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....

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
