3.4 pounds lost! Woo hoo. That's a step in the right direction. I learned a lot at my meeting with the Bariatric Educator at the clinic today too. Apparently my off the diet deep end was not really off the deep end. (This is of course under Doctor's supervision and is a plan designed for me by specialists.) I was right too cut carbs and raise protein as much as I did.
My food diary has changed too. Looking back at the diary I was given to keep at my first visit, 2 weeks ago, that diary was like kindergarten. But it's totally cool how they are taking me step by step into a plan that is more complex and more specific for me. The new diary is less about what I ate and more about what is in what I am eating. Now its more like here is what your body needs what did you eat to fulfill that. The first diary was different because it was arranged to show what I ate then I had to list what nutrients and calories were in that food.
I'm looking forward to finishing the rest of my testing because I am feeling tired lately. Might be my thyroid, that tested "borderline" with the family doctor at the beginning of the month. we will see.
I have to go snack now (I have to eat 8 times a day!)

Good for you on the weight loss :D I'm continuing to struggle myself, I find journals help tremendously. I'm down 30lbs since January, only 70 more to go ugh...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the 30 lbs that's great! I found that focusing on losing 10% of your body weight at a time takes off the overwhelming notion of having soooo much to lose...
