Uhmm.. who is getting snotty because it sure isn't me. And how on earth would you know when or how much i work out? Anyways' date=' that was immature so I'm done talking about it.[/quote']

It's obvious you didn't work out.... You are here confessing like a murderer ,if you did you would not be filled with remorse and need to lash out. Do you, and when your "sleeve fails"and you get converted to bypass. Come back here and let the nice ladies "support"you ,after all you deserve it.

Amazing how co signing behaviors that got us here is seen as support. But suggest exercise and you are a troll.

If we're confessing... I went to the Olive Garden with my pregnant wife for the never ending Pasta bowl. I got the angel hair and marinara and ate maybe 1/4, probably less. Tracked it on MFP. Yeah, Pasta = carbs, but it wasn't like I ate a basket of those delicious breadsticks. Ok. I had one. Which had twice as many calories in it than my pasta, but OMG was it good.

A treat now and then - be it sweet or savory - makes this journey a lot less miserable, but now and then can't be every day. That's the one thing that has changed for me and I can live with that.

Vsginnj- what have to realize is to each his own- if he/ she is ok with eating TWO ice cream sandwiches - then that's his/her life- this is not your battle or concern - just take care of yourself. And please don't let these ppl upset you... I just look at it n be like Wow... Really? Then move on!

I'm so scared to cheat, haha. I've been watching that scale go down every other day and I'm CONVINCED if I have anything sweet at all it's going to bounce back up to my original weight. (I know this isn't the case but karma has never been nice to me)

If you limit yourself from everything good you're going to go crazy and binge. I've been to a few support group meetings and more than several people have stated this. As long as you keep such things as, let's say a weekly or bi-weekly treat, you should be absolutely fine.

I'm living quasi-vicariously through you guys until I stop looking at the scale and work up the courage to visit a Coldstone. I think if I meet my mini goal I'll treat myself to a scoop!

Everything in moderation and we all are different. I can eat a few spoonfuls of potatoes and feel ok. I cannot tolerate even a few bites of Pasta or I feel sick. I have a cold treat in the form of Bryers low carb ice cream bars a few times a week and my nutritionist is ok with it. I still get my Protein in and yet will enjoy a small piece of cheese pizza with my family when we go out. I don't feel guilt and neither should any of us.

Why are some people on here so rude and nasty we are all in this together everyone knows what to eat this is a life style change but we also have to live our lives and if someone wants to eat a icecream sandwich in moderation that is fine they don't need to be beat up about it. I cannot imagine eating just Protein and not having a treat for the rest of my life. But you van rest assured I will not talk about out here since some people think they ate the judge and the jury

I don't let the negativity get to me. I just enjoy reading many of the post knowing we are all in this together and many of us are going through the same thing.

I agree, the attacking of others really needs to stop, please.

On another note, I got my sleeve to be able to eat like a normal person, not to deprive myself of things I love. Normal people eat treats, such as ice cream sandwiches. It is okay. Like the OP said, pre-sleeve, she would have ate the whole box. I am a salty/crunchy kind of gal myself. Before my surgery, I would sit down and eat a whoe bag of chips with dip. Now, I still eat chips and dips when I want it, but thanks to my sleeve, it is just a small portion like "normal" people eat and I have not sabotaged my weight loss efforts by doing so.

I snack all the time. Even have carbs ,use sugar in my caffeinated coffee and love ice cream . Last week I bought a pound of fudge on the boardwalk mmm it was so tasty!! Ok my method may be harsh but that is how I give it to myself. I respond better to a kick in the butt than a butt pat and forget not everyone needs it like that, I think my original comment was misunderstood and I reacted shamefully. I beg forgiveness to anyone I offended.

Frozen yogurt is really good' date=' and a good alternative to ice cream. I actually sometimes make my own chocolate Protein frozen yogurt. Then i get an awesome treat that i can include as one of my protein meals & i feel so spoiled lol.[/quote']

Do you mix Protein Powder into pre made sugar free low fat yogurt or make your own? Trader Joes's just came out with a 0 fat Greek-I want to add protein!

      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.
