Weight Plateau - Mimi

[Guest guest]

Hi Mimi,

I too am stuck on the dreaded 68 I have

been there for about a month now, it’s so frustrating to have restriction

(a fair amount too) and not be moving on the scales.

Still I would rather be stuck on 68 than

105 where I was stuck before my band.

I like the food diary idea, only I KNOW

that it would scare the hell out of me.

Take Care and Good Luck

Good morning Mel.

Just read your email .

I'm no expert , far from it , but

have you considered maybe to make some sort of soup with protein and veges that

you could possibly blend with the bamix and you could have for lunch. I do not

know the restriction that you habve obviously - but I thought if it was blended

it would go down without a problem and at the same time you would have the

protein which would fill you up and then that way you would not be as hungry at

dinner time.

I have made up pumkin soup ,chicken

and vege , and fish and vege soup . I have all prepared and stoicked up

in th freezer just for me - That way I'm able to have some protein

and vege at the same time. It keeps me moderatley filled until dinner

time, but my god I really want some chocolate around 3.00p.m. - that is my biggest

down fall.

I do not know Mel, this is a very

different weight reduction jourey that we all travel, what suits me - may not

suit you - it is all so very differnt and if can vary from day to day .

It is just as I think if you

have a little protein you will not be as hungry later in the evening .

I went on the net after I wrote to

Sydband last night and looked at " plateau of weight loss " that is

certainly what I'm sitting on. Certainly I need to be more disciplined , but I

really should start writing every thing that goes into my mouth down and keep a

food diary. Do you keep a food diary? Maybe us at Sydband had

better keeping food diaries , that way we can go back and have a look at where

our weakest hours of the day are .

Better go back to work - heaps

to do

Have a good day

regards and luv

Mimi
