Sparatic Eating



Recommended Posts

I was banded 9/14. I eat plenty of Protein each day, at least 70 grams. I have had three meltdowns where I ate Desserts and did not really pay the price. They werre meltdowns because there were uncontrolled due to anger, or emotions etc. I havenot been drinking enough Water and woried that my carb intake is two high. Anyone else like this of can give me some suggestions. I seem to be losing weight but I want to do it the right way.

Eating things like tuna, Protein shakes, soft cheese but to much sugar and carbs with faina and or desserts.

Kind of venting so thanks for listening. Any words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.

If you are losing you are prob doing a great job. Having a bit of a dessert here and there is not the end of the world.

If you find that you are eating more carbs than you would like to be then add more protien at the begining of the meal. Also, to feel fuller longer I hear that protien shakes are not the way to go, Maybe try some oatmeal with protien powder in it instead of sugar???

Never beat yourself up for a few indulgences every now and then. As hard as you work, you deserve an occasional treat. As long as you are still losing weight, you are doing something right. Just keep in mind that for every indulgence, harder work will be required. I have an occasional small bowl of ice cream or a piece of cake. I just remember to do an extra five to ten minutes exercise. It is all about moderation. Good luck to you!

Never vanquish yourself up for a few indulgences every now and then. As severe as you energy, you merit an occasional impact. As protracted as you are plant losing weight, you are doing something reactionary. Just reserve in remember that for every leniency, harder output faculty be required. I make an occasional minuscule construction of ice cream or a case. It is all virtually relief. Favourable chance to you!

Thanks for the support all. Just feels weird because I am certainly eating 75% less than normal but do not feel like the band is doing anything eventhought he doctor says that is why I am eatings so much less. I am looking forward to my first fill I guess to reassure me even though the doctor did to that everthing is working properly. I have gone from excited to grateful to scracred to nervous to sad to contentment 10 times each in no order during this ordeal. I am sure it is all worth it in the end.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
