What to eat?? Losing hope

[EzekielsMommy 0]

Okay..so I got the surgery done June 9th....I have lost about 11lbs since then. I know weight loss is super slow but hey iths something. I have been doing zumba about 3-4 times a week, counting calories (about 1200 a day), and I have 8.3 in my band. I was wondering of someone would like to share their blog or food diary to see what I'm doing wrong. If i eat slow enough and take small bites, it can go eat with no problem and feel full faster...but not exactly feel full longer...what am I doing wrong??? Any type of help would be greatly appreciated.

p.s. Has anyone gone through a slow weight loss but finally it's turned around?? I need some hope ....also has anyones Dr' prescribed any diet pills with Lapband?

Friend me on myfitnesspal.com and you will be able to see my diary, although I will say I have been very fortunate on the weight loss side, not slow at all.

I eat 5 to 6 times a day and eat between 800-1000 cals a day. I also go to curves 5xs a week and have also increased my walking from 2 miles to 5 6 days a week.

Hi loosing slowly really sucks, I seem to do better eating low carbs, I would suggest you meet with your Nutritionist again. For me I have to eat low carbs, high Protein,

You should keep your carbs under 100, I know you are working out a lot and some would say you need more calories, but if you up them make sure they are with protein.

I am 2.5 years out would have liked to have lost more but my weight is now stable. I seem to loose in 10 lb implements and have to get really strict with the carbs to get the scale to move.

Good luck and see make an appointment with the nutritionist you meet with before your surgery.
