So Frustrated



Recommended Posts

I don't know what I am doing wrong. I haven't lost weight since this summer. I didn't work out or watch what I was eating in Nov or Dec. so I know why I didn't loose weight those months. So this month I have been watching what I eat. I haven't been working our so maybe I need to start doing that....I have the bodybugg. Which I have been hitting a calorie deficiency of at least 1000 cals a day. I have been eating about 1000-1200 cals a day and burning at least 2200 a day. I getting my Protein in. And I haven't lost a pound.

Are you drinking plenty of Water? It is necessary to filter the waste from your body.

Eating an excess amount of sodium can make your body retain fluids. Have you been keeping sodium levels below 5,000 mg a day?

Are you sure you are entering everything you eat in the right amount? Everyone underestimates.

Check out the documentation on the bodybugg site: bodybugg

If you count my milk I am getting enough Water. Other wise its about six cups a day. I am most definalty not getting too much sodium. I hate salt. I know sodium is in other things but still I am positive I am good on sodium. And yes I have been tracking like crazy.

After the first week I had my phone coaching and I had lost a pound so she showed me well this is how many calories you burned and this is how many calories you probably ate. Opened my eyes and I was like OK I have to write down EVERYTHING. So I have.

One non-scientific way to tell if you are getting enough Water is that by afternoon your urine is clear and not yellow.

Stay positive, your weight may all fall off at once.

I don't know if I can add anything else. It sounds like you are doing everything right.

I burn an average of 1,500 calories more than I consume which averages to about 3 pounds a week. Some weeks I only lose 2 pounds and other weeks I drop 6 or 7 without doing anything different.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
