I can't stop messing up. And I keep givin into temptations. Make me stop. I am a little over five months out and I'm starting to fail and I'm scared.

How do I stop and get back on track? Anyone else experience this?

You need to go back to the basics, Cut carbs out completely and stick to protein and vegetables also when you are about to slip, think about the reason that you had the surgery. Remember that you only fail when you give up. Stay strong and stay positive.

When I was so mad about stalling for so long,I started cheating little bits too often.I had to stop sulking about it and decided to kick the fat's butt.I decided to up my Proteins to about 85g per day.

What I did was go back to Protein only for a week.Protein pancakes with sf syrup for BF,tuna or chicken for lunch,kebab for dinner.Salmon,lots of fish,beef Jerky,ect ect.

The only cheat was milk in my coffee and tea.O and the protein pancakes are sweet I would sometimes have it for dinner,felt like dessert to me.

After day one it was much easier and let me tell you I didnt put a restriction on my portion size but the sleeve surely did.I was very full and satisfied the whole time.

Just start doing more protein.Have a protein snack ready for when you feel like eating.You can do this.Let us know how its going!

Do you have a recipe for the protein pancakes? Any particular beef jerky?

How far out are you?

If you have bad stuff in the house, get rid of it!!! This was my biggest problem pre-op, I was still thinking that I could resist temptation. Now, when my family brings home bad stuff, they hide it, lol. Works for me.

Dessertmom is totally correct. It's time to go back to basics for 5 days by following LilMissDiva's Basic Bootcamp. Let me know how it works for you...

The BASICS BOOTCAMP:

For 5 STRICT DAYS I will eat only...

Proteins: Seafoods, Poultry and eggs, Dairies, nuts/seeds including Peanut Butter.

Veggies: Green only.

Fruits: None.

Breads/Cereals/Other Carbs: None.

Fluids: One gallon of Water (128 oz.) or Protein Drinks.

Avoid: Sugar and Sodium

Once the 5 days are over, I am pretty much over the Sugar Carb Demon. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate carbs! I do need them to live a healthy life and since I workout a lot it is important I have them. However, I need GOOD carbs. Whole grains, fruits, veggies... But I don't need processed sugars. White carbs, in cereals, breads, rice... etc.
