Recommended Posts

Is it sad that I look forward to old hippy girls responses on here?? I'm sorry but the stuff that she eats is not part of this program. We signed up for this to lose weight. Not keep our old habits. I see her posting that she eats pizza, wings, corn, chocolate eggs today?? Why even bother having the surgery? I know it's not my life or my body that is being hurt here, but just some caution to others on here, eating those thing post op is not ok. I've lost 58lbs since December following my doctor and nuts orders and no where on the paperwork is 90% of the things she post that she eats... And how have you not experienced any dumping? Ok. Sorry I had to rant after reading her post tonight. *steps off his soap box*

I'm sorry but I have to agree. I do not want to offend or attack anyone here. I have to admit that I wondered the same thing about this person's diet. It threw me off at first to be honest because I started to compare my doctor and nut to hers and for a second thought mine was too strict, and I also even thought at one point that I'd be able to eat all types of fast foods freely at some point. This is clearly not true especially for someone like me because a lot of my weight gain is.due to fast food consumption. I think we all have to be careful not to go by everyone else's diet guidelines on here. First because they vary from doc/nut to doc/nut and also because sometimes some of us might make mistakes. We have to check with our doctors or nutritionist and/or members who already have more experience than we do.

You can criticize all you want it doesn't bother me. I totally get you. First of all I am 56 yrs old. I have been a diabetic for 10 years. I am almost 3 months out. I am not able to eat much when I do eat. I do not eat creamy foods like I have seen alot do with the Alfredo ewww can't stand it. I don't eat the refried Beans so many eat because there is no nutrition in them except high carbs. I am being honest. If you read my post every day you will see it is only for dinner that I comment. Yes I did have pizza 2 small slices that were thin very little cheese with mushrooms. Will I again no. Have no desire to eat pizza again because not only did it not taste good but the texture was horrid. I don't have cream Soups ever like I have seen folks eat, there is nothing wrong with KFC grilled chicken I never eat the skin on the birds. Very high Protein I don't eat much fried foods at all. I don't eat potatoes I eat some salads with a light vinergrette. I eat veggies but getting away from peas and beans high in carbs. I eat baked fish. It's very hard to not eat alot of things I can not a cook at all. Yes I had the chocolate eggs they were very small like a gum drop. Nope chocolate and I are not the best of friends anymore . And found out tonight. That means my tool is working for me. I have lost 53 lbs since January 1st my AC 1 has went from a 7. To 5 . 6 which is really good. I don't eat the Greek yogurts or any yogurts for that matter because the texture and taste is groce. So yea I do on occasion eat something bad or not and just not on the plan. But it's in a small amount to see how it taste and usually I can't eat it again. And yes I have had 2 bouts with dumping.

Oh tonight was the first for corn. 1 spoonful didn't like it, wings. What is wrong with wings if you pull the skin off. It's chicken and had no sauce on them and they were not fried but baked in the oven.

I do tell the truth I am not going to cheat myself or lie on this thread to make me sound like I am perfect. Because I am not perfect. One of the reasons I had the surgery was because I was having huge health issues. Not to land a man because aim married. Not to get pregnant because well I am too old. Lol it's just to get healthy I need to lose another 60 lbs and I will be good. So anyway thanks for pointing out my flaws. But be sure you look in the mirror to see if you have any my friend

I admire your courage and honesty, old hippie gal. No one is perfect. If they were they wouldn't be on this planet. I'm 58, married and rarely cook. Sorry, I'm just at a point in my life where I don't cook for kids anymore and I have the resources to eat out 7 days a week. I just watch what I eat and stop when I've had enough. I get on the scales every day to make sure I don't gain. I've lost 80 lbs and I'm 10 months out an still losing. My diabetes is gone and my cholesterol is normal. If I never lose another pound, but I will, I have accomplished my health goals. My surgeon is pleased and I have never been told not to eat something. All I have ever been told is 60-70 grams of Protein, and 64 ounces of Water. Why some people have to be judgmental is beyond me. We do the best we can, take it one day at a time and get on with it.

I also look forward to seeing what you've eaten, because you're eating real food!!! I'm thrilled so many people can get bypass then never eat carbs again, or never eat anything bad for then again, yeah for them but for me this took is on help me decrease the amount I eat. Yes I eat healthier and plan to continue that, but yes I do plan to have a slice of pizza or a chicken wing once in a while. Do what you need to do for yourself and keep up the good work!!!

      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.
