Me too. Smooth foods get me in trouble and are so good. I really think for me, if I don't count calories, I won't make it. I'm not obsessive...just generally round up and add. It becomes an issue for me when I'm so tight I need a slider to get the food down. then I'm tempted to cheat. I think a "diet" or "healthy eating" is going to always have to be a part of it for me, as well as Portion Control. But...here's my oddity of the day. I CAN'T EAT MUCH IF I SLOUCH! I CAN EAT ENOUGH SITTING STRAIGHT IN A DINING ROOM CHAIR. I CAN HARDLY EAT ANYTHING IF I'M SLOUCHING ALOT IN AN EASY CHAIR! I suppose that mechanical thing is similar to what Barbara said...being able to sometimes get stuck thing down by raising my arms over my head. I guess if I feel like I'm going to pig out, I need to go slouch and eat!

Glad to see all of you posting. Biker grammy you and I talked a while back. I'm going to Spiegel's support meeting on the 20th. A chef from University Hospital is the speaker. If you want we can meet and I'll drive us there. I ride the bus to town and back so it's no big deal for me to do my usual routine and then meet up with you and go.

I'm planning on being there on the 12th. I will be getting a fill that day with Dr. Spiegel so I won't be able to eat. However, some nice hot tea will do me. I'll see you at 6:30.

Dick and I love La Villa. I just work it in my plan. Our doctor says its OK just don't get carried away. However, I do love those chips and queso. I count cheese as Protein and don't worry about the calories so much. The big thing is to eat as normal as possible, but in smaller amounts. That being said, if you eat lots of high caloric foods than you probably won't lose very much or very fast.

I miss you guys as well. You can PM me and sometimes I do see that at work. Just make sure I know of the meetings!! I think La Villa once a month for our meetings is OK. That night we can have the husbands and when we go to the cafe we can go solo. Dick has a meeting in Kingwood on Mondays at 7:15 so going earlier to La Villa is good.

Having the sign on the table is a good ideal, BUT, seeing how I am from the Humble area and NOBODY knows about me having surgery it could get me busted!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Barbara, I would love to follow you to the group meeting. I do not get out much with me working from home. If it is not in Humble than it out of my reach. And yes I have lived here all my 50 years.

Hello Everyone:

I haven't posted lately to this thread, but I got banded by Dr. Spiegel on 3/1. I see the next meeting is on the 12th, I will not be able to make it, will be camping with the kids in Waller, TX at the Yogi Park. We will be leaving @ 1pm on Monday and returning on Wednesday.

Will look for the date of the next meeting.

Congrats bikergirl! You are brave taking the kids camping so soon after surgery. :girl_hug: At least you won't have to worry about what you can eat since you will be on liquids and maybe some mushies. :)

      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.
