You know, in all honesty, one day of blasting your system with carbs actually might help your resting metabolic rate. Not encouraging people to do this, but why not make lemonade from lemons? Just don't do it for more then 2 days or you really will start to store the excess calories. Carb cycling or something like it.

The good news is that you didn't have 3 pieces of cake 3/4 or a pizza!!!! That's not that bad I loved this surgery because you can still enjoy life but you get to enjoy it in moderation

I do agree that it is OK to throw caution in the wind every so often ( had my April drink last night - an apple martini shaken with some expensive vodka I picked up).

I think it would be a fallacy to think you can succeed long term without being keenly aware of diet and exercise. You are going to go through shock and awe treatment at the end of weight loss phase if you do not develop good diet and fitness plans while you are going from month 1 to 6.

The first six months are almost designed to help the post op get their lifestyle plan in order forcing a progressive introduction of food and exercise. Think about this. It is important to heed this warning in order to enter life as a thin person and remain a thin person.

I will eat something not so great: crackers. And then I'll eat cheese with the crackers.

Then I laugh at myself when I start thinking that I'm binging, pre-sleeve, I would eat a box of ritz and a pound of cheese. 10 crackers and 2 slices of cheese isn't too bad.

Always cracks me up, but I just don't let it happen often. We all have slips, and we can all learn from those slip ups.

      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.
