I screwed up... I think.



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone.

I made a boo-boo. While I'm being honest, I made two boo-boo's.

I had some friends over to watch the NBA Finals. None of them know I had surgery. Of course, they brought pizza.

I took one bite from a slice of pepperoni pizza and picked off the remaining cheese.

Then, yesterday I had maybe two handfuls of popcorn. With butter ????

It was bad but so good all at the same time.

Any ideas what to enter into MFP for the pizza? Does anyone know how many calories that is?

No need for the guilt trip. I know I screwed up. Thanks in advance!

If you type "pizza topping only" into mfp, there's actually quite a lot of options to choose from :)

Bad bad bad!!! When in doubt "guesstimate"

Perhaps 1/2 slice of pizza?

Why? Did you secretly eat the whole pizza??

You are ok! It's ok to have a bit of anything sometimes :D

Haha, I definitely didnt eat the whole pizza! I just wish I didn't have pizza only two months out! I thought maybe it would be okay at 7 months, but not two!

I won't dwell. What's done is done!

Don't beat yourself up. You did good just having a bit! Think of how much you might have had pre-surgery. Not saying to do it again' date=' but....[/quote']

You're right. I probably could have indulged in half of a pie pre surgery.

I agree with lipsticklady- don't dwell and don't beat yourself up. I think a cheat treat is ok once in a while as long as ts not a regular thing and you are extra diligent the rest of the week. That's just my opinion. Pre op, you could have easily eaten 2-4 slices plus Snacks possibly and what else might you have been eating the rest of the week?

I don't plan to never taste pizza again and if it means a slower weight loss course, I am ok with that as long as I trend down

Oh heavens, I don't plan on EVER giving up pizza! Just will have to eat less of it & yeah, 4 slices, no problem! Hopefully after I'm sleeved, 4 bites for special occasions. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this....

      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.
