Sunday Weigh In (1/21/2018)

[Susan in Tennessee]

Nope, in fact, I think I ate less. Go figure.....lets see what next week brings.

Eating LESS is "different" so try not eating less. Next week is your week, I feel it!

Lost 10 lbs in a month. Too much, too fast. (11 months post op.) I feel like I look sick.

Trying to boost calories and protein. Not easy to do with one hand in a cast and unusable (arthritis surgery.)

Never thought I’d be trying to not lose weight.

I also don't think 10 in a month is too much. It doesn't go like that too many months, not for me anyway.

I don’t think today’s number is “real”. I did wait to post until confirming it on the scale at the gym- but I think it is just one of those - I took some good number 2s last night and flushed myself out. I expect to be back up to 148-150 tomorrow.

I would say this IS your true weight, it's the "overloaded" weight that's not true!

Eating less IS different. Remember, you need to FEED the DS, protein and fats, to keep it helping you.

I meant I ate less ice cream and cafe lattes. Everything else stayed the same.

Okay, so less carbs. Maybe eat the same amount but switch the ice cream and lattes for something DS friendly.

Not a huge amount but steady. I had a couple of low protein days, which tends to happen when I am super busy. I need to figure out more grab-n-go proteins I guess.

On a fun note my one and only turned 18 yesterday. We had a great weekend.

Peace and love.

I haven't been feeling the best this past week- tired and weak. Trying to determine if it's just the "crap" everyone else has (resp and GI) or if I am struggling with something else. Stress is high right now- need to sort some things out and maybe that will help.

 

[Susan in Tennessee]

I hope you get it figured out and feel better soon, whichever is making you feel badly.

Back down to 138 today.....weird!

Well, happy birthday to your one and only.
You're getting there. It might be slow but it still happens.

Make sure you don't get the flu. TRY and avoid stress (yeah, right). And when are your labs due?

It happens. Which is why we only have a weekly weigh in thread.

I had labs in December- they were all okay with the need to up protein- went up at least 25 gm per day. And vitamin A to daily from every other. Added zinc and copper. I posted below. I also changes my multivitamin. The weakness and such has passed, not flu..I think virus of another nature. I have been trying to balance my diet a little bit more- trying some new things to shake it up. Always protein first and getting upwards of 135-150 a day. I do still use some protein supplementation in my coffee because it tastes good to me

Make sure you also included Vit K in your labs and supplement list (if not already).

 

[juliebird4828]

Yes- K and K2!
