This cant continue..

Nykee, lots of liquids calories in there girl...have you thought of replacing some of those sugary liquid calories with protein drinks, atleast you would be getting in your protein while drinking the liquids. I understand you are too tighr and this is why all the liquids but by adding protein will only help in your weight loss and you will not be loosing lean muscle mass, your intake does not look like 60 grams of protein by any means..losing weight without eating adequate protein only makes us lose lean muscle mass which in the end makes us flabby. Just a thought

Hi Nykee,

First of all, congratulations on your weight loss!

It's a great idea to write down your diet. I've never been good at keeping track of my intake (too lazy). I don't think you need to worry about drinking too much milk. The only problem is that it won't make you full, but it's definitely a healthier choice than juice.

La Madam is right - you really need to get in more Protein. Try putting a scoop of Protein powder in your milk. You've mentioned in previous threads that you have some health issues. If you're tired a lot, not enough protein is probably the reason... I know you're trying to get more solids into your diet, but Liquid Protein is better than not enough protein.

thanks for the support.

I will go research Protein needs .. does it need to come from a certain source?

I had 150 grams of protein on Friday

I had maybe 60 on saturday.

I drink alot of milk (its 10 grams per 8 ounces) and yes I drink at least 6 of those a day.

I have been told to have less protein by a nutritionalist.

You're right - I doubt you need Protein powder if you're drinking that much milk. I didn't realize you were drinking 6 glasses of milk a day...

I really don't know if protein needs to come from a variety of sources... If I were you, I'd show your nutritionist a print out of your diet thread after a few days and get his/her opinion. Theoretically, I'm sure you can live on liquid protein and vitamin/mineral supplements forever, it just doesn't sound like very much fun. But as long as the nutritionist is happy, and you're not feeling deprived, and the weight is coming off...

Of course, I'd still like to see you get an unfill (ducking to avoid shoes)...

anwyn,

hey thanks...

I aint showing this food intake to anyone.. lol

Of course I will if and when I need to, like if I get sick or ya know.. I am asked for it.. right now its too embarrassing.

I already know whats wrong with it and what to do to make it better..

Its just actually doing it thats the problem.

Tonight.. I am gonna try not to be such a hog

I think I will use this as a small or big? diary area too,..

I go to a pizza party for my neice today at noon, (not possible to have pizza at this point)

there will be like her grandma there and stuff like that..

So its really my first time going out and eating when I cant eat..

My plan is to put a slice on my plate and pick at it.. so no one thinks like I am not eating on purpose (or pretending like I dont eat)

I hate pop and beer... I wonder if they will have milk or juice?

I cant really drink that much milk and juice at noon, well sometimes I can..

It would be cool if they had tomatoe soup..lol

Then I would look like a dork and make my banding like all obvious

its not a secret

but EVERYONE is watching to see if I have lost weight..

Plus I am gonna go through my clothes and see what shows my weightloss... cuz my regular clothes sure dont.

luckily I aint very sociable.. usually (cept with boys.. they dont count)

Well, pizza is a hard thing to deal with...I ordered pizza the other day for my kids and I picked off the cheese and that wasn't that bad. I noticed how much milk that you drink in a day, have you tried eating cottage cheese instead of maybe a glass of milk? I know some people do not like but it could be a break from the milk just to have a change and still get some protein in, or maybe even a piece of cheese. The weight that you loss is great...keep up the good work!

your funny.. JQ... welcome!~

Congrats on the WL !!!!! Keep up the good work.

Nykee,

I would encourage you to begin logging the grams of Protein, fat, and carbohydrates you are eating. A good way to do this might simply be to visit nutritiondata.com and enter the name of the foods you frequently eat so that you can learn about their nutritional value. I have found this to be very helpful to me as I have changed several of the items in my fridge. Remember: a gram of protein is 4 calories, and a gram of carbohydrate is also 4 calories, a gram of fat is 9 calories. The calories of a typical diet should be composed of 20% calories from protein, 20% from fat, and 60% from carbohydrates.

You and I like the same kinds of foods; unfortunately, they don't provide us with the quality nutrition that hotties like us need. Play with your food a little more: try sushi, have a Bocca dinner, experiment in the kitchen. The point is that there are lots of wonderful foods that taste great and are super nutritious. By the way, I noticed that neither of us are eating much. This means that every bite needs to be that much more nutritious. There's just a little room for junk in our stomaches (and I usually try to fill mine with vodka).

I love milk. It is one of my favorite foods. Sadly, unless the milk is skim it brings a lot of fat into our diets. Now fat is not a bad thing - unless it hangs over your belt or keeps you from seeing your toes, but as we all know too much of a good thing is bad. Also, watchout for the cheese. It is another personal favorite, but I have switched to mozerella and cut back because there is just too much fat in cheese. Saturated fat should be avoided and anything hydrogenated is a big no-no. A good rule of thumb regarding hydroginated fat is, if its baked and crispy look out! (think oreos, many chips, snack foods)

Everything I eat comes from a can or a box. Most everything in a bag is junk - so be cautious. If you ever find yourself sitting on a couch in the dark with a bag, run. The bag is a suave lover who first warms your heart but leaves you with stretchmarks. As for the box and can, they're not the best either, but lets face it - we wouldn't eat anything we did cook anyway, right?

Enjoy your food, get some Vitamins, balance your diet, and keep up the fantastic work.
