I Cant Stop Messing Up



Recommended Posts

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.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
