Happy Easter, how did you do with food and candy???



Recommended Posts

I had 2 slices of ham (cut off the honey baked crust and that practically killed me). I had a spoonfull of greenbeans and one deviled egg. I brought my candy into work today so I an watch everyone else eat it and let it stick to their butts! I am quite proud of myself.

I had to do TWO Passover dinners and one Easter, all in one week! I only have 1cc in a 4cc 10cm band and have very little restriction. So I'd say I didn't do very well. I didn't gain any weight, but also have not lost any weight in about five weeks. I think I need more fill, and fast!

I did just fine. I had 1 small slice of ham, about 1/4 cup of the most yummy potatoes ever, and a nice green salad with fresh oranges. Desert was a small peice of devine lemon mirange pie. I had one chocolate egg, about the size of a jelly bean. I was hoping it was one of the malted milk kind, but no luck.

But then again, the band isn't a diet, it is a lifestyle.

I did okay. I dont have much of a sweet tooth so I actually didnt have any candy or desert all day. Had a Protein Drink for Breakfast. Our Easter meal was a deep South Texas version... so I had 2 slices of BBQ brisket, some pinto Beans with a spoonful of Mexican rice, and some guacamole with 3 tortilla chips. Sunday evening my DH took me to South Padre Island for dinner and I had 3 HUGE oysters on the half shell with 3 crackers. (and 2 margaritas)!! I did pretty good when I think about all the things I DIDNT put on my plate, lol!!

I did ok with the food, but I over indulged on Easter eggs. I really didnt eat anything else but chocolate ALL DAY. Back on track today though and it will be ok, there will be times like this...like vines said, not a diet, a lifestyle change.

I just started Nutrisystem on Friday and I did perfectly all weekend. If I had had my band, I would have endulged a bit. But without my band, I can not even eat 1 bite - I would go into "binge" mode.

So, I'm pretty pleased with myself.

      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.
