My surgeon warned me away from caffeine, but I have it anyway :-x I get why they discourage it (it's a diuretic and dehydrates you when it's hard enough getting liquids in anyway) but I don't have a problem staying hydrated and without coffee I would have to be committed!

chocolate, I have a couple of Hershey Kisses 3 or 4 x's a week. I had this surgery so I wouldn't have to give up on everything and compared on how I used to eat chocolate before surgery I'm doing GREAT! Isn't that why we all had this surgery so we still "on occasion" get to have a little of what we want? Except Brownies I can't touch them yet, I'm still too weak, Aww Man I want a Brownie, Damn I shouldn't have went there :angry: ...LOL :P

LOL. I've been craving brownies for over a week. I even bought a box thinking I would make them in the little tiny cupcake pans, but then I thought that would be too much temptation. If they are little, I would probably eat more of them. So I figured I'd just make them in a regular pan. But I havent worked up the nerve yet. It was TOM last week so I think thats why I was literally DYING from want. This week not so much so they're still in the cupboard :)

I got you beat....My daughter started Pastry school last January and she brings her work HOME...Dangit!! Truthfully most of the time it doesn't bother me (Thank God) but every once in a while I am so tempted to mug her at the friggin door! Oh crap lost my composure there for a sec, Sorry.. :unsure: LOL :D

We are all in this together right MKbalimath! So we shall overcome! (I am so damn preachy) Ha-Ha!

The first two week post op I was "detoxing" badly I wanted to eat everything but I coudn't cause my tummy was like "Hell No" (excuse the french) but after that first two weeks that went away and my taste have change tremendously, I have no taste for carbs like rice, potatoes, Pasta etc. (I wish I could say that about chocolate but you can't have everything, huh) So hang in there you'll see the changes really soon! ;)

Yep we're all in this together! The good thing about this sleeve though is that in time, when we've got our sh** together, we'll be able to eat anything in moderation. For now though, I'm TRYING to learn better eating habits. Today has been a VERY hard day though. I'm going to the gym and need to at least burn 600 calories now :/

Very, Very True!

I have pretty much got the good eating habits down (I think) first Protein then Veggies (usually broccoli with a lil cheese) I have not wanted anything else (carbs) since before surgery, I have no taste for it. The one problem I do get it the "Grazing" thing going on I have been noticing that I will eat a little but all day long, its' weird, nothing thats not healthy, you know Protein and stuff or icees, my stomach loves ice cold anything. I hope this urge stops soon. :blink:

      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.
