1. The NCAA basketball tournament to determine the national collegiate champion is often known as March Madness. There are exciting matchups and upsets throughout the tournament. How are you going to celebrate this year’s tournament?

Not at all. I don’t want to be anywhere near a March Madness party because I’ll eat too much for my weight loss surgery diet.0
-
In moderation. There are a few treats that I have to have, but I’m going to have tiny portions and eat them slowly.1

The healthy way. I’m going to play basketball or get in another workout before each game, and I’ll watch the game without eating.0

The old way. I’m going to host parties every weekend and drink beer and eat chicken wings until I can’t eat anymore. Chicken is high in protein, so what’s the problem?0

What are you talking about? I’m so busy eating right and working out that I don’t know what March Madness is. It better not interfere with my weight loss!2

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 reply
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.
