What is your food weakness, (demise)?



Recommended Posts

Symphony Milk chocolate Bars...Wal Mart puts them on sale 4 1/2 pounder sizes for $5.00...Bad News! Anything Ben And Jerry's and those are eaten in sets of 2! Kraft macaroni and cheese and Stouffers French bread pizza. There is soooooooo much more but that's enough for now. Ya think I have an ISSUE with food or what ?

I try not to punish myself about eating/drinking anything, if in moderation.

Eventually you realize that in Weight Loss Surgery there is no black or white, good or bad - it's all individual. If we want to eat some things, we might have to cut back on others. It's not about 'danger' foods to me.

Since I've been banded I realized something.

And this is to answer Telly's original question about weight loss as you get closer to goal.

My favourite food groups are now: Seafood, Cheese, Fruit and Wine. :hungry: (Maybe not exactly in that order. :) )

Deep down I honestly eat like a chic Parisian woman :) . Who knew? (Only now, I don't eat the croissants, all that doughy bread is just no longer on my menu, at this level of restriction.)

And now that I've lost weight, I can dress more like a fashionable French woman, too. Works for me!

(Roughly translated: I used to live to eat, now I just eat to live.)

      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.
