One more benefit of the Band



Recommended Posts

No food coma after over eating. I just got back from a business lunch and I ate too much. Pre-Band that would have meant a couple of thousand calories and a food coma. :D

Hate to tell you Debbie, I knew when I should have stopped, but didn't. That will be a battle many of us will face for the rest of our lives. Even with the overeating, I doubt I will exceed my BMR today, just have a lite dinner.< /p>

SO true! I can't speak for anyone else on this site, or anywhere else....but I will never be perfect! I can be damn good, but I spent too many years in therapy to let go of the drive and need for "perfection". A little over eating here & there; I can live with it. As long as it's not a regular practice.

So Terry - what was for lunch? I hope it was gooooood :P

      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.
