I was actually wondering if there are still any guys on LBT. Most of the replies to threads that I read are all from females. Even B52 seems to be missing.

OK, Shap, here's a try. Part of Father's Day celebration used to be IHOP with the kids and pool later. I don't want to return to the scene of so many overeating crimes, though. This year, my wife and I plan to get coffee and find a quiet place to drink it and read the paper and spend some time together. So many holidays are centered around food and this is one way to Celebrate differently. How about you other guys?

I think that's a great topic Daddyof4. So many occasions and traditions are food centric. It's just are culture. It made us fat without us realizing it. Good for you for breaking the cycle and doing something out of the comfort zone to better yourself on this journey. I did the complete opposite, the fam took me out to bfast then to the movies with popcorn and then out for diner. Although me and the wife shared which was awesome. I would love to hear from more men that are trying to break the food centric traditions if you are write a post. BTW happy fathers day everybody

I spent the day doing yard chores and cleaning up my Jeep.

We're still in recovery mode from the last snow storm a couple months ago, lots of tree damage.

Also, the garden needed attention.

Good thing I'm retired, I wouldn't have time to slave away at the honey-do list.

I went over to a family members house for Father's Day. Amazingly I had a hamburger patty and a vodka/diet tonic for lunch.< /p>

      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.
