Guest guest Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 I would say at seven weeks out you are eating way too much and the wrong foods. But every doctor is different. If you had my doctor you would only be eating protein and protein only until you lost 75% of your weight. Did you take a look at how many carbs are in tomato juice, nuts, ect. Animal meat, seafood, cheeses, eggs, these foods will keep your pouch full. My doctor says to eat three meals a day. I think when I was at seven weeks out 3 ounces is what we had for the whole day. Now two years nine months out I am supposed to have 3 to 5 ounces of protein three times a day. Dark green veggies then fruit is the best choices for me for my carbs instead of the white stuff rice, potato, pasta, bread, ect. I think for me anyways this is the best way to take the weight off and keep it off since this is only a tool. Best of luck to you. Remember every doctor is different, I do believe my new way of eating is keeping me healthy.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 I agree with you . My doctor is the same as yours. Mine wants 70-protein/30 veggies. No carbs at all and no red meat for 4 months. after 75 0/0 of weight loss then add little amounts of carbs.
