I'm so sorry to hear that :( will keep you and your family in my prayers, but in the meantime take a deep breath...take a step back and just keep going from here. I am also an emotional eater and what helps me daily is to think of how I'm feeling before I put anything in my mouth, and the nutritonal value of what I'm eating. I still think it's ok to have a treat every so often, but daily 5 or 6 times a day is a problem. Don't sweat it, we are all human, and are definitely not perfect! Keep your chin up and don't sweat this, just remember to think of how you feel, and what you've eaten already before you eat any meal. *hugs* AND get those donuts out of the house! I can't keep chocolate here it's too much of a temptation. When you have a treat buy the minimal amount so there are no leftovers to snack on for a few days.

Oh wow, your facing the same delimma I have then, kids that love snacks! I have a 6 and a 8 year old, They love Cookies, and brownies and that gets tough for me to have those in the house too, because I'm the one that has to cook them. It's so tempting to pick off the cookie dough and eat it. I've been trying to replace those things with fruits and other healthy Snacks, we will still have cookies, just not as often as before. My girls like cuties, (those tiny tangerines), grapes, string cheese, and bananas. I'm still working on veggies with them, if they see them they won't eat it so I puree them and hide them in spaghetti sauce. :)

Hope everything works out for you and your aunt.

Awesome benefit of the sleeve is you can't quit being sleeved which means...

learn from your mistake (we have all been there)

get back on track as soon as you can (we have all continued to lose weight)

Recognize your trigger and have a plan on how to deal with it in the future.

Your family is in my thoughts. Be healthy for them! Let your family be your motivation instead of your reason to eat.

Everything will be ok.

      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.
