Topic: RE: STUCK..Need PROTIEN ideas!!
I too can eat more. I'l' be one year post-op on the 21st. How many calories should we be intaking in a day? I eat eggs, chicken, turkey, pork chops, and some steaks. I also eat yogurt, nuts, and slim fast low carb snack bars or akins snack bars. I have a slim fast low carb shake for breakfast every morning. I drink @ least 16 ounces of skim milk every day. The thing I'm really bad with is my water intake, I'm lucky if I have 8 ozs. a day.
I'm excerising @ least 4-5 days a week. 
Actually, I'm training for a 1/2 marathon (I'm walking not running).
I'm stuck now @ 128 lbs. Actually, I flucuate between 126 and 129.5. 
I too could use some ideas and/or suggestions! 
My goal is 124 (that'll be 1/2 my starting weight).
I also would like to know if my saggy skin will tighten up a little. I think I do have a hernia.
Happy 2005 to everyone! Best of luck 
to everyone on your continued WLS journey!

I seem to be able to eat a lot more now too at the one year mark which is today for me. Does anyone know what we're supposed to be able to hold at this point?
I think I can hold too much! I am not sure though?!?!

Today marks the one year mark for me --
I started out at 247 lbs. and today weighing in at 155 lbs. So I am 92 lbs lighter and went from a size 18 to a 8. I am feeling good today!!! Whew don't you know one year ago at this time I was in anxiety heaven playing the waiting game to get into do my surgery.
I am very excited about my progress except for the fact that I have s-l-o-w-e-d down a LOT! I haven't really lost anything else in a month. I am staying stable. I hope my body is not done with losing. I think I am eating too many carbs. So starting yesterday I cut back to the basis of protein, protein, protein, and water
If anyone on this board had Dr Duncan and had surgery on 1/5/04 contact me I'd love to see your results so far
Good luck everyone on your journey!!!

I brought back out the food scale and measuring cups. I notice I can eat a lot more in a sitting now.... TIME TO STOP FEELING.
Back to measuring to be safe is my plan.
I wish you all the best of luck and health in 2005.

Actually I find that when I am stuck increase protein and water. Instead of eating 5 times I would try to add in 2 more snacks.
Do you eat nuts and jerky? They are a great snack I rely on.
Ya I seem to be able to eat more now. As of the new year I have brought out the food scale and measuring cups again. Gotta get back on a measured track instead of just feelin it.
Best of luck in 2005

HI Gang,
First of ALL,HAPPY 2005...GOODBYEEEEE 2004 phewwww! Long hard year for me. You all look sooooooooooo FABULOUS, congrats!!!!
I've been stuck for 4 MONTHS now,I go up & down the same 5-6 # since fall. I need some protein ideas...AS well as anything that has helped you loose that last 20#.
I eat cottage cheese, eggs, meat...What else fills you up? I also use atkins protein bars as a snack. I find now that I can hold ALOT more than I use to which SCARES MEEEEE badly. HOW do you fill up your pouch?? I also need to stop eating chocolate around my period, mentally it helps but it is NOT helping my weight loss!!!
Thanks for any & all advice!!!

Hi Barbie, and lemme first say how proud I am of you! You are doing wonderful!! You are staying positive and that is so important.
As for my plan to get back on track (the past couple of months I veered so off-course I was going the other way, lol), I threw out ALL the junk I was starting to buy again.Cookies, ice cream etc...and I went back on protein shake in the A.m...I seem to have become a coffee addict since this summer, so that is my resoultions..get off the coffee and start to exercise more...
Happy New Year to you as well, and I will be praying this is your most blessed EVER!
