Ok I have 7 more days of this and I am really getting fustrated. The good thing about it that I have lost 15lbs. This weekend was very tough. I had to go out of town and everyone was eating the foods I love and I am sitting with them drinking a slim fast, eating some jello and drinking crystal light. What a meal? I don't know if I can make it to 8/15. I need some help I want some mash potatoes and gravy.:(

I completely understand. i thought i was going to lose my mind. i did cheat one day as our whole neighborhood was having this huge cookout pre-easter and i was not going to sit there and watch everyone else eat. so yes i ate and ate. lol! and i was fine after that. got right back on board the next day and made it the rest of the week until my surgery day. don't feel bad if you cheat once, i am sure i was not the only one who cheated during the "fast". :P

Don't worry, I am 8 days pre-op today. I was banded on August 2nd and my 1st visit isn't until the 17th. I called the office yesterday and spoke to the nurse pract, i told her i was getting hungry. YOU CANT advance to the next stage till next week. I'm like o.k.,but i had a 1/4 small curd cottage cheese for lunch it hurt a little after, but i defintly felt more fufilled. Are you getting enough protein?

<BR><BR><BR>Tabby I understand, my co-workers husband grilled some spinach. She warmed up that food and I thought I was going to lose it. Now I begged for a taste of that spinach. I put it in my mouth and just sucked the juice and the seasoning off, that was the best taste ever. That was like the only thing I needed was something different. I was calm for the rest of the day.<IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt=:rolleyes: src="http://cdn.lapbandtalk.com/public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif">
