I just don't even care..........and that's good



Recommended Posts

I am one week out, feeling great and I have taken on a healthy "I just dont' even care" attitude.

For now, I am on a clear liquid fast and I just don't even care that I can't partake in the beautiful food I am feeding my dh and 3 kids.

I just don't even care how long it takes to lose this weight, because I know that every day I make good healthy choices, I will be lighter tomorrow. If it takes me 4 years, I will still be here, God willing.

I don't care that I only have one pair of pants that fit because I know that each and every day I will be getting closer to fitting allllllllllll those sizes in my closet.

Looking forward to each and every day.

Great attitude!

These days are only temporary...all the beautiful food will be there later, and you will enjoy it again. For now, you are doing what needs to be done, so you can stay a healthy and active mom and wife...

That was really important to me, and I am so glad I did it! You will be, too!

I'm looking forward to hearing about your progress!

      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.
