After WLS...I lost my 3 best friends



Recommended Posts

Oh how I miss you Ronald, Wendy and the King. We had many fond memories together but we are no longer friends. When I pass you in the street or in my car, a tear streams down my face...and I have to look away. See you were so bad for me...and we can't be friends.

When we traveled to Florida in early May, I just made sure I made good choices as we always stop at fast food places, use the bathroom and get stuff to go. I lost weight during the 10 days we were gone. I just made sure that I also walked!!!

In my opinion, if you lost those friends, then just maybe they weren't your friends to begin. You always find out who your true friends are when you need them the most.

I thought it would be very hard but I don't crave it. I do pass them by and miss the comfort level of it, but I have no regrets.

      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.
