Sleevers daily menu

[ceejay]

I've had a crap couple of days, but not in the same way as Bellydancer... I've wanted to eat all the wrong things, and yesterday had a small piece of toffee and chocolate cake. I got on the scales yesterday morning and not lost an ounce! My weekly weigh in is Monday, but jumped on early, and was gutted. I think thats why I slipped - it always happened like that pre-op, and obviously hasn't changed. I still can't understand how I only have around 700-800 cals per day and don't lose. I s'pose the scales will tell tomorrow, and I can hope for a dramatic loss next week.

Today's menu...

Fresh oj
Bran flakes with s.s milk
Glass fresh oj
Ham, beef, turkey, 4 carrots, Dessertspoon cauliflower cheese, few peas (>1/2 child's carvery lunch!)
Glass fresh oj
1/2 slice malt loaf
Caramel latte

I reckon I've had just under 750cals and 45g of protein, so hopefully I'll see the losses soon...:sigh:

Better day today but still don't want to eat. Maybe the hot weather too.
Brekkie protein shake made with semi skimmed & fresh mango
Lunch muller fat free Greek yogurt, laughing cow triangle
Mid afternoon snack Shaper low fat caramel dessert 3% fat
Dinner mum blitzed some of her homemade bolognese sauce & tablespoon of well cooked spaghetti ( managed it with no pain or vomiting yey!) rather full though.
2 litres of fluids including my lattes - will have another later tonight.
Feeling bit better about what I've ate today.

I'm trying to low carb. NO idea of the calories but here's what I ate today; we're in Israel on holiday and ate out for lunch and supper unusually; usually it's only suppers we eat out as we are in our own place.

Breakfast: Low fat cheese 2 slices: Divine divine divine fresh Israeli baby plum tomatoes. Freshly ground salt. blob of diet mayo. Tea with fresh lemon from our own tree here, and a chunk of fresh ginger.

Lunch: out: shakshuka
shakshuka | smitten kitchen which I reckon is pretty low carb and good protein. I had no bread with it.

Supper at an Asian restaurant. I had a salad of leaves with an Asian dressing for starter, and chicken with broccoli for main. No carbs that I could tell unless hidden in the sauces. No overt carbs anyway

Hi This post is really helpful, due my sleeve in about 6 months and the nearer its getting, the more I have been having doubts and worrying... and eating! self sabotage!

 

[chrissy100]

How many calories are you allowed per day?

I haven't got a date yet. I have to have the balloon first.

I also don't know which op I will be having. Due to me having had hernia surgery a while ago. It depends if Mr Samier can get everything apart to be able to do the by-pass. If he can't, he will do the sleeve.

 

[Wonderlust]

Hi Ceejay,
what was your recovery like afterwards?

Hi Ceejay,
what was your recovery like afterwards?

Hiya. I'm only 6 weeks post-op and I feel amazing.
I was a bit tender for the first week or so, but having a 3yr old at home, I probably did too much too soon.
Diet wise, I stuck to the 4weeks on puree even though I felt like I could have eaten proper food, but was aware of the reason for the slop, so stuck with it. I now can eat anything, just much slower and a lot, lot less!

 

[Bellydancer57]

Not done that good today again

Lunch ate out - fresh Cromer crab with mixed leaves only managed about a 1/3 & Mum ate claws
