A couple of non-scale victories today.

One, was I had bought a can of sugar free whipped cream the last time I went shopping to put on fruit, etc. I found it today, and I had totally forgotten about it. Also, 3 days ago I had bought a candy bar, which I also found today.

I can tell you that never in my lifetime have I EVER forgotten either a chocolate bar or a can of whipped cream in my house. I was absolutely shocked, and amazed. And happy.

My relationship with food is really changing. I am not thinking and obsessing about food all the time. Sometimes I even forget about it.

Wow.

Have a great night everyone!

She will probably come at the most annoying and inconvenient time for you.

I have a friend who had a daughter 4 years after her husband had a vasectomy. Then, she had two more after she had had her tubes tied! LOL

You know what's weird? I have had no restriction and today when I ate my lunch, I felt like I could feel the meat passing through kinda painfully.

I have no fill, but have heard that you can get tight during premenstrual time.

That is crazy!!! My husband's doctor made really sure. They cut the tubes, cauterized (burned) the ends and tied them!!! :)

Audree, I missed my period the first month after surgery. (And I never miss mine). I think it was from the liquid diet. Just my guess.

That is so weird!! I was supposed to start the day of surgery and didn't, so could I miss again?? I feel tired, hungry and emotional like I usually do... Man, I hope it doesn't screw up my weigh in tomorrow!!:)

Did you notice that it messed with your weigh ins?

Well the last 2 days I have been doing great, eating 1550-1600 calories a day and now today I am hungrier again. So I would say that what you have read is accurate, based on my personal research, lol.

you know, i can eat whatever i want for like 2 days

i crave all kinds of craziness

then when old aunt flo arrives

TIGHT AS CAN BE for at least 36 hours if not 48

a few other people have said the same thing at support, so my educated assumption would be that hormones are running amuk.

Weigh in today = -1 lb for a total of 8.5 lbs lost in 5 weeks = 1.7 lbs per week average. I'll take it!

      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.
