Totally Blew It....



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 weeks out, and have been in a stall for 10 days. I have been so frustrated! Yesterday my frustration culminated in me compltely blowing my diet. I ate a bag of M&Ms, and a piece of cake. I thought I was done, then I came home and somebody had left a whole plate of cupcakes on my counter for me. I knew I couldn't get them all down, so I just ate the frosting off of them.

I got up this morning, and guess what? After no losses in 10 days, I lost 3 pounds! Crazy!

Now I don't feel quite so guilty (although I know I shouldn't do that again!).

Omg that is wrong on so many levels! :P

I'll be right back to yell at you, I've been in a stall for a month and I'm running to the store to buy m&ms and frosting :D

Haha, don't do it!! (get the food, or yell at me!)

OMG.. Licking the frosting off cupcakes is soooo me!

And it is weird how when you eat a no no food you tend to lose.. Maybe it's from guilt ;)

Imma going to yell! :P Because I know if I tried that I would gain ten pounds over night!

I have heard of people in a stall doing a high fat diet to kick start weight loss again...

But I don't know??

I don't know but I'm pretty sure I would be happy just licking your face and smelling your breath after eating that....but I'd probably gain 5 pounds just doing that......

Sheesh.....Most days I'm so happy with my sleeve and some days, like today, I'm one salmon patty away from the nice young men in the clean white coats that are coming to take me away..... :wacko::blink::o

Eat whatever you want it it fits within your daily allowed macros(Protein,carbs,fats). You lost weight because the added calories gave a little boost to your metabolism. I usually go 3 days eating below 60g of carbs from good sources and then on the fourth day eat over 300g of carbs from anything I want... keeps my metabolism charging along. I hIt a stall every couple weeks but nothing a boost in Protein and calories won't fix.

Your early out so IMO I would focus on keeping your metabolism working hard rather than restricting calories to unhealthy level. Its not so easy getting your metabolism working again at normal levels.

I have also noticed that when i hit my stalls if i eat some bad things, one time i had some pizza, that it ends my stall faster. Now like others, i don't recommend doing this, and it's not something i practice regularly. Usually i just try to up my intake of good foods, i usually end up feeling like all i've done is eat ( healthy foods mind you), and then my stall ends. But man frosting sure sounds amazing!

I've actually noticed the same thing with stalls. Ill pretty much follow my low carb diet for months perfectly and then hit a stall. If I eat something naughty my stall tends to break. I think it's just changing it up.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
