Hello October 2nd!

[bnape29 30]

If we snack all day doesn't that defeat the purpose of our sleeve? Who here is planning to log their food? Who is not?

I know myself, and I have to log to stay on track. The log hold me accountable and makes me be honest with myself

I'm definitely logging, I got in the habit during my very long year and a half wait for my surgery. My surgeon required it too. For me, snacking is a slippery slope

[wannabesleeved 7]

I'm definitely gonna be logging everything!

Hi all! I will be having my surgery on October 1st! I'm getting very excited. I'm glad to be here where we can support one another. I am currently on the pre-op diet consisting of 3 Protein Shakes and 1 high protein/low fat meal.

How's everyone doing on the Pre-op diet?? I'm hungry!!! Glad I can at least have a small dinner tonight! It can only get easier right? Hoping these 2 weeks go fast but I'm sure they won't since I am so excited to get this started!

I'm starving! I brought 1 Protein shake and like 2 cups of Jello to work, it's all gone and I'm hungry! I'm glad I get off in a half hour, I'll go home and have a second shake and patiently wait for dinnertime!

I have had some chicken broth today and a lean shake from GNC. I also had tons of Water with special K Protein water mix. strawberry kiwi is pretty Good!! I'm really looking forward to my dinner. I went to the sea food part of the grocery store and got individual portions of fish for me and had him wrap them all separate. I also got the baby veggie packs on the go to have my veggies and I'm planning on steaming them. I thought since I have to make dinner for my family it would be easier for me to have my own food set aside to cook quickly. Does anyone know if we can count Soup like cream of chicken as liquid? I think it would make it better for me instead of the Protein Shake.< /p>

oh my goodness... I'm hungry too :/ My 1 meal of meat & veggies helped a little, I decided to make it my lunch, had tuna and spinach. Then shake for dinner and sf black cherry Jello before bed.

I have been using the lose it app and logging food & exercise over a year now. I log everything, the good bad & ugly. I printed a few summary reports of last few weeks to bring to my nutrition meeting. I have been able to honestly look back at my trends & devise different strategies. Logging hold u accountable. It still counts if u put it in your mouth and don't log it. Someone in weight watchers told me that. Hehehe

Kiss4chris same date, good luck

ok, so if one meal can be 6 oz chicken, as well as broth, as well as vegatables.. I think one of my dinners will be a modified chicken (no noodle)- Soup. What are some other ideas that you all be creating during the next two weeks

[jinxxy5 151]

That's a good idea! I'm pretty boring though. Yesterday I had chicken and broccoli, today I had boneless pork ribs and salad. It says I can season it anyway I like, as long as the toppings are carb free. I'll go patrolling for a carb free Italian type of dressing for my chicken and I'll be set for the next 2 weeks
