My OUT OF CONTROL moment



Recommended Posts

My out of control moment has been this 3 day benge I have been having right before my 2 week pre-op, from what I have read on here it is a so called "food depravation" moment.

I hope what THINONEDAY SAID about the sleeve will be true for me also. Boy do I ever need to have some control. This is what the sleeve is all about. I am having surgery on Dec. 2 so I don't have very long until I will find out for myself. I am glad I have you all for support, we all have so much in common and we are striving for the same thing. I want to lose weight and be able to keep it off. I posted some more photos in a new album, "Night before Pre-op diet pictures" and I will post some more right before I have surgery.

Please be careful with your "last suppers"....I made that mistake....after I got my surgery date, I ate like a pig! I had rotel cheese dip, two nights in a row for supper, I had fried chicken & mashed potatoes, I has mexican food, I had chinese food, I had fried sea food, coke floats, etc. etc. etc.

And you know what? When I went for my pre-op, I did great until the took my blood pressure, all that fattening food, did me in !!!! My blood pressure was OUT OF SIGHT, I sabotaged myself, unknowingly. They canceled my surgery date...and I'm still trying to get my BP down. Praying for a December date.... please be careful of what you eat!:blush:

I thought I had better let you know that I finally got back in better control. I went on my pre-op diet Wednesday and I am doing ok. I only was able to get down 3 milkshakes and 1 Protein Bar day 1 and day 2. I could not go to sleep last night and so at 3:00 am I was drinking a milkshake then I was able to fall asleep. Today I have had 3 milkshakes and a Protein bar since waking up. I am going to try to get one more in before I go to sleep. I am suppose to have 4-5 each day. I really like the milkshakes and they seem to be really filling right now, I hope that it stays that way for all of my 2 week pre-op diet. I hope all goes well with your surgery.

Rose, that is too too funny. LOL

I used to buy candy and hide it around the house so I could secretly eat it when no one was watching. My husband has found a bag or two over the years and I would just tell him I was hiding it from our hyper grandson when he comes to visit. LOL I have now confessed to hubby all my sins about food. He said he already knew about it.

Funny thing now, anything sweet does not appeal to me. It actually makes me feel sick.

      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.
