Yep, that's what they tell me it is!! I'm real hungry. I continue to stay on "mushies" to make sure I heal properly & feeling No restriction or any "pressure" after eating or drinking anymore. I have read in other posts before where people felt like they could eat a hamburger or did eat one so soon afterwards. At first, I was like- that's crazy!! Yep, this Bandster's hell will make you feel that crazy to do so!! LOL

 

Sat- the girls at work ordered me a sandwich. Granted- I didn't eat any of the bread or anything. I chopped up the turkey very well & ate the advocados. So, I really didn't eat a sandwich- that was all that I ate from it. It was weird to eat it from a fork. But, it was good. :tt1: I then finally felt "satisfied" for a longer time perior. (closer to 3 hrs this time) But unfortunatly, it made me feel like- ohh, what else can I eat?? So, for dinner that night I ate tortilla soup. with advocados!! yummy.

 

I am making sure that I make conscious decisions.

 

I work at a vet, I always tend to advise others to put their dogs on diets.. Or aftercare from surgery from being "fixed". This time, I AM the PATIENT!! Make sure I take my antibiotics, chewable vitamins, and walk for a better recovery.

 

Of course, now I started back to work, I haven't walked.. I have been rather exhausted when I get home.

 

I just don't want the first several pounds that I lost to be a waste!! I have lost about 11 lbs so far.. However, I can tell that I have lost inches as well though. :thumbup:

I will give you my advice. You can take it or leave it. Bandster hell is tough. Leave out all bread, pasta, rice and potatoes. It makes your blood sugars spike and that means more insulin in your system and then more cravings!

Eat PLENTY of protein. The more protein for me the less hunger I had. Eat your solid protein first and leave the carbs to the fruits and veggies that follow it up.

Keep track of what you eat. I use sparkpeople.com, others like dailyplate (?)there are several free websites out there.

Good luck. Keep up the good work!
