Did well yesterday



Recommended Posts

Well it's Boxing Day here in Australia and Christmas is over. Had a great day yesterday with family and friends. I cooked for everyone, turkey, ham, roast pork loin, lots of vegetables and salads, pudding, sweets. I did really well and ate my Protein and vegetables. Wasn't even hungry when we sat down for lunch but I joined in anyway with eating, didn't even finish what was on my plate but what I ate was delicious. I had one teaspoon of pudding and a one teaspoon of a yummy dessert I make and I was satisfied. After lunch everyone was struggling with overly full tummys and the urge to sleep. I was energetic and constantly on the move cleaning up etc. I didn't have any alcohol, was never a drinker anyway but I did have a glass of non alcoholic wine and sipped on that throughout my meal. Jumped on the scales this morning and I'm two pounds down from yesterday, must have been from all the effort I put into cooking for everyone yesterday.

The first Christmas I have truly enjoyed food wise because I enjoyed a bit of everything without the over stuffed feeling.

Hope you all had a fantastic day with family and friends and to those that did have that bit extra no guilt feelings the next day!!! The effort will be better spent on getting back on track and moving forward.

      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.
