I think you're right, I don't know why I weighed myself, I think it was to teach myself a lesson that I can't slack off no matter what. I really am attributing the weight gain (most of it) to the TOM, darnit!

Thank you for your support as well :)

I had a total hysterecotomy when I was 36 and I have to tell you, my TOM was and still is the EOM. {end of the month}. I don't have to know the date but when the 25, 26th comes around, I know why I was always craving chocolate, mainly funny bones. I am not a sweet eater, and after many years of fighting the will, I just go with it. Milk and funny bones, chips and whatever else for a few days. Then it's over. However, just having the lap band, ironically at the EOM of January, I have to see how things go at the end of Feb. It's in my head and will always be there. I wouldn't worry about it, it too shall pass. Except it and then get back to eating more healthy the rest of the month. It's not worth the stress. Good luck.

      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.
