OK, since I only post here when I've eaten good things, I'll be totally honest about today. Freaking disaster, lol. Not a lot in quantity, less than usual but horrible choices.

Breakfast - 2 pieces of raisin toast with butter

Grazed during the day on a pack of Maltezers. Fundraising chocs from the kids school.

dinner - half a bag of hot chips at the footy.

Not one single fruit or vegetable!

Breakfast - raisin toast - with butter again

lunch - hehe, 3 hot chips and a dim sim (at basketball) and then later on some dried mango and almonds

Dinner: a slice of corned silverside, cheese sauce, broccoli and carrots and mashed potato and a nice glass of sav blanc. Doug's parents came for dinner. I passed on the ice cream for dessert.

I also replaced a few cups of coffee with peppermint tea today.

Oh, boy, it hasnt been a great week for me, lol. This isnt typical though.

Breakfast - we had a big cooked breakie because the boys had two friends over to stay. I didnt overeat, but had 1 rasher of bacon (lean only), one dry fried egg and half a croissant with apricot jam.

lunch - some almonds (maybe 1/2 cup) and some dried mango - six or seven pieces and a bit later a cup of pumpkin Soup

Afternoon: - went to the movies to see DaVinci code. I ate popcorn out of Ewan's tub. A few handfuls, plus a diet coke. No dinner, but I just ate the other half of the croissant I had for breakfast - sans jam this time.

Not to self: Croissants OUCH.

Its weird because a few days like the last 3 prior to my band and I would have eaten large quantities of everything. Now I still feel like I pigged out but when I add it up, I really havent. Probably wont lose much this week (weigh in on Monday mornings) though.

OK, well I'm back from my cruise and I have to say that I was TERRIBLE with the food! I had appetizers, main courses and desserts!!! The only time I showed restraint was at the chocolate buffet (though my BF had a freakin huge plate of chocolate and ate it ALL!). I wouldn't doubt it if I gained 10 pounds. I did bike at every port that we went to, so hopefully that was a little saving grace. Back on the bandwagon!!!

Here are some cruise pics from that eating frenzy I had... http://www.flickr.com/photos/puddinpie.

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

        We have to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. For some it may be harder to adjust, people may have other factors at play that feed into the unhealthy relationship with food e.g. eating disorders, trauma. I'd hope those who you are referring to address this outside of this forum, with a professional.


        This is a place to feel safe to vent, seek advice, hopefully without judgement.


        Compassion goes a long way :)

        Seems it would be more compassionate not to perform a WLS on someone until they are mentally ready for it. Unless of course they are on death's door...

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
