Stuck For The First Time!



Recommended Posts

WOW, that hurt! I have not felt that before! Just had my third fill last Friday and never had restriction. Now I do and holy cow what a difference! Was eating a piece of blueberry muffin for Breakfast and bam, felt like someone was stabbing me in the back. Hurt like h€{{! Should I do liquids? Still fell it a little!

Your Blueberry muffins in the AM days may be over. drink Water if it goes down lucky you , are you sliming ...if so go to the bathroom lean way over and it should slide out if not drink some water and repeat process of leaning over, Now that you are feeling restriction chew chew chew . Things like muffins are probably not on your plan at this point PROTIN FIRST....... Bands are usually tighter in the morning......Good Luck let this be a learning experience...

You are right! Def a learning experience! I think my bread days are over! Before this full I could eat whatever I wanted, of coarse proper choices! Not any more! No slim! I am sitting in the a auto shop, really no options! But you are right! Hunger sometimes gets the best of ya!

Actually, it doesn't mean you can't have bread anymore. I have great restriction and still eat things like bread, rice, and Pasta daily. I just take very small bites, chew it until mush, and pause between bites.

With that said, I don't attempt bread in the mornings. I am way too tight when I first wake up. However by lunch time I am fine to eat whatever I want.

Good Luck!

Why Protein first?

Protein fills you up and lasts longer. I can't eat bread toasted or otherwise . Take it slow eat small bites and pause between each bite. When you feel the restriction stop eating don't force it. Good luck I have had my band for a while now n am at 5 ccs in a 10 cc band. Feel good n losing again after a long stint of gaining :(. Good luck to you! I Am down 70 since the beginning n want to lose 75 more n keep it off!

Trying keeping a box of Protein bars at your place of work. Check the calories. But they do help with the hunger. Look for the Protein count as it is the protein that keeps you full.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
