Reset Roll Call!

Wow, I find I'm never physically hungry either--just hungry in my mind.  I prowl around my kitchen in the afternoon looking for something to munch on.  Always a carb! Amy

Well, I WISH I wasn't hungry...but my tummy is squishing together and it's talking to me in not so many nice words!!! LOL   I will stick to this though...I have to remember that I've stretched my pouch out ALOT so of course my tummy is going to be mad it's not getting anything solid...

I'm jumping on the bandwagon! I went and bought some more nectar--crystal sky and twisted cherry. I've had lots of water, crystal light and 1 shake (lemon) so far today. I haven't really been hungry.  I'm trying to keep myself busy so I don't think about those afternoon munchies I always get. Amy

Hi Amy !!!

I figured I'd post here even though I'm not starting until tomorrow.  I tried to start this morning, but some cinnamon goldfish got the best of me.  Then I fell back into my old pre-op mindset that I'd already blown it for the day, so I binged.  The last 2 weeks I have been so totally out of control.  Eating candy, stuffing my face with carbs every hour or so, eating ice cream, and more.  The scale is up to 137 right now.  My lowest was 123, but my doctor agreed I should put about 10 back on.  I'd like to stay at 131.  The scariest thing for me right now is my mindset.  The scale hasn't moved too much in the wrong direction yet, but it's coming.  I'm acting out of control like I did pre-op.  I haven't done this in almost 2 years, so why the change now?  I know what I should be doing, but it's just like the old days where I tell myself I'll stop every morning and fail by the end of the day.   Ugh.  Sorry to be such a downer.  I'm just so frustrated with myself.  I wanted to kick my old habits to the curb, but they are rearing their ugly head again.  It just makes me want to cry because I am starting to let those old feelings of hating myself creep back in.  I don't want to feel that way!   

I decided to dive in too!  I have been bothered by how I have been regaining 4yrs out and have been looking for some support. I had an egg and slice of ham for breakfast and then I was going to start tomorrow, but I had my mind set and there is always a reason to delay. So I have Atkins shakes to get started. I am physically hungry and a mild headache all day. I want to try another shake and hop in bed so I can count this a good day!! Lauren, I am in MA too, have you had any contact with Chestnut HIll if they do something like the TIMEOUT plan? I havent been  back for over 2 yrs!! I appreciate finding you all here

Where do you get the nector protein.  I know bariatric.com has it. Do any store carry it.?   I started the one where you drink water and five proteins a day... But I want to try the liquid one.... 

I got mine at The Vitamin Shoppe...GNC does not carry it...or you can order online at several different sites....Good luck!! PS. I have tried the Fuzzy Navel and the Lemonade...both are really good...I'm surprised.
