96 candy bars



Recommended Posts

....have been in my house, UNTOUCHED, for nearly a month. Odds of this happening before the surgery? ZERO.

I can relate to that! I bought a bag of halloween candy and even though its open (i gave the grandkids some) I haven't touched it. It feels so good to have that power!

Love it!!!! However, even with my sleeve, I think I would have touched, smelled, put down, walked away, come back, touched, smelled ... and then finally given in & had a little taste.

Good for you!

:lol: Good for you girlie!! LOL

I just don't trust myself enough yet though, so I won't buy the candy until it's actually Halloween. ;) Not only that, the last kid is gonna get a gold mine!!

Haha, I didn't actually buy them - my boyfriend got them as a gag gift when he left his previous job. He's not overweight, but is a major junk food lover, so I confiscated them from him and am keeping them in my house and doling out one candy bar at a time. I did buy myself some dark chocolate and have been enjoying it responsibly - 2 squares a day once every few days. I find milk chocolate too sweet for me these days - and I used to dislike dark chocolate!

I purchased snickers for the office today. I ate one mini and immediately said yuck. Made me super high from the sugar and it just didnt taste the same. It was AWESOME!! I no longer need candy!! =)

(Happy dance)

I also had a mini ice cream haagan daz coffee ice cream yesterday. All I tasted was the sugar. Those are off my list too.

Its so great to be able to say.. NO, I don't need them. NO, I don't want them. And truly mean it.

Have a great day ladies and gents!

I too have a candy-related story -- the other day my son was eating Gummy bears and I said, hey just give me one -- he kind of looked at me and gave it to me -- it was horrible!! Like eating Kool-aid but without Water -- yuck!!! And I used to LOVE gummy bears. no more gummies for me!! :D

Congratulations on the chocolate -- I'm not confident in myself enough to have it in the house. If there were any Achilles heel I might have, it would be chocolate. So, the fact that you haven't touched them makes you a goddess in my eyes! :lol:

      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.
