Too hot to eat???



Recommended Posts

I went on vacation to Florida last month and found that, not only was my band extra tight, but I never got hungry.I thought it may have been because we were doing all the parks, and between all the walking and the heat, my band responded that way. Well now it seems Mass is actually starting to warm up, and I've been having the same problems (not hungry at all)... last summer I hadn't reached my sweet spot yet, so I didn't have a problem then. I wonder if my body will adjust to it being warm, or if I'll have to go for an unfill :thumbdown: Any thoughts?

Did you fly to Florida? If so, when we flew to Hawaii last summer my band tightened up so much I could barely eat. The good thing is I lost 20 pounds in a month!

Without the band I alway ate less in the warm weather. I think it's natural. I tell my friends and family that I am a cool weather cook. Here in Texas now, that means that meals are lighter, nothing gets baked, and some days we just do sandwiches or salads. When it's so oppressive here ...over 100 degrees we just moan and sip ice tea during the day, then run out for ice cream at night. My summer diets were usually successful but the weight came back over the winter. Coming from Mass it probably felt hotter than it did to natives so your body thought it was summer.

      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.
