Okay I believe in always being honest. I talked about how I am up all night (even with sleep meds). Well . . . about 2:30 am I gave in and ate a bag of 100 calorie popcorn. I hate to be a bad example but I am adding another day of liquids for slipping up. The first 3 days of starting over are the hardest for me. Don't let my slip up mess you up . . . I had to confess as we are over and done with secretive eating! We can all do this! Today should be easier!

I admit...I have never been a secret eater. But Cheri, you shouldn't be so hard on yourself...it was only 100 calories, yes...maybe weird that you ate it at 2:30 in the morning. But if you only did liquids yesterday...then a small bag of popcorn isn't bad!! I ate a cookie for breakfast...lol My band was extremely tight this morning....had a hard time drinking a Protein Shake. Which I don't even know why I drank if first thing in the morning...as, I am tight every morning and always drink coffee first!! So, I am hoping this means my fill is going to help me with the last 20lbs!! Take it easy Cheri....we CAN do this!! have a good weekend....and Happy Friday ;)

Made it another day. I see my doctor tomorrow. I have to say that cooking for the family has been sooo hard!!! I had to go to the grocery store today after work and I felt a little overwhelmed looking at all those foods...I did eat a sugar free pudding today. Is that food? I kida feel like it is, but I remember eating them after surgery. Getting my workouts in and keeping my calories under 600. Wow!!! keep on keepin on!

Day 1 for me. I started my day with a 25grams Protein Shake, then headed off to the gym for an hour and a half of high impact Zumba. For lunch I did eat a light shredded chicken with chipotle souce (240 calories) and dinner another Protein shake. Hope tomorrow will be a better day. I need to work on

my Water intake only 24 oz of water today.

Met with my Dr. Today. He tolde to get lean and green instead of doing all liquids. I have 1 cc in a 4cc band and have a hard time with dry chicken. He wants me to get an upper GI to make sure band is in the right spot. Im feeling a little frusterated. I ate a salad tonight for dinner. It was soo good, but I almost feel like I cheated.- lol I kind of liked the control having only liquids gave me. Maybe, I'll do liquids a couple days then lean and green. Back and forth? Argh!!! So much easier when there are NO options!!! Thanks for the venting... All positive now...

It has been a horrible weekend for me. Hard to resist anything. I have been so good with my journaling all week and sticking to it and then the weekend hits and WHAM....Kids school carnival, baby shower and birthday party. Bad foods....I did not eat alot of bad foods, but I did have enough to make me feels so guilty and angry at myself. Tomorrow is a new day so I will start fresh. But on the upside this mornings weigh in showed a 2 pound loss since Tuesday so I gotta get back on track to make that number stay down and maybe even get lower by next Saturday. Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

      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.
