Decided I was sick of sitting home and needed fresh air. Wentto a BBQ about 5 minutes from my house. They had lots of good food but I sipped on my Water. I said I had a stomach virus. It wasn't as bad as I thought. Sure I wanted a steak skewer but the water had filled me up, plus I would not even dare think about it! I looked at the thin hostess and notcied she only nibble or a little of this and a little of that-that will be me someday!! I did stop and got an icy -I know we are allowed sugar free pops. This isn't sugar free but low calories and it's a banana/choc italian ice. The kind that come in little plastic cups (usually with woodedn forks). It tastes amazing! Had my Protein Shake first (4oz).

I was proud the I survived the BBQ and my hubby had a good time.

Wow Girl! I'm impressed that you got out so soon. Did you get very tired? I went to my grandson's HS graduation today and it wiped me out. I thought how strong I was because I've been walking but sitting up and visiting for two or three hours was really too much.

You did really good with not eating anything there. You will be that skinny hostess before you know it.

Thanks so much! I sat the entire time and lasted about 4 1/2 hours. I am confortablably resting on my recliner now-but feel fine. Glad you were able to get out alittle too! I did barely no walking so that probably made a difference I am still a work in progress when it comes to walking! Keep up the great work!!

Thanks! When I was looking at her she just ate a little bit of everything. SHe kept busy cooking and clearing things. She even drank beer that was 64 calories! She sat there wearing her bikini top and at the age of 45 she looked really good. I was thinking about what I would wear to a pool party next year! I'll eventually just have to say I am on a diet when they see me eating very little. Thanks again for all the support!!

      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.
