Started Mushies and stopped losing weight! help!



Recommended Posts

Are you keeping a record of what you are eating (writing it down) and recording the calories to know how much you are really eating. I have been keeping under 1000 calories and have lost 10 lbs since the band was installed. It has not been the easiest but I really want this to work. commitment

Sorry if that sound rough, its not meant to be....

No, that's not rough, that's the complete truth! I've been using sparkpeople.com to track my food everyday and I've been getting in an average of about 950 cals per day. Some days I can only get in about 700 and other days it'll be about 1000, it just depends on the day and how I'm feeling.

I use sparkpeople too, its the best calorie counter and you can set your own limits for carbs and Proteins too. also a good way to keep track of what your drinking and exercise.. i like to look over the week and see what days were better, and what food choices work the best.

I just started mushies three days ago, and haven't lost any weight. My dr. was not really clear on the calories I should intake each day during this phase. I've been eating three small meals with approx. 200 calories each. Does this sound right? Please give me any info you have:redface:

THANK YOU!

I have been staying under 1000 calories since the two weeks of liquids at pre-op. I just figured that I wuold loose weight at that limit but I have really been counting carbs and with that I only have to count to about 20-25. Realize-my-success web-site has been doing the calories and the carbs. If you have a realize band, your Dr. numbers, and your bands numbers you can log into Realizemysuccess.com and your Dr as well as his staff can check your progress securely.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
