This journey has its ups and downs. Believe I just passed 3 week plateau. I was told no bread no rice no Pasta must have 60-90 grams of Protein per day! I struggle constantly I find myself hungry and obsessed with food I have stick to the restrictions are a piece of candy here or there and keep up the fluids and exercise daily. These are my demons and I am trying to deal with them but is it hard and when is it going to be easier? I was told I would be hungry like this or crave sweets which I do sometimes. Having a semi meltdown

Wow, sorry you are having a difficult time right now. It's easy for me to say, as I have not walked a day in your shoes, (SD - Dec. 20th) but try to focus on the goals you set. The goal of this long journey and the end rewards. I know it's a struggle but food and sweets will always be here, so when you've reached your goals you can endulge a little. Stay focus for now. Best of luck. I hope this help, I feel for you.

I just hit week 6 and slowly starting regular foods. I am a massive addict. My boyfriend isn't really helping either. Don't stress yourself out. Get a really good chocolate Protein Shake, EAS or Premier Protein. Drink when you are hungry. You are supposed to eat 4-6oz every hour. Eat when you're hungry. If it involves a sweet or 10 shhhh lol do it. The whole thing is that you are in the healing stage. If you want I can give you some really good meals that totally feel like you are cheating but you're not.

I have tons! All with chicken breast.

I buy the Perdue individually wrapped. They are easier. Get taco seasoning broil the chicken then chop up add seasoning like you do with meat. Serve with avocado slices and sour cream. If you can eat bread then use a soft taco shell. Sooooo good

Get deli turkey breast chop up into small pieces add goat cheese (I use cranberry goat cheese) or feta cheese add avocado and small chunks of green apple.

Spray chicken breasts with Pam. Then cover in shredded parm cheese and broil. Serve with some kind of veggie

I also keep ready to eat mashed sweet potatoes on hand.

Desert - get redi whip fat free, choc rice cakes sprinkles and strawberries or blue berries. Put whipped cream on rice cake put fruit on whipped cream and add sprinkles. Feels do decadent but not. I also get sugar free pudding and make a faux sundae with whipped cream and sprinkles

I have more but tired of typing lol. Hope that helps

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
