What is your food weakness, (demise)?



Recommended Posts

This thread seems particularly cruel tonight, as I continue my pre-op diet!!!

What I will miss the most.....french fries....Almond Joy candy bars.....

and the fresh homemade cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing my neighbor makes all the time. I want them all...right now!!! But I think I will just have a bottle of Water so I can run back & forth to the bathroom all night long!!!

We fly out Sunday, surgery on Monday!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!

I always turn to carb foods like cakes, Cookies etc. But those foods per se are not such a problem for me, I can resist them usually but its more about being in the situation where they're the easy choice. Like being disorganised, getting caught out at lunchtime with no healthy food on me like fruit, eating on the run etc.

That and easy crap for dinner like Pasta for the same reasons, no time to cook a meal, not having done the grocery shopping etc. If I control my life better my food choices are good, if I have healthy choices available I dont crave the junk or choose it.

I have a few. These are the foods I love, crave and have no control over:

1.Chocolate. Not chocolate ice cream or anything else. I'm talking pure solid milk chocolate candy.< /p>

2. mashed potatos. Creamy, salty buttery goodness.

3. cake and cupcakes. From scratch. Not a box. Home-made or a really good bakery.

4. macaroni and cheese and any kind of Pasta dish.

5. My famous huge warm from the oven chocolate chip Cookies

Right now I'm on a kick of chocolate glazed donut holes from Wal-Mart (their brand). It seems they jump into my mouth throughout the day.....those little boogers stalk me. :heh:

I'm usually a huge fan of a grilled hamburger with cheese and then add some FF's. We've gotten better and started grilling potato wedges. Cook the potato in the microwave & cut into wedges. Spray with your favorite butter spray (we like Parkay spray) and then sprinkle with some Mrs Dash. They are quite yummy and healthier than regular FF's.

Ice Cream, chocolate, (never cared for chocolate until recently, I think it's because it goes down soooo easily), and those white cheddar puffs by UTZ, OMG, they dissolve in your mouth and anything with Ranch dressing.

I love donuts, unfortunately, but fortunately, no bread products for me :omg: the thought of eating bread or a donut.

      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.
