Ready4success 380 Posted August 23, 2012 I went to my absolute fave place to eat, Panera bread, and I passed all the delish breads and pastries without even considering getting something. I ordered the chicken noodle and only drank the broth (I'm on my pre-op liquid diet) and got Water instead of my signature iced green tea. This is a huge accomplishment for me, because I used to have a toasted cinnamon crunch bagel every morning after work with an iced green tea, of course. While I haven't been perfect on the pre-op diet, I did start back at the gym after 3 years of not doing a single thing. I lost 11 pounds the first week.

I could only hope the cinnamon crunch bagel would make me sick post-surgery, so I wouldn't ever be tempted by it again, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeahDiarrhea 50 Posted August 23, 2012 I hear the panera bread commercials on pandora radio all the time! They are so annoying! So I don't think if I ever tried panera I could like it because their advertising is that bad.... Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know a lot restaurants with annoying commercials, it only makes me think about food more. 1 LeahDiarrhea reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
