I just want a Bagel!!!!

[soniacan 0]

Hi everyone.

I feel like I'm losing my mind!! I am done with week one of my liquid diet and did ok except for my cheese incident and now I have 7 days til banding.

Just 7 days and I am seriously not getting any work done because all I can think about is how I'm probly not going to enjoy bread again and I just want a bagel!!

Did anyone else feel like the week before was harder?

Am i just being a quak?

I din't have to do any preop diet so luckily I didn't have that hurdle. It will get better, trust me. Once your banded and have a good fill food will not be a problem. I can eat bread and I've had 3 fills, I just don't eat it very, very seldom. It's just not an issue anymore. Good luck on your upcoming surgery and I will be thinking about you and hoping for you an uneventful surgery and a rapid recovery.

If you can control yourself with just one I say do it. Many doctors don't require the pre-op diet, mine wanted a low-fat diet with Myocel added to it.

They do this to make sure your liver is in prime shape as they have to move it out of the way.

Best wishes on your surgery.

Thanks for the reassurance!

It was weird. I got up this morniong and hopped on the scale and the need for the bagel went away! It's finally all clicked that I am just 6 days away.

If that mood strikes again, get a bagel chip. They will go down better later and the crunchy satisfies lots of cravings. I don't really like bread but I make croutons alot and then when I have a bread thing, I just have 1-2 croutons. 1-2, not 1-2 cups like I did before bandland. Celeste
