Recommended Posts

Oh man, yesterday was just a stupid day.

Bfast: coffee, was gonna have a Protein bar but my preceptor brought us gourmet Cookies to the teaching session, so I had a cookie instead

Lunch: friend's birthday party at a pizza place, had a diet Coke and a slice of pizza

Snack: coconut rice with scallops and shrimp

Later, fell prey to clever marketing at the grocery store and had some Easter chocolates (they were shaped like baby chicks - could not resist the cuteness!)

Dinner: went out with bf and his friends to this disgusting pub. Had a really gross strawberry daiquiri that made me feel sick and trippy. Then my chicken avocado burger arrived and it was REVOLTING. The meat was like jelly. It made me feel nauseous and gave me terrible gas. I had to study lots last night, so I left early alone. Then upon getting home I realized I didn't have my set of keys - OR my phone to text my boyfriend and ask him to return sooner. Went to kill some time at a coffee shop and had a dark chocolate latte. Finally, 1.5 hrs later he showed up - at least they didn't go to a movie, like I was starting to think! Then I started studying. The material we're covering now is super-hard, and I got stressed out and totally stress-ate 6 seashell pralines. Blah!

On the bright side, 1 lb down this morning - shows you how a few pieces of chocolate and a sweet drink won't ruin you, I guess.

"Hungry" day + sabotage from classmates = less than stellar eating!

Bfast: small no-sugar-added smoothie. Then I came to our small group learning session and someone brought donuts for everyone! I had a Canadian maple. Then someone else showed up with Sausage & Egg McMuffins! I had a few bites and threw the rest out. I guess now I'll make sure not to have bfast before my sessions, as my classmates in this group seem to like bringing treats

Lunch: wonton Soup with vegs, half a cabbage roll with some sour cream

Snack: chocolate bar (naughty!)

Dinner: going out to an Indian restaurant, so some sort of curry most likely

On the upside, I've noticed a trend - it seems that the days when I feel particularly hungry seem to be followed by a drop on the scale. Maybe my leptin levels just rise to try and make up for the impending decrease in poundage? Doesn't seem to matter if I eat what/how much I want on those days, either.

What Indian restaurant are you going too? Have you ever been to Haweli downtown (beside Bay) or there is Rasoi down on 34 ave (mmm I am drooling just thinking about it).

It's funny you say that - we ended up going to a different place because my boyfriend whined that he had Indian food (without me! and I love it!) last night BUT I was planning to go to Haweli. I have a Groupon for there, so I guess we'll just try it tomorrow instead! I've had takeout from there once, the naan paneer is definitely the best I've ever had.

I've been to Rasoi, but it was a massive function with a buffet and they totally cheaped out - all the curries were basically sauce with hardly any chicken or meat in it, which was kind of lame. With several hundred people coming, they could've used to opportunity to advertise their restaurant, but they just served mediocre stuff instead.

Bless your heart th the puke. The baby was up only 2 times last night. He is a child that does not need much sleep; however mom does!!! Thankfully today is Friday and I am ready for the weekend. scale moved again. If it keeps it up, I may be able to get to my Easter goal. I had my dr appt on Wed with my dr and he was not all excited about my stalls that I had. He wants me to see the NUT again and wants me to increase my cardio to 20-30 minutes 5 times a week in addition to my weights. I do my weights on my lunch break and I do not know how I am going to squeeze in the cardio, however I have to because he will check on me thru my husband. (They work together occasionally)

Today's menu (3 months out)

B- 2 boiled eggs

L- 1/3 cup red Beans (no rice)

D- thinking a fish portion.

S- 1/2 Protein bar and string cheese

vites- gone

water- working

I also drank a Special K H20 strawberry kiwi powdered thing (kind of like a crystal lite) except it has 5 grams of Protein and 5 grams of Fiber.

I might eat something else later...snack #3, I'm already at 90 grams of protein but that is probably since I started my day off with a Protein Shake. 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.
