Is this it?

Apr 23, 2011

It's been 4 mos. and 9 days since my surgery.  I haven't lost any weight since February.  On the good side, I haven't gained any either.  I have trouble getting all my protein in every day.  I have trouble getting my water in every day.  I have had sip ups and drank pop.  I have had days with too many carbs.  On the good side, I have been walking 30 min every day, unless it's raining.  Here is what I dont understand:  why after this surgery is a calorie not a calorie?  Why does it have to be so much protein?  In other words, why can't I just join weight watchers and lose weight on that program?  I knew that pop and candy could be my downfall.  Why do I crave them even when I am not really hungry?  I have got to get a grip over this!  I paid so much money for this surgery and I can't let myself or my family down.  On the positive side, I have lost 35 lbs and two clothing sizes and I feel much better than I did before.  It's been a stressful week but I know I can bet back in the saddle again and start losing weight again.  I have to.  Anybody been where I am now?  Why is it so hard to lose this weight?  I did not think it would be this hard.  I did not realize I would have to eat so much protein and no carbs.  (So NOT me!)  Please help with suggestions.
