What did you today?



Recommended Posts

Would love to see an ongoing group food diary here, including things that were hard to get down, things that were easy, things that were 'refeunded" as it were. . .I'll go first, and I'm starting on a REALLY bad day!

coffee with milk, one sugar

double esspresso, one sugar

3/4 cup scrambled eggs

1 piece of bacon

1 slice of sausage (of a link)

COKE! yes I know

personal pan pizza from pizza Hut, eaten in two parts

2 Halloween size butterfingers

SO FAR, SOOOOOOOO BAD!

This is why I need to do this, and I think if I know others will be watching, maybe I can get it together. Also getting a well-needed fill next week.

Come on people. . .tell me WHAT ARE YOU EATING??

Holy smokes! Everything I am reading says "absolutely no caffeine" and "absolutely no carbonation!" How are you keeping all this down? This scares me that I will fall into the "cheat mode."

The caffeine is a no no simple due to the bad things caffeine does to us not because it can do our band harm.

Carbonation is the same thing. It is not good for our bodies. It steals the oxygen from our blood cells but on top of that it fills up space in our band. If you can't burp (YEAH RIGHT!) then it can make you uncomfortable.

I've never heard the no caffeine rule from my surgeon's office -- they are pro-caffeine as it were, suggesting a non-fat latte makes a nice breakfast if you are tight in the morning. You get both your milk for the day and it has a good amount of Protein in it. :D

Here's my plan today (half accomplished)

Breakfast:

coffee with a splash of milk / no sweetener

Lunch:

4 oz fish with a Tbs of tartar sauce

1/2 c chopped salad mixed in with the tartar sauce to make it go further

Afternoon snack:

an apple

Dinner:

3-4 oz of pot roast

1 C cooked carrots

small potato (I know, I know, I shouldn't be having this)

If I'm hungry later:

piece of fruit

Viactiv for calcium; multi-vitamin; 64+ oz of non-caloric fluids not counting the coffee

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
