Friday I learned...



Recommended Posts

I am NOT ready for an all-you-can-eat type of restaurant. My head hunger was HARD to control at Sweet Tomatoes Friday night. I had a dinner date with my sweet 6 year and it was her choice for dinner. I didn't completely kill myself, but I did eat more then I should have. I blame their damn delicious blueberry muffins in addition to myself! Although, I did come out with a positive...I've been scared to try salad as I've read so many times about people who have issues with it. I did great with it! Yay!

Down 33 lbs since June 20 - I'll take it!

learned a trick for all you can eat. I walk up and down to figure out what i really want. Pick three things and take a small amount and don;t go back.

dont be scared

eating and eating out is a way of life

get a small salad plate..put some items on it you like

eat and go slow, take small bites, chew alot and enjoy..enjoy being out with whomever....live to enjoy not live to eat....

dont stress...you are not on a diet..let the band work.

sounds like you did just fine to me :)

      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.
