First Official Weigh In



Recommended Posts

Well friends...wish me luck. Tomorrow is my first official weigh in since I took on a new healthier eating style. Lets see if the scale shows if my efforts were worthwhile.

The wife and I have been regulars at the monthly meetings. Last night was a cooking demonstration. First time I was able to tolerate yogurt...it was unsweetened Greek, but still counts in my book.

And I'm MOST happy to admit that since she is now eating WITH me we have successfully been able to control her blood sugars!!!!!

I'm so proud of her...you can't put that kind of happiness into proper words.

And she too is slowly losing some weight. All in all this will turn out to be the best decision we have ever made together.

Love you all...stay healthy my friends,

Jeff

      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.
