Maybe we should form a secret society of Reese's peanutbutter cup sneakers. For the last month those things as well as those great Dove eggs they've got out for Easter have me mezmerized. I'm sittin' home recovering from a gall bladder surgery gone wrong/dislocated hip. So all I do is obsess about what sweets there are for me to eat. I bake Cookies, cakes, brownies and if I happen to get out...I buy candy.

Somehow I managed to shake some sense into myself and for the last 3 or 4 days I've been fighting off the urges. I don't know how I did it other than the fact that I started logging my food again. I'll be so glad to go back to work again (not).

Reese's are evil and must be destroyed! I'm doing a pretty good

job of destroying every bag I buy (wipes chocolate from face)

Christmas, Valentines, Easter...damn I cant get away from all the chocolate temptations and Im losing this battle.

Being empty doesnt help either!

:help:

If you're starting a "Fell off the bandwagon" group here, please add my name to the list!

I recently had my band partially unfilled and I CAN'T STOP EATING!! I had a miserable 4-5 days when I could barely get down water!! I lost 5 lbs. from it all. As soon as I could start eating again, it's been a feeding frenzy!! I have some kind, caring friends who brought dinner over for me & my family. There was a jello/whip cream salad, ice cream with hot fudge, full fat yogurt, a creamy chicken casserole thing that was heavenly & MORE!! I am downing it all and have gained back all the 5 lbs. I had weight I lost & more. I am feeling ZERO restriction and just having a party!!

Why do we do this to ourselves?!?!?!?!?!??! Thank goodness there hasn't been any chocolate in the house because the entire bag would be GONE.

How is it that we can be in such control over ourselves & then the next day we completely LOSE IT!! It's like a Jeckel & Hyde thing. It makes me feel like a freak when I'm so out of control!

SOMEBODY PLEASE WIRE MY MOUTH SHUT & THROW ME INTO THE PSYCH WARD!! :speechles

You have to go on that new inventors show with the new elbow screw for weight loss Jack, you could make millions!!! HA!! It is just so comfortable to fall back into those old eating habits...it's easier than to actually have to think about what is going into our mouths or to think about it and then throw that thought away because the food is so satisfying for the moment. I am getting on the scale in the morning and I know some crying will be going on afterwards and I hope that will kick me into shape because I am sure to have gained weight this week. Good thing the PMS is done though so I should be less reactive to my cravings hopefully. I'm still not back on track, but hoping to be so soon enough I've still got to lose another 75 pounds and the second half will be sooo much harder than the first half!

      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.
