Oct. 15, 2012 Sleeve Date



Recommended Posts

Saw my surgeon today...kind of discouraged. My weight loss is good, but he wants me to increase my calorie intake to 1000! I'm at 800 now. I don't want to...I'm afraid I'll stop losing weight. He also wants me to increase my Protein to 80 grams. I've been doing about 60. I'm so scared it won't work! I'm also sick of food. It's so limited what protein I can eat. I don't like eggs, pork, turkey, can't have soy or beef. Tired of chicken, fish, cheese, yogurt & Beans. He wants me to go back on the Protein Drinks. Yuck!! It feels like a step backwards.

Any food suggestions?

Try Protein powder and oatmeal splash of water- make a pancake with that

That doesn't sound too bad. The pancake I tried was gross.

I had a rough night last night. Family holiday dinner and SWEETS galore. I mean, it was ridiculous! My drug of choice is Cookies and there were literally six different kinds and it took every iota of willpower and determination not to indulge.

I hope that at some point in the future I can be an eat-one-cookie-and-be-fine kind of girl, but I'm not that girl today. It would've been like an alcoholic saying, "I'll just have one drink."

I was feeling sorry for myself last night, but I'm proud of myself today. :)

Good for you for resisting. I have not done so well. I had cookies, chocolate, carbs of all kinds. I had hoped to get sick, but it didn't happen. My mother-in-law even gave me chocolate for a Christmas gift. Can you say sabotage?! I'm a bit worried now that this won't work for me if I keep going down this path. I have to get back on track.

wow you've lost almost 70 pounds in 2 1/2 months! That is GREAT!

I need to update my weight but I'm just now reaching 50 lbs lost since Oct 15th. I have eliminated carbs and sugar and only eat lean meats and cheese with V8 for my veggies as Breakfast and evening Snacks.< /p>

Guess I should have included a quote but I was looking at page 13...

I did okay during the holidays. I had a piece of Savannah Taffy and then gave the rest away at work.

I have started drinking coffee again - Soy latte is my drug of choice with splenda. I try to do decaff during the week and indulge in caffiene on the weekend.

I had wine for the first time. I drank 1 glass and felt a buzz but it wasn't a happy buzz like I use to get. It made me exhausted and my muscles ached. No hangover and it was gone quickly... but I find that I don't like drinking like I use to. It isn't enjoyable to me.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
