The Thrill Is Gone



Recommended Posts

I just had my very first piece of chocolate cake (my former addiction) since being banded 3 months ago and I'm happy to say that it's not as good as I thought it was. I'm officially over it and find more pleasure in a single piece of Jolly Rancher or Worther's hard candy. Yay me!

I think it gave me a headache, I know I was feeling better than I do before I ate it.

That has happened to me with a few foods. Great feeling to have them gone!!!

Good for you. I had a Chinese egg roll 2 weeks ago, don't need one again. Hot fudge, gone.

I was like that for awhile but then the band turned me into a damn sweets machine. The good thing is can't eat an entire pizza by myself anymore. The headache may have been from your blood sugar spike. That can be a nice natural deterrent for sweets. Keep up the good work!

The headache may have been from your blood sugar spike.

So that's why I'm possibly having this headache. We celebrated birthdays today and I ate a piece of bday cake. Now I wish I wouldn't have :(

      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.
