So I am almost 8 weeks post op and have been doing great! I’ve lost 36 pounds and I exercise at least 6 days a week and eat mostly protein and try to eat less than 30 carbs a day. But today has been rough. All I want is cereal. Like fruity pebbles cereal. And I’ve been hungry today like no other!!!!! And because of all this I feel big and like I’m sabotaging my hard work! I would even eat the fruity pebbles in almond milk if it would help!
I guess I am just looking for reassurance from my sleeve family that I’m just have one of those days and it too shall pass ?

I heard a rumor that GNC has a protein powder that tastes like Fruity Peebles, either one of the Ghost brand blends or another proprietary brand,it was even a sample size! I saw it when I was there last chatting with the rep at the counter.

My point is find a way to make this work and don't eat that evil @$$ cereal.

Hope this helps!

Is it emotional? Have you been stressed by something? Try and stop for a minute and think what it could be?

G'day to you in Oz from me in the USA. Don't see you on here much anymore, nice seeing you again!???

Hey frustr8!! How are you doing??

Gomum I think some of it has to do with Aunt Flo on her way. Today is a new day though and I’m starting over!
Greentealael I will look into that! Thank you!

Oh Chugging? right along. Tomorrow I start my prediet for,my September 5th RnY, we will find out if the statement " What does not kill me can only strengthen me: holds any credence. But I do want a smooth surgery that helps Ser me on my way toward a better life. It has to be an improvement from sitting obese and in pain , waiting daily for the Death Angel to claim me as his Own. That is a SAD way to have to exist and now I have hope that no longer will be my fate. So some tears?so n e sorrow but there will be ?Sunlight ahead!

You got this! If it was easy everybody would be skinny. You will have your bad days , hence my original post, but with your positive mentality you will be just fine!

I had a day like that on Saturday. There were just a lot of personal issues that were happening, and I wanted food! I did eat more carbs than normal on that day. I was with my sister and her family, and we ordered Mexican. I got chicken with rice and queso. I ate mostly chicken and just a bite or two of rice, but then I came back and ate more later and ate the rest of my chicken with more rice. I also had a couple pieces of chocolate. But, hey, I tracked every bite, and I still lost 4 pounds this week. You're not always going to be perfect, and yes, it will pass!
