It's November! 11 Months and how are we doing?.....
Hey Godblessedme, 67 pounds is awesome!!! Do be an advocate for yourself with your surgeon and tell them your concerns over and over again until you get results. I think medicine is just another consumer product and I hound my doc when I need too. Does your doc know you're doing Medifast?
I'm a carboholic too and I was recently on a cookie binge this week. I stopped that one (since I ate them all) and won't be buying anymore. I have found that when I eat too many carbs, it does slow down the weight loss. The weirdest thing I've noticed is that when I eat more, mostly protein, and get in my 64oz. of fluids, I'll lose at least one pound per day. The carbs are just empty calories and will make you feel hungrier soon. Protein fills you up and satisfies you longer. Do you see a NUT on a regular basis? I don't, as my surgery was done in another state. I do, however, keep a food journal of every bite that goes into my mouth. It really keeps me accountable and I can see why I did or did not lose during the week.
You're not a downer, this is a "support group" and we're here to listen and help if we can. Don't give up. I didn't mean to be preachy, just know that I care. Kelly
