Guest guest Posted April 14, 2003 Report Share Posted April 14, 2003 Best wishes to all who are trying to get back on track. I ate carbs 1 1/2 days out but still feel very good about myself. Mt carb intake is down and I feel good. Isn't that what counts? Anyone out there who feels bad about not completing the course, cut it out!!!!.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Hi all, I was going to do this all protein shakes and water with everyone for three days.. but after I became sick and had to go on some powerful antibiotics, decided it wasnt a good idea.. The pharmacist told me I needed to eat some food with the antibiotic.. I am glad to hear that everyone is doing so well though.. I have really cut back on the carbs though.. like having steamed veggies with broiled chicken, etc. Hugs, from GA open RNY 12/12/00 Revision 04/18/01 Revision 02/07/02 St wt.... 392 Cw.......187 Wt loss..-205 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Fay, I for one feel bad...I happened to speak with my surgeon yesterday, opened my mouth and mentioned the carbs fast...protein only. He said stop it now, don't do it you need the carbs-- just eat smaller meals and exercise more. Now, I'm not an exercise hound so that is out. As for the smaller meals I can do that and I've thought of one portion of carbs a day after I do the protein first routine. Neci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Neci, I'm sure he's speaking of good carbs, fruits & veggies. As for eating smaller meals, hopefully, that will be another benefit of the " fast " ...shrinking our stomachs a little. My volume capacity was getting a bit greater than I wanted or needed. I wish I liked veggies a little more, I'm bad about that, but fruits, especially melon, has gotten me away from eatings sweets more often than I can say. I know many don't believe in eating a lot of fruit, but I always have cut-up melon in the fridge all summer for something to grab when the nightime munchies happen. Maybe next time, and I'm sure there will be a next time, we can do a " white carbs " purge....not so drastic.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 I agree with you guys. 1-3 days of low or no carbs probably won't hurt most of us. I think most of us have good sense to know our own bodies. They have been with us all of our lives! If we start feeling poorly we can change something...eat or drink something. I started to do the all liquid fast but I decided to allow myself 6 PepChips last night. I made 7 but DH ate one. Today will be different. It is a new day! I feel good and Fay you are so right on! OMG I need to get out before the rain comes! Just have to give my 2 cents! BYE!

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Neci, if you would check your protien drink you will discover that it has carbs in it. So technically it is no added carbs.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Oh, I'm sure he meant the good carbs we need. I always have fruit and could survive on veggies. Sometimes I have to force myself to eat meat. I love fish. The veggies have always been my substitute for sweets. Only I have been cautioned on too many fruits also. Gosh -- I thought the food management would be easier after the surgery, but almost three years later I still find it a vicious cycle. I think " moderation of any food group " is key. Today, I did veggies and chicken and all the water I can hold. One whey shake and will have a small one before I turn in. My surgeon, I'm sure is just concerned about my health, but I don't see how three days could harm me any. Neci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
