shewolf my dr is very strict thats why

billymom i gave in girl i had some wendys chicken nuggets and fries. and you know what i wasnt satisfied. it was like eating nothing. butr i am better today. made a new batch of broth made my pudding. but i forgot the gum. but i brought my tea. i might even get a cup of coffee with sf Syrup from starbucks. i am ok now

now the only thing standing in the way of the surgery is my mammogram results its taking so long to get them if something is wrong they will cancel my surgery i dont want that so ive been emailing my dr to get the results stat so if something is wrong we can resolve it before the 12th

Hey ngm!!! I'm glad you feel better today!! My psych always asks me after any sort of hiccup "so what did you learn?" I'm glad your little night snack reminded you it's just hunger and you can prepare a little more, drink more broth coffee pudding, to make this part of your journey easier :) actually our "Wendy's" here in aus only serve icecream shakes and those bullet-proof hotdogs! But I can imagine that their "edible food-like products " (as Michael Pollan would call) them are pretty bland...

Oh and I too hope happy test results come your way soon so you don't have to worry! :D

Yeah I know!!! My surgeon doesn't need a test but he's drilled it into me that I can lose all the weight in the world but it's the cigs that will affect my recovery stats more!!!

(btw, I wonder how those tests go with the nicotine patch?)

The worst thing: I quit while in hospital for pneumonia but started again like two weeks later!!!! It's gunna happen, it's gunna have to happen, but..... this is your thread! All attention on you and your good self!!!! ;)

Did you get a Bari-bear/buddy? I was going to order what my partner calls a "medicinal moose" but my mum sent me a thick pillow with my late puppy dog Colin on it... I know that'll get me thru..

Are you a fan of Michael Pollan? I love his book 60 food Rules. Do not eat anything you can not pronounce or spell; Do not eat anything that comes through a car window; Do not eat anything your grandmother would not recognize as food.....

      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.
