My confessions....

I confess that I have a cherry dr pepper once a day...every day...takes all day to drink it, but I get it done.

....that I dont get all my Protein or Water in...and I dont try

....that at times I really wish I had my whole stomach back so I can finish a sandwich.

.... I get extremely irritated with the people on the blog that gets so upset at the thought of a donut or a cookie... I never intended to give up my favorite foods just to limit my consumption.

.... And finally I confess I love absolutely love this site since Fishy was banned!!

A daily dose of Miralax will keep it soft and not cause cramps. Make sure you keep you fluids up

I'm four months out and I confess:

1. That I love my sleeve and I love being down 4 sizes!

2. That I have been very moody at times with my hubby and kids, and then it makes me mad when they look at me like I'm crazy!

3. That I drink coffee on the weekends!

4. That I do not exercise as much as I should.

5. That I'm obesessed with tracking in myfitnesspal and what the scale says!

6. That I know I talk about my food, what is healthy to eat, stalls, Water, Protein, too much with people who have not had surgery, i.e. friends, family and at work and I have to tell myslef to just stop!

7. That when we are out to eat and I look at what other people have on their plates it grosses me out!

8. That this is the best thing I have ever done for myself!

He was a rotten person who was super rude to everyone. Nothing he posted was helpful or constructive. A slew of people reported him and he got kicked out

I confess that I'm having a really bad day and am going to confess my negative thoughts.

I confess that it really ticks me off that I have to count and track everything I put in my mouth, thats what I hatred about dieting before surgery

I confess that it really ticks me off that I'm only a month out and an in my second stall, what gives?!

I confess that I want to stuff my face with a sackful of Krystal burgers, large chili cheese fries, and a large coke and it ticks me off that I can't

I confess that I thank God that I can't stuff my face anymore

I confess that it's 'that' time of the month and I realize that's where these feelings are stemming from

Ok, thx, I feel better

So don't...

I don't. It would drive me insane, and I have no intention of (hopefully) living another 50 years and having to count everything that goes in my mouth. :)

Yeah, I'm not good at it and have tried all the different websites and bought journals that are supposed to make it easy but blah. I've been trying because everyone says to track it, up Proteins, up Water, lower carbs, etc to break a stall. But dang, I lost weight before surgery doing all that without having these stupid stalls. Frustrating!

      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.
