I miss sandwiches!



Recommended Posts

But then I remember that I really like my new body, so I don't miss them anymore.

Hear hear!!!

Every once in a while I will eat 1/2 of a sandwich. I do have to lightly toast it or it get stuck. My bread of choice is nature's own whole wheat no sugar added bread. I do wish the food court at the mall had better options. I love the Greek vendor there it is one of.the healthier places and I get the grilled chicken hoagie with grilled onions and peppers. He uses olive oil and I only eat the inside of the sandwich, as I know that bread will get stuck.

I truly miss a nice roast beef sandwich on a good bread with mayo and salt and pepper.... Mmmmmmm. But, I have replaced that delicious bread with a perfectly adequate toasted flatbread, much less roast beef and light mayo and mustard..... More of a " head change" Same satisfaction level. That head hunger gets me every once in a while.

Been on a pre op diet since June, banded Aug 6, and haven't tried to eat a hamburger, french fries, or any type of sandwich since. I haven't craved lots of foods that I ate frequently prior to the band. I have to admit, it's high quality food items I eat or it doesn't go into my mouth. I WILL succeed in this band. Nothing will stop me. I want quality of life and good health for my future.

Best wishes

      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.
