16 Days was the day good or bad?



Recommended Posts

I woke up around 12 pm took all my pills/vitamins as soon as i woke up.

At about 2 ate a hot dog with shredded cheese [cut it up into small bites and chewed really well] Everything went down good no problems.

Drank a lot of Water in between then at about 8 pm felt a little hungry so went out and got my self a small wendys chili. Still haven't finished it, No problems going down.

Feel really proud simply because i really starting to learn when enough is enough and stop i also am stopping from being so scared of food. I can't stay on Protein Shakes forever i just can't handle the taste sorry. I started this journey at 414.5 i weighed my self today i am now 379. :D Just wondering if today was good or bad.

If you ate 2 hot dogs and some chili you didn't come anywhere close to making your min Protein goal. I think most on here are supposed to get a min of 60 protein to stay healthy. I do eat hot dogs too...but not very often. They are higher calorie and low protein. I buy a rotiserie chicken and eat on that for several meals a week. 2 oz is something like 43 calories and 14 protein. Hot dogs have around 120 calories and only 4-6 protein. I also am a low carber so I dont do Wendys chili. I would start a my fitness pal account, if you dont already have one. This will keep track of all of the food that you eat and let you know where you are nut wise for the day. Did you recieve a plan to follow from your doctor? Are you meeting those goals daily? Good job knowing when you are full... And good luck with your journey!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
