I was doing so good for the first two months and now I find myself snacking and craving junk. A couple cookies here and a few cheers there. Help! I need some support to get back on track. I had surgery may 28th and have lost 60 lbs since then and still have 65 left to go.

When I feel the desire to snack I eat Greek yogurt and P3 protein packs from Oscar Meyer. Don't give up. 60 pounds is wonderful!

I was sleeved just before you. 60# is great!! Don't get too frustrated with this new phase, it too will pass.

I buy Quest Protein bars for when I want something sweet. The chocolate ones are pretty good and so are the lemon. I also snack on watermelon squares, cheese squares, and saltines with laughing cow cheese wedges. I dont snack much though because I use fluids instead .... Protein drinks (nectar has great fruity ones!) or SF Water drops/flavors like raspberry lemonade help too.

I thought the hunger gherelin hormone was gone

I am relating!! Thank you for this post!!!

Thank you @ for your suggestions.

@@nrg33 I feel you, my surgery was April 28th, I am down 61lbs, and have 70 to go. I'm not looking at the big picture, I think in short goal. 4lbs to my next goal. I think I'm on another stall UGH!

I as well find myself snacking.

@@Pinkgirl1234, I thought that too. But I can tell you from reading this site for over a year, many people , including myself, have hunger pain that comes back-full force. It helps we have the restriction but it's so easy to snack every few hours. The key is to pick something healthy.....and that can be a battle.

Hello, how about change your snack to healthy snacks. Instead of sodas drink water. You can do this you've done it already. Dont forget exercise no minimum 4 times a wk. your goal is right around the corner. If the others can do it you can do it too ????.

I can also relate. I do try to pick on proteins and nothing else but once in a while I have a sweet! I try to do the right things but sometimes those snacks and cravings are too strong! Weak moments happen. I want to be good all the time but it is hard! Struggle daily!

I keep beef sticks, babybel cheese, fresh fruit and Fage yogurt on hand for snacks.

Omgosh I just posted this I am struggling with this same issue and I have lost 50lbs

Wow! I was about to post the same thing! Surgery June 1st and down 58 and craving junk! Thanks for sharing. Just knowing I'm not alone gives me motivation to make the right choices!

Tell me that my weakness for chocolate will subside when the hormone is removed.

Between chocolate protein shakes, chocolate protein pudding and chocolate calcium chews, I haven't had very many days when I haven't had chocolate since my surgery,
