Robin Miller replied to the topic POLL: How many CALORIES a day do you eat? in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
I was told to eat between 1300-1500 calories a day. I aim for 1200.I struggle to reach 1000 most days. But, I’m getting better at getting over 1000, but still working on hitting the 1200 mark.

Too. Tired. And no rest in sight. Today will be long. I have PT in Temple today followed 15 minutes later by my monthly bariatric support group. I would be inclined to skip it, but the nut is running it this time and I want to talk to her about the reactive hypoglycemia. I thought about going to Killeen, but everyone will be headed home from the…[Read more]

Wow! Flashback to day 1! My ACV packed quite a punch this morning! But I am definitely awake now!

No, not yet, which really surprises me. Jackie was having hard, almost constant contractions at around 4:00. We’ve tried texting our son, but as he’s not answering, we figure he’s asleep in the room.

It’s 1:20 AM and I’m up showered and mostly dressed. I couldn’t sleep so today will be very long! I stopped for a moment for coffee (definitely wishing that I drank caffeine) and my vitamins and supplements. Heading out to Killeen at 2. Breakfast (is it breakfast at 2 AM?) will most likely be a RTD shake in the car. Breakfast #2 will be at the…[Read more]

I gotta say, ACV at 1:10 in the morning will definitely wake you up!

Today will be interesting. We’re all on pins and needles waiting for our daughter in law to go into labor. The OB says that the baby seems to be in a hurry but mom’s body isn’t. Hoping that it happens today. If not, we’ll have to be at the hospital at around 1 AM in the morning. What kind of Dr schedules labor inductions at 1 AM? Anyway, I’ve had…[Read more]

This week will be crazy for so many reasons! Today I have physical therapy in Temple and will be calling my son before heading home. Hopefully, we’ll see some action on the baby front. If not, I’ll be heading home for grocery shopping. I want to try to get lunches made up for the week so that I don’t have to figure out what to eat when I’m already…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I’m to the point that I pretty much don’t even feel the ACV going down anymore. It’s just part of my morning. I still haven’t seen or felt any changes from it.</p>

I don’t know if this is making any difference it how I feel, but it’s getting much easier to get it down!

Today is a catch up on rest day for me. I have physical therapy twice this week plus baby Jackson will be here by Wednesday at the latest. So far, the day has been extremely hectic, but is settling down for a few hours at least. A RTD shake on the way to church this morning and a homemade one for lunch as well cuz I needed to get some meds down…[Read more]

Knowing what caused them and getting it under control was the easy part. Now I’m battling the mind games that are making me crave EVERYTHING carbs. But I have decided that this is a battle I can’t lose. It helped last night when my son told me that 21 month old Gabriel took after me. When I asked in what way. He said that Gabe has my iron will. I…[Read more]

I’m barely even getting a “glow” as the ACV goes down and I’m starting to actually enjoy the taste. But then, salt and vinegar potato chips were a favorite back in my pre-op days.

This week will be interesting. Grandson #2 will be here by Wednesday at the latest. So, a lot of driving to Killeen. Two days of physical therapy in Temple plus my bariatric support group. Luckily, the support group meets 15 minutes after I finish my 2nd PT and is less than 5 minutes away. I may combine the trips to Temple with the trips to…[Read more]

I think that today is going to be a strange day. I’ve had a breakfast of yogurt and a veggie sausage (finally getting all of them eaten) and am about to down my ACV. Then outside to help my husband transplant two ebony crate myrtle bushes to the backyard and replace them with rosebushes. We have to keep a close eye on the time as our son has asked…[Read more]

I’ve also noticed the reduction in my appetite. However, I have not noticed a reduction in my fasting blood sugar. However, that could be because my fasting is pretty low already. I also have noticed that the burning feeling is lessening.

Started the day off tired. I think that this will probably be the norm the day after PT. I don’t sleep well afterwards and am very sore today. I had a hot shake for breakfast and grilled chicken breast for lunch. I decided to be lazy for dinner and while I was at the grocery store, bought a Mexican flamed grilled chicken meal. It came with a whole…[Read more]

Robin Miller replied to the topic ACV DAY 6 in the forum Apple Cider Vinegar Challenge 7 years, 7 months ago
I usually have a cup of coffee before the AVC and my pouch seems to handle it OK. But, I have noticed that I go longer in the morning without being hungry. I was going to eat a protein bar halfway to Temple this morning. I was about to pull into the parking lot at the Bone and Joint clinic when I realized that I hadn’t had my protein bar because I…[Read more]
