Momentary Lapse Of Reason (Paying For My Sins)



Recommended Posts

I did it. I ate 1) solid food too soon and 2) Too much of said solid food now I feel like my pouch is going to explode while I dump from both ends. For all my education, for all my knowledge, for ALL my common sense I did the ONE damn thing I wasn't supposed to and now I am paying dearly. -1000 points for Sheer Stupidity!!

(what, might you ask, could be SO tempting as to risk my physical health?? chicken souvlaki on pita with titziki and tomatoes.)

sigh - i've been craving a gyro for weeks now so i can kinda feel your pain. i know that one bite won't be enough so i won't get one. i did over do it with tomatoes the other day and felt full and acidic for the rest of the day.

consider it lesson learned - you won't do that again!

Ahh :( hope you start to feel better soon.

I actually feel fine, I think it was the drink of Water that did it :( although I do feel more pain in my major left incision...

I ate one piece of the chicken with Tomato and pita, pretty much a normal pre-op bite but now what imagine the full size of my pouch post-op. I chewed it to high heaven but then I absent mindedly took a big sip of Water...and that us what did me in. I only threw up the Water, but have fairly bad pain on my left side now :(

(technically I am still supposed to be on purée until thurs-another 3days till soft can start)

      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.
