My Band Knows Its Halloween And Is Laughing At Me



Recommended Posts

From the time I woke up this morning I have been starving like I just left a concentratiion camp. My band is laughing at me telling me to go buy a bag of reeces Peanut Butter cups because it wil fill you up completely and your hunger will go away. Ah ha ha. Well it feels like it was saying that. But any way I didnt over eat today even though Im starving and I am not buying any Halloween candy either. So to my band I say you can be open as wide as you want today I will not buy any candy to let the last laugh be on you! Happy Halloweenie peeps.

I've already had a Peanut Butter cup. Is it wrong I'm praying my son gets awful candy tonight? It will make it so much easier for me to resist!!

This is the first day I find myself truly white knuckling through the day, trying to resist all the temptations. Ugh.

Well sugar is my poison. I dont know what to tell you girls that have kids except this is the true time your will power goes in to mode. It's the beginning of the Holidays from now til the first of the year. We have to stay strong even though everything is in our faces. It's hard but we can do this. Here is to the first of the year and no weight gain.

We hardly get any trick or treaters at our apt, but we bought one bag of Reeses last nite, just in case. As I was lying in bed watching tv last nite, I was thinking about nothing else but those Reeses! I thought about them everytime I got up to pee in the middle of the night. I thought about them when I woke up in the morning. I thought about them while on the treadmill at the gym. I'm thinking about them right now. The first kid that comes to my door tonite is gunna score - they're getting the whole dang bag of Reeses! I don't wanna risk having any leftover!

Pretty sure I have eaten my weight in sugar. I'm sitting here eating cauliflower now. Not that it is going to help at this point.

I have a lot of tricker treaters, plus my 3 grandkids come over. My house smells like chocolate. Grandkids, daughter & son in law stuffing their faces with chocolate. Good thing, I send all leftovers home with them. None for me! Also made hubby a pizza, next fave after chocolate and none of that either.

So Halloween turned out as a NSV for me.

PS put on a pair if 18 pants too, yay!

I indulged tonight. But I will be back on track tomorrow. Hey, I'm human and I love life. That includes a Reese's every once in a while!

My goodness.Im asking if anyone of us here are human..lol.You can give your body a little sugar once in a while.Its not an everyday indulgence.So you ate some treats.Unless you're a diabetic there is nothing wrong with that.If you're exercising like you should be.You can burn those empty calories and more off.Besides Ive read that one should designate one day out of the week to treat yourself.As an award for being diligent in adhering to your diet during the rest of the week.Youre human it's okay baby

Yep Peanut Butter cups...huge downfall and my band greets them openly. Fortunately it only lets a little bit go in but enough to do some damage!!!! Such is life that makes us human! Happy Halloween!

      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.
