So I am 10 days out from surgery and while preparing the boy's Easter baskets I had an overwhelming urge for a Hershey kiss! I am on full liquids/soft foods as long as I can tolerate it ok. So I decided to suck on one so it was liquid once I swallowed it. Nothing happened but now I feel guilty because I'm only 10 days out and I already had a small cheat! I know that Pre-surgery I would've ended up eating most of the bag, but still! I think a lot of it has to do with the fact I finally started to feel better yesterday (which was day 9 from surgery). Has anyone else eaten anything they were not supposed to?

I don't think sucking on a Hershey's kiss is going to harm you, just don't make it a habit...

Dude! I just posted almost the exact same thing! This whole chocolate reduces down to a liquid is total bs. It should be solid. Friggen addictive sugar and junk.

I was about three weeks out and was cutting up fresh sourdough at work and totally forgot about my sleeve and popped a piece in my mouth! I admit I had a little panic attack, but I survived. Just goes to show you we still have those automatic impulses that are hard to change after years of just eating anything.

It's sad to see such guilt over a bit of chocolate. With the sleeve surgery we are learning. When I signed up I knew it was going to be a new way of thinking and eating. Like someone said earlier-"I would have eaten the whole bag before surgery". and now 1 little piece there is dread. I'm a little farther out and I try not to deny myself anything, but I know I have been picky about what I will and will not eat. Sometimes it is a bite, and the rest goes to my hubby or the garbage if I'm at work. We gotta work on what works for us and NO beating ourselves up. Good Luck

I had 3/4 a Cadbury egg. Considering I usually eat at LEAST 15 a season, I'm not gonna beat myself up. It was delicious. And I didn't even WANT the rest of it. I call that a success!

      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.
