I made it through Christmas/New Years without any real cheating on my foods, but I was only a month + from surgery then and no real appetite. Now it's Easter, my appetite is back and along comes my favorite bad food.......Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs............................wish me luck!

I nibbled the whole top off of a Reese's PB egg last night before I snapped out of it and threw it away. Not sure what I was thinking when I bought those for my kids Easter baskets,but it was a bad idea!! I hope I can find some willpower this weekend!

OMG, I love those. Luckily I haven't been to the store lately so I haven't been tempted yet.

Have some Peanut Butter toast (I found Protein bread!) or a strawberry with nutella for a treat. Don't bring the contraband into the house.

Of course my kids never were really into candy. I hid hard boiled eggs and cash in hollow eggs. My daughter would rather shop than eat candy any day - even from an early age.

If you need chocolate and can limit yourself to a tiny square a day, Trader Joes has 72% dark chocolate for about $2 for three bars. It's completely decadent with a bit of good coffee.

I think I'll be ok and not eat them. Stopped at the convenience store the other day and saw them for sale at the counter. I faught them off pretty well. It's the one's after Easter for half price that are usually most tempting. :P

      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.
