I wouldn't. I never went off mine. There will be plenty of time in the future to have an occasional splurge - but I would really stay on the straight and narrow now.
Thank you for the support! I have to admit I'm feeling pretty awesome on this liquid diet. Day 7 was much easier!

Greeting,
I started this journey December 24 and I was 424 pounds
today I am 362
I am on day six of the liquid diet and I've been 100% successful with no cheating
however we all know tomorrow is Fourth of July! I've done an awesome job of sticking to the script besides a few shortcomings in the past seven months
I'm finally get particularly hard to stick on the journey as I have until July 12 to get the surgery done.
has anyone went off the script on the liquid diet for one day one meal only?
I normally do premiere protein in a blender with ice and two packs of Splenda.
Please share your experiences being on your liquid diet!
no! Don't do it. There will be lots of holidays to come. That is not the way to be successful . there will be holidays where you can have a treat AFTER you lose your weight.
plus, eating off your liquid diet now, will start up the cravings big time. It will be harder to get back on snd stay on the liquid diet again.
don't mess up now!

Of course you can eat beef, of course, but there are some things that you should know! First of all, don't think that it will not have consequences at all. This meat is heavy, don't forget about it, and your body can say it's okay to consume it with moderation. Second, I think that buying some beef jerky is a better idea to be honest. It?s also a heavy dish, but it?s not that fat, so your stomach will consume it relaxed. Here https://www.bigwigjerky.com.au you can have the best beef jerky I have ever tried in my life. Nevertheless, remember, overeating can cause you problems whatever you?d eat!
I had RNY in 2007. I will share some of my observations over the years. Most people with RNY lose about 100 pounds. Almost everyone regains 20 pounds in year 3. About half regain 50 pounds by year 5. Some regain 100 pounds by year 5. By year 10 there is even more regain.
VSG is only restriction, so the weight is harder to lose because you do not have malabsorption to help. Every calorie that you eat is absorbed. With RNY there are several years of malabsorption, so most people lose weight no mater what they eat. We tend to regain pretty rapidly after the malabsorption period ends.
No matter what surgery you have, the only way to maintain the weight loss is with diet and exercise. I rejoined Weigh****chers after two years. I was at my goal of 136 in 2016. I am now at 157 and that is with diet and exercise. I find it harder every year to lose or just to maintain.
The surgery gets the weight off, but it is the constant attention to calories eaten and burned that keeps it off. What I like about WW is no forbidden foods. I can decide to eat anything as long as I stay in my points range. I track my food and exercise. I attend virtual Weigh****cher meetings and I check out this site every day.
One thing that I tell myself everyday is that I am on a diet for the rest of my life. I never bought into the concept that it is about changing my lifestyle. I will always think about pulling into Dunkin Donuts or the Dairy Queen. If it were not for Weigh****chers, I believe I would have regained every pound that I lost. That is my form of therapy. I am glad you found a therapy that is helping you. I am glad that you are losing again. It can be done. Nobody has surgery, loses the weight, and keeps it off without working at for the rest of their life.
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
My biggest loss was down 232 pounds. I started at 528 pounds, so that put me just under 300 which was fantastic. Over covid I gained a good amount just afraid to go in the stores and having my young adults grab quick fixes to get out of the store fast.
I've been doing better, losing very slowly. Once I lose probably 50 pounds I'm considering a revision surgery as 300 plus is not my end goal. I have advanced osteoarthritis which has caused severe degeneration in both knees but surgery isn't recommended at my weight.
So rather than write a book, has anyone been in a similar situation and had good success?
Thanks for your input.?
Tracey :)
I'm bothered with the same problem right now. Supporting words like «things go well for you» don't really help. See no one replied with anything specific to you... How do you cope? I just hope I can fully rely on my surgeon. Heard that he's one of the best in this field. But to be honest this doesn't help at all, don't know how to stop freaking out.
