I confess since my vacation in mid July I have not made good food choices...portions yes but nutritious food no.

I confess I never get all my Water and Vitamins in.

I confess I enjoy drinks on the weekends even though I know they are responsible for my slowing weight loss.

I confess that I miss my shoes...of all the things to not fit! Seriously?!

I confess I watch my boyfriend eat like **** and refuse to exercise with me and I despise him a little for it...I am less and less attracted to him everyday...which makes me feel like a jerk and a hypocrit!

You were on vacation, I know once I am sleeved if I go on vacation my diet will be a little more lax as well.I am lucky my hubs is an exercise junkie but he eats like a beast and I have already let him know that has got to stop lol.

I confess...

1. I really want an ice cold Diet Coke.

2. I'm not as afraid to look in the mirror anymore.

3. I find it irritating that my guy friends have started asking me out and people in general are nicer and meaner.

4. I miss having a full wardrobe (but I've already donated 4 garbage bags of clothes to GoodWill).

5. I feel exhausted all the time and do not workout as much as I know I should.

I confess that I am still mentally addicted to food

I am still trying to cope with the fact that I'll never eat certain foods again (subs, a plate of just Pasta, etc...)

I need to eat waaaaaay more Protein than I currently do, er, actually, I need to eat more in general than I already do. If I get 2 meals in/day it's amazing.

I haven't told anyone except my husband and mother in law about the sleeve, yet after losing 80 lbs, not a single person (other than the 2 of them) has commented about my drastic weight loss, and it has seriously messed with my head.

Oh, and #5: I drink diet soda 2-3 times/week. I feel guilty doing it, but I need the caffeine and do not like coffee.< /p>

Actually many doctors require it as well. I'm self pay and had to have one just as all of my doctors patients do.

That said, of course I wasn't honest. I wasn't going to go into abuse as a child etc because that isn't my problem and I don't want to talk to a stranger about it.

Amen sister!

Sometimes people don't want to say anything because they don't want to offend you -- like, they thought you were fat & ugly before, but you look great now!! -- that sort of thing.

There was a woman at work who lost a bunch of weight, but I would never feel comfortable saying anything about it because why would anything at work depend on her weight?? It seems inappropriate.

That being said, I totally can see where you're coming from. :) after 80 lbs I will want some stinking props, please. I lost 10 so far on my liquid preop and the compliments can start flooding in any time!!! ;)

Lol. I've even told my husband. He's not even super good looking or anything. I think it might have to do with the fact that he treats obese people with respect and he gave me something that no one else has ever given me... He's gonna change my life! (I'm only 3 weeks out)

1. I confess that I'm not perfect HOWEVER I'm still at goal living my thin and fit dream.

2. I confess that I don't always follow all the sleever rules HOWEVER I'm 2 years post op and I'm healthier than I've ever been in my life.

3. I confess that I do eat sugar and carbs sometimes HOWEVER I'm regular in the bathroom.

4. I confess that I secretly would still love to get smaller HOWEVER I love the way I look in pictures and in the mirror.

5. I confess that I no longer worry about what I'm eating as much HOWEVER it's nice to constantly obsess about what I'm eating.

Enjoy life people, because that's what this is really all about. In the end, only love and family really matter. Blessings!

      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.
