All I Want To Do Is Eat



Recommended Posts

I'm having a terrible couple of weeks. All I want to do is stuff my face the past 2-3 weeks. I have not been following any kind of eating plan. I'm eating starches and not getting my water/protein in. I need some encouragement and a swift kick in the pants!

Just go back and think about why you got the surgery in the first place. All the pain you went through... All the money you spent. All of the emotions you went through.

Is it worth it to just give up and give into those darn cravings?!

Time to pull out your before picture and put it on your refrigerator, or hang in your pantry. I saw a video blog on youtube of one girl who even had a before picture of herself taped to her water bottle so it wd remind her constantly why she needed to keep drinking her Water. Ask yourself every time you choose to open the refrigerator or pantry do you want to go back to the girl in the picture. You have done a great job with your weight loss so far and you are stronger than this!

Just what I was looking for you guys. I have been stressed and I'm thinking about finding a therapist to go see because all that's left is the mental. I can't turn to eating to cope.

      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.
