OH Hang in there!! It is SOOO hard. I know. I have figured out thru this process I just can't have carbs. I love them so but as soon as I eat them, the scale shoots up. You can do this! We are here for you. Maybe start weaning yourself off of them? Antoher words eat less and less of the bakery items each day? I had to do this with chocolate.< /p>

I have found tracking what I eat helps the most. You might want to try my fitness pal and truly log in every bite you take... When you see how many calories are in those bakery items you might be less likely to eat them... Hang in there

It was a little harsh this comment but I must agree. We can't have major surgery & go back to old habits. They have nice low fat treats or once a month you can treat your self but if you keep going back to the bakery section your gonna gain more weight & regret it. Control your self. Everything in moderation is great. Just don't over do it. Sometimes I get a sweet tooth. I have 1 scoop ice cream & I'm done I then drink Water. If I keep on I know I will gain. I haven't gain yet don't plan to but it's hard I know but try to control it.

Not meant to be harsh. Sorry just don't want us to fail. Sometimes in certain situations were just setting ourselves up.

      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.
