oh donuts!



Recommended Posts

First, my boy friend is supportive of my surgery. But sometimes he can be so dumb. Last night he came home with a box of mixed donuts. One of my addictions is sweets. I love Boston cremes and there were two in there.

So wole he and the kiddo ate some, I was shaking as I ate my greek yogurt. Ive done so well not wanting anything bad, but last night and this morning has been torture! Despite the "just one bite..." reasoning, I was good and ate yogurt again. The other half of me wants to be mean and smash the box over his head. :(

Just frustrated.

My husband did this pre-op. He's always been supportive of the surgery. At first I thought he was trying to sabotage me. Then I realized, food has been literally the 3rd member of our marriage since day 1.

He would literally forget that I could no longer indulge. After a few conversations about it, I got him to realize he had to think about my food choices before buying me treats. That seemed to help him (not be frustred when I threw items out) and I.

You are a rock star. That was pretty insensitive what was done to you and you prevailed. You're an inspiration.

Ah sme here with my family. I've always taught my kids to share so they get a snack or buy treats or whatever and they offer me everything. Lol I just say no thanks. But after a while they started geting mad at eachother and reminding each other that I cannt eat that stuff. Its too funny. I just laugh now.

When I was about ten days postop, hubby wanted me to ride with him to get some Popeye's chicken. I figured okay that is better than me cooking. I got some mashed tators and they were so good.

But now everynight he sits and eats ice cream and does not bother me in the least

That is in the past

Thanks for the sympathy all. Much appreciated. He really is a supportive guy and encouraging with the workouts. He is very fit and just had a carb craving and didn't think about my reaction to the sweets. Its just strange that this is the first craving-fight I've had to deal with since the preop diet. Weird.

Even if you had taken a bite, probably one bite would have put your mind back in touch with your tiny teeny "stomach" and your stomach would have said Hell no--can't handle that fat and fried stuff.

Good job

      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.

      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.
