It's good to have goals and to try and stick with them. First time in my life I am doing so. My daily goals are 900-1000 calories, 75-100 grams of protein, 70 grams of carbs and 20 grams of fat (hard one for me).
Thank you. yes. I am doing therapy 2X week. It's been a struggle. Medication and therapy does help but not to the point where I can manage the binge habits.
that's great to heSr. It takes time but it does work. You might visit WWW.theworldsccordingtoeggface.com. She is a bariatric patient who develops recipes for every stage of bariStric eating.
I don't always meet my daily goals but I am trying!
My daily goals are:
1000 calories 100 grams protein 15 grams fat 90 grams carbs
I really only count protein because i struggle so much with it. I need at least 80 protein to stay mentally alert but also generally keep my carbs under 50.
unfortunately, for me, it's the only way to maintain
I do not count calories... i like to get at least 80g of protein and under 100g carbs... don't count fat.
I know i can do better... i need to.
I am only 16 mos and I TRY to keep my calories at around 1000 with protein at 100g, carbs at 50g or lower and fats at 40g. I can't eat anything with sugar over 10 g or I will dump. I do go over from time to time and that is usually when I am off my meal plans and out. I work hard to stay on it but it does get difficult when I am out with friends.
Come join the menu thread on the RNY board. You can see a variety of plans/daily meals and get support too.

Best advice, and most common told."it's a journey" .... I like to share my core value and shared message as learned form an alternate addiction group."IT WORKS IF YOU WORK IT" meaning of you work the plan set by bariatric team (surgeon support members and of course self) it will work. All things along this bariatric journey take time,effort(work), dedication etc. The goals whether physical mental esthetically placed or whatever are obtainable goals
It again goes full circle to, "it works of you work it"
Another factor is the ability of awareness you will relearn you body all over and become very aware you need to be aware listen to the signals and respect/honor your body.
Best advice I've received to date: my mistakes don't define me, they refine. With every choice I make, if I remember this principle, I can give myself grace when I make a choice that I'm not very happy with and I can learn from it and I do better next time I'm faced with that choice again.
