shakes. Kind of spendy. Is any one else on something similar to this? She wants me to take the 15 pounds off quick. My insurance won't pay for the surgery if I don't lose the 15 pounds by October. She said I could have all the cheese, I wanted, I was thinking of putting it over the broccoli. I was also thinking of getting chicken breasts and cooking them and adding vegetables instead of ready made Atkins meals. Since I have a brain injury and have a hard time planning, she just figured popping a Adkins ready made meal in the oven, would be a lot more convienant. Any how, just wondering if anyone else has done this and if you have any suggestions you could add.. Thanks Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App

I really don't have any support. I think the t.b.i. may have led to depression as I keep to myself and don't have any real friends. I do worry what I will do after surgery for supplement and reminders. I have excruating knee pain and need a knee replacement, but the doctors won't touch it until I get the weight off. It's a vicious cycle. But, I do hope to get support on this website. So far, there have been a lot of caring, nice people, such as your self, that have offered support and advice. I really appreciate it. Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App -

Pre/Post Surgical Plans Are Not Required
northstar9148 replied to 4MRB4PHOTO's topic in Rants & Raves
I can't focus because of a brain injury. I would have loved it if I was given a packet of step by step instructions and attended classes. That would have been awesome. I just meet with the dietician once a month. The meetings are just kind of like, check ins. I don't get much out of them. I haven't been able to lose the 15 pounds my insurance wanted me to. Now, everyone is getting mad at me, but I don't don't feel like I had the support to begin with. She told me to do Atkins meals because I am very poor at planning because of the brain injury, but I am also, salt sensitive. Someone on one of the other posts told me that those, Atkins meals are loaded with salt. This is getting frustrating. I only have 6 weeks left and if I don't get the 15 pounds off, that's it.
