My first week back to eating properly gave me a whopping one pound loss.  It's a start.  Better than a gain.  Yesterday I made Unjury Apple Muffins.  The taste isn't bad but they fall apart and have to eat with a spoon.  Also, made SF Brownies, a Bariatric Eating recipe.  AWFUL!!  I thought I would go ahead an eat them rather than waste the ingredients, but they went in the trash today.  A stick of butter and a cup of Stevia......hated to waste but the taste was bitter.

 

Breakfast - Click shake

Mid-Morning - Crumbly Apple Muffin

Lunch - Meatballs in Au Jus; green beans; Greek yogurt

Snack - Beef sticks

Dinner - Tilapia; Quinoa; salad (3rd time to try Quinoa, just don't like)

Snack - Ricotta pudding

Topic: RE: New person here, lots of issues.

I'm still hanging in here. I had my psych consult today. Took a T/F test with a zillion questions as well. I think I did well. I am quitting Starbucks. Even though I drink the skinny drinks, it's still too much calories. I understand why. I also gave up dirt Coke. I know why. I know what can happen if I don't follow the instructions to the letter. This is life changing surgery for me. I dont want to die from diabetes. This is so worth it to me. I have another psych follow up visit to get test results. End of this month I have cardiac consult. I'm also maintaining my weight.

Welcome to our LW Board!!!  It took me 9 months to get to my personal goal of 125.  I was happy there so I increased my Protein drinks hoping not to gain any back.  I continued losing for another 6 months dropping down to 108.  My family kept telling me I was way to thin and I got scared.  Against all of the advice I got from our "oldies" not to start maintenance early I didn't listen.  Bounce Back is for real!!!!!  The scales started moving in the wrong direction as soon as I added some calories in.  I creeped up to the 118-120 range where I have settled for the last 6 years.

God is walking with me every step of the way. Because of HIM this is possible!!
