I like to sit and eat dinner with my family I don't cook separate food for myself I eat the same stuff just a whole lot less of it.. Don't alienate yourself at the table

I plan on doing the same thing as soon as I am allowed more foods. It's the perfect opportunity to get the whole family eating healthier. Also in regards to the Protein shakes my Doc and Nutritionist discourage liquid calories even from Protein Shakes after two weeks post op.

I have been so lucky that my fiancee has changed his eating habits. He eats everything I eat. But he will have beef and steak. I have to say it doesn't make me jealous. I can eat it eventually. He lost 15 lbs already because he stopped eating out.

But no one f's with my popsicles...just saying lol.

Not all of us are in the eat anything phase. Plus, not much appeals to me now so even when I get to the anything phase it will have to be slowly worked in.

True to that Ms.AntiBand!!

And sometimes I eat what they are eating or at least the Protein part and sometimes I don't. Like last night I made them Pasta (never really liked pasta) So I ate something different but it far from "alienates" me from them!

I have so many other fun ways to alienate if I want to! :P

Thanks for the heads up. I need something crunchy. Will keep that in mind.

Correction it is actually fish fillets (Gorton's)they're crunchy and breaded with 10gm of Protein 250 calories ....But to me the look so small they look like fish sticks!lol

Tawnie~ I hear you girl.... My husband has always had a bowl of Cereal an hour or so before bed- every night since we have been married 11 years ago. And now-- when he goes to get it- and sits next to me on the couch and I can hear him crunching on it - I want to make him spill it on himself. Hey are you off pureed foods now? I am still on pureed.< /div>

I told my husband if he wanted to continue to eat anything after dinner he had to do so in the kitchen like a single woman!!!

I don't want food around me...

Now that he has got the hang of it, he ask can I fix you a warm Protein drink. I'm sure he does that so that way he doesn't feel bad about eating.

My family lives Pasta,rice and all the food that at this time aren't to good for me. My husband and I slowing switched from white grains to all brown and mult-grain. As my mind and stomach get the hang of things sometime is best to avoid sit down dinners ...My main focus is on eating small portions,small bites and chewing,chewing and chewing some more...Once I am in full control we will have our sit down dinner again...

It is very frustrating with my kids also I feed them first then sit to eat my food and they are like oooh what are you eating mommy can I have some?

      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.
