July Sleevers How R We Doing?



Recommended Posts

Same for me. This is a notoriously bad time of year for me. Lots of devastating anniversaries come up around this time and food used to be my comfort, I find myself trying to revisit some former habits these days. Also craving lots of sweets and it seems to get worse the more I try to satisfy it with ridiculous sugar free imitations. Going to try all liquids for a couple of days to see if that resets my taste buds. Down 67 pounds but hadn't lost anything for about two weeks. Just dropped two pounds in the last couple of days, though. Hoping I am back on a losing streak.

That is awesome!I was 292 on surgery day and I am only down to 230. I know that I have been making some wrong choices so I have to get back on track ASAP. I think working out five days a week is almost making me worse because I think I can afford more bad choices, which is SO not true.

      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.
