That's hard with him on the road and you at home... Did that 25 years ago when my daughter was young... Don't envy you! Easier today though with technology... Cell phones, Skype and FaceTime.

What about packing your lunch, the fast food is loaded with fat and sodium not to mention tons of calories. You have done so well from your surgery... don't let this get out of hand. Have you done the 5 day test diet ?? I am 5 months post op but have been reading about it. People that start to put back on the lbs. way after surgery do this 5 day diet to see if their pouch is still small.... check it out. Hopefully I will never have to use it !! I hear the 5 day diet of liquid gets you back on track.

I've heard that too... Right now I'm so stressed about life in general that I'm just taking it one day at a time...

I must admit' date=' I'm not just mindlessly eating now that I have to tattle on myself... LOL... I actually think about if I REALLY want that or not now :)

I have to say, I don't know a lot since I'm a newbi, but, your eating sounds ok to me. This is one of my fears that I will eventually gain. How far out are you? I'm one week tomorrow.

      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.
