My goal no eating past 6 pm

hard time finding good Protein bars; I am deathly allergic to ALMONDS. They all seem to want to have almonds in them or have Almond butter.

Local Bakery makes FRESH ENERGY BARS but most contain almonds or almond butter too . they are a huge hit here in Reno. Will have to see if I can find the weblink for you all to try them. They are awesome!!

ok...lol..it's simple..... www.freshenergybakery.com

you can order on line. Just be sure to read the ingredients.

Okay, I'm going to take a shot at this too. While my focus right now is not weight loss due to my pregnancy, I don't want to gain too much weight either. In the past month I've put on about 9lbs (had my band loosened 2 months ago). And while I realize that it's for a very good cause, it really is too early in my pregnancy to be putting on that much weight.

Here's how I've done today.

B: yogurt (7am)

S: 1/2 c oatmeal with brown sugar (10am and I'm starving!)

1 banana

L: salad (baby spinach, hard-boiled egg, cheese, bleu cheese dressing, sunflower seeds)

1 C clam chowder

S: 3 Cookies (2 oatmeal cranberry and 1 peanut butter)

D: 4oz t-bone steak

string Beans

mashed potatoes

*before bed I ate some low fat vanilla ice cream.

      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.
