My problem: I am not drinking enough Water, I can't stomach Protein Shakes and I seriously can eat what ever I want without feeling any negative side effects... to a fault. I only feel full faster. I wish my stomach made me sick or I had problems eating things. It's all about self discipline which if I had in the first place, I wouldn't have needed this surgery. I work out and run on my treadmill. I was on a stall so I quit working out and weight finally started to fall off. Perhaps I was not getting enough good calories and of course need more Protein and less carbs. I really need to start anew and get my nutrition in gear and resume my work outs. A few weeks ago I actually ran 3 miles without stopping. Never being a runner, that was a huge accomplishment for me. Now if I could just eat right and drink more water, I could maybe get this weight falling off faster!!!

[Debrry 32]

Girl! You are not a slow loser! I had surgery 1/17 and am down 33 pounds...15 of the 33 were with the liquid diet. So I have only lost 18 since surgery. VERY FRUSTRATING!!

Yeah! Someone like me!! My surgery date was 1/21 and I've lost 12 pounds!! I just don't get this!!

I'm a slow poke too. My best days for losing are the ones with protien shakes and Water. No stupid carbs - like mashed potatoes, fruit juice and sweet smoothies. I keep gaining and losing the same 2 pounds. Ugh! One-derland is just two pounds away but I can't seem to break through.

Hang in there. I share your frustration, even though we both know slow and steady wins the day.

seems like if you have a lower bmi it's slower....

[ladyred312 17]

I'm really strict about eating just three meals

Typically Breakfast I have a spoon of Peanut Butter w/ banana or apple slices or I scramble one egg w/ ham cut up into it

lunch I usually roll deli meat in lettuce w/ fruit on the side or I'll eat a 100cal flat bread with deli meat lettuce n mayo...

dinner I'll eat whatever... I pretty much never have cut carbs out completely but it should never be what ur meal totally consists of... If I eat pizza I get it with meatballs or chicken on top so I always get protein...
