mstiffanyd 7 Posted August 15, 2013 I am on day 7. I was so craving a hamburger yesterday that I sat in the parking lot of McDonald's for 20 minutes. Then I drove away drinking a Protein shake. If I never see a shake after post op stage I couldn't be happier. Lol! There is a burger king around the corner from me! And a popeye's. and a McDonald's. so much food. My pre-op allows for 2 cups of veggies per day. I am 100% certain i probably had 6-8 cups tonite for dinner:-( but i stayed stong and only ate steamed veggies. My pot at the end of the rainbow is sept 6- puree day! i've been dreaming of pureed meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Literally, dreaming! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My band date is Aug 20 and I can't wait! My pre-op diet is 3 shakes a day 3oz of Protein 2 cups salad greens and 1/2 cup veg twice a day. I'm trying but it's so hard.

tamara3569 25 Posted August 15, 2013 I had a huge headache after a few days but then it died down..funny thing is I did good on my pre op diet until the day before my surgery when I decided to eat just a spoonful of the sloopy joes that my mother had fixed....bad move....THAT gave me an even bigger headache. I started my journey weighing 317. I was just banded today and was down to z85! Im feeling pretty good 1 dlamp112 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
