Ya HAH! Me too. I'm not a picky eater and don't have food issues other than I really, REALLY like it, the question that stopped me was: "How was your childhood? Relationship with your parents?"

I don't know how it was relevant, but my answer was: "GREAT! I had a pretty uneventful childhood." In actuality, it was a train wreck. I so didn't want to go there.

My answer to that question will be my childhood was a TRAIN WRECK but I'm in counseling for it. ;) and I LOOOVEE food too. Especially all the ones I'm not supposed to eat. But I WILL down play that. hahahaha

I confess that watching others eat now often makes me feel ill

I confess that I am scared of turning into a snob

I think UI have turned into a bit of a health food, anti-sugar, anti-processed food, make it yourself from scratch snob.

Yesterday my family went to a Chinese place and they were ordering family style. They ordered orange chicken, lo-mein noodles, fried rice, kung pao chicken, crispy fried beef and egg rolls.

I told them I would have to either order the scallops and asparagus or the shrimp and snow peas. I saw the slight roll of the eyes. None of them eat seafood BTW. I have to admit that I was astounded at their selections - the very worst on the menu health-wise.

Yeah, I'm officially a snob.

OMG! I thought that I was the only one that went to the dark side! I have become such snob when it comes to eating now. I even get angry at my hubby for making bad choices at dinner and not wanting to share. I can't help (actually I don't want too). yayyyyyyyyyy! :)

I'm very judgmental of what others eat now. Sitting at a buffet disgusts me.

I am relieved to read that I am not alone!

They say ex smokers become the worst anti smoking critics and snobs so perhaps it is the same for ex fatties?

I'm on day 2 of my two week liquid pre-op diet and I was in an all day meeting at work where they brought in lunch. TORTURE. I ate 5 dry lettuce leaves and 3 chunks of chicken from the inside of a wrap.

Then 3 cups of chicken broth I brought from home.

I confess that I do compare my weight loss to others' on this site and get pissed off almost daily.

I confess that I bought a 4 pack of Moscato Rose this past weekend and drank them all in 2 days. (I'm still proud of myself though, because I used to buy the big bottles and have 3-4 glasses every day, before I had the surgery.)

I confess that I just cannot get motivated enough to exercise like I should.

I confess that I always look at myself when I pass a window at work because I can't believe how small I'm getting.

I confess that I still eat fast food a lot, I don't like to cook for only myself.

      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.
