September Sleevers...! Come on in and chat!



Recommended Posts

I'm having a hard time with being hungry too. Today I've already had 68g of Protein and still feel like I'm starving and every time I turn around my friends on Facebook are talking about food' date=' posting food, or eating food, plus I never paid attention to how many food commercials were on tv until now!! The only thing keeping me going right now is knowing my surgery is on the line if I don't do it! If anyone has any suggestions on getting through this...I'm totally open to them!!![/quote']

You are right, food commercials are a dime a dozen nowadays and it's torture to us folks who are trying to better our lives. Just tell those commercials to f*ck off and that you're not going to make me cave!!!! Keep our eyes on the prize. That's my suggestion.

I'm scheduled for this Wednesday 9/18, I'm pretty nervous for the fact that I don't want to lose too much can't seem to do it on my own, I currently weigh 179 and I don't want to get below 140, I've read stories where people have lost 30 pounds only a few weeks after surgery, I hope I'm not one of them.

I added Protein Powder to some Tomato Soup. Also, I have been drinking a lot of chamomile tea. I can have non starchy veg anytime so that helps a lt. I am sick to death of Protein Shakes.

I keep reminding myself of the post from the woman who felt really good after surgery and attributed it to following her pre op diet.

Ok today I'm doing a little better with the diet. I called my doc and he doesn't want me taking any appetite suppressants because he said they would interfere with the heart during surgery. So he told me I can have extra veggies when the hunger pains gets unbearable. I am allowed tea also, I went out and got some green tea with pomegranate for my keurig machine and it is great! I hate tea without sugar, but I used one splenda pack and its awesome! I can do this! I have done 30mins of exercise so far....I have the walking dvd with leslie sansome, good workouts on it. I will try the vegetable broth and see if I can manage that. The Atkins shakes are very good especially the cafe caramel, but not the strawberry one! I don't think anyone would like the strawberry. It comes out thick, and has a texture of spoiled milk! I gagged and couldn't finish. All the chocolate ones are good and my doctor recommends 3 a day. For a 4 pack at Walmart they are $5.63. Be sure to look for the ones that says coupon inside. The coupon is $2 off two 4 packs, and the cashier let me open the box and use them at checkout.

      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.
