If she had surgery then why is she putting junk/ high carbs in the cart? Just say no or go alone. Which I do all the time, go alone! Even if it's a extra drive least there won't be junk in the house. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am looking to start my pre-op liquid diet in a few weeks from now. How did you all keep from putting food in your mouth? Iv been trying to get up and do a day of it but I always fail.

What did you do?
melbell2222 replied to melbell2222's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Iv been going outside every time I want to eat this afternoon. my animals think I'm crazy pretty sure! I give them treats instead of feeding myself ( live on a farm) I'm also at the point where I can't gain a pound. Now that I think of it idk if my bariatric team allows veggies, no one at the support group has mentioned it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

What’s the Most Awkward Part of WLS?
