I take a long walk everyday just can't figure out what to do? Help me please

I eat when I'm hungry which is about every 3 hours but I always eat small amounts and eat my Protein first! BUT I will also eat whatever I want, just in small portions. I indulge in chocolate, the small ones, and even ice cream but just a small scoop and not every day. This whole process with regards to food is about Portion Control and learning that you CAN indulge in "bad" foods but in small amounts and along with a healthy diet! Listen to your dr. and eat away!

This topic made me chuckle because I eat stuff too. I am trying to stick to the high Protein low carb diet as much as I can but if I didn't have a treat once and awhile I would go crazy. I love that the sleeve keeps you from going overboard and I can eat one thing and be satisfied instead of the whole box or package!

i don't know when you were sleeved or your weight loss???

didn't post a ticker or profile?? :(

you joined the board on March 17th - if thats when you were sleeved you are 3 weeks along

or maybe you joined a few months??? since you were sleeved????

thats why more information is always helpful

if you are 3 weeks along - i find it "curious" that your doc said you could eat anything???

if you are a couple of months or so out and your doc said you could eat anything....its ok, but

theres a common expression amongst sleevers

"just because you can, doesn't mean you should" :o

this expression applies to "all" of us - newbies, people working towards goal - and veterans too!!!!

has your weight stalled for a few weeks and thats why you are concerned that you won't be loosing??? :mellow:

if thats the case - the story (my reply) is different

everyone has stalls -weight doesn't go down for days, weeks, and yes - eventually you might be stalled for a couple of months :angry:

never throw in the towel!!!!!

weight will go down :)

that being said - doc did tell you that all food is available in small portions

but...............

maybe use your judgement and decide not to eat certain foods - candy, Pasta, bread et al- full of carbs

giving more information would be helpful - then someone else can guide you better

good luck bud :)

I eat chocolate, ice cream & other "stuff" that I feel I shouldn't eat. However I do it all in moderation(i do have will power & "sleeve"). I have still managed to stay as gluten free as possible & eat a clean diet. I am still human:-) I have been very blessed to have lost 80lbs & need 38lbs to lose to reach my goal of 130!!!! Slow & steady:-)

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
