Guest guest Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 I'm hoping someone has an answer to my problem or at least a way to better deal with it. I'm 13 months out and I'm starving all the time. We were never instructed and as a matter of fact discouraged to drink the protein shakes. Could that have something to do with it? I haven't met anyone this far out with this problem. I drink about 40-60 oz of water and probably 64 oz of Crystal Lite a day so I know for a fact I'm getting my fluid in. I eat protein first at all meals and try to snack only two or times a day or protein items. Piece of meat from dinner, cheese toast (low fat cheese/whole wheat toast), nuts etc. Anyone with any ideas or is there something I'm not doing??? My Dr. says stay away from crackers & white bread and I'm doing fine. I'm down -88 and am a 10 or sometimes 12. But I'm only 5'2 " and I need to lose another 25-30 pounds. Nothing is coming off. I'd appreciate any advice anyone could give me. Thanks! Tina Terry RNY Ohio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
