Ok...I have to confess...last night I went out with my husband and children to a mexican restaurant and had some chips and salsa and then almost a whole taco (not lean) with sour cream (not fat free). I tolerated it very well but was so full I was almost sick. Feel super guilty and refocused today :/

Please share some of your weakest moments! We all have them and have to get thru them :) :)

No blasting for bad choices- just sharing please!

Decided I needed garlic chicken from my fave restaurant yesterday at lunch. Only ate 4 oz, but got sick as I may have ate it too fast [or maybe it was too much quantity or maybe it was too spicy]. Sure tasted good, [while it lasted].

I haven't gone 'hog wild" but I will taste or take a chuck of about anything. However, Hubby and I went to Applebee's the other day. I ate way too many chips and salsa. I felt like crap for at least two hours. Thank goodness I just got Soup with it or I would have been in bad shape. But the salt was soooo good. Darn PMS! :P

I have at salsa and low sodium chips... Basically because nothing else would stay down, and I needed to eat. The salsa was freshly made so I don't consider it a cheat when I still stayed within the guidelines.

Today I went to Boston market and got chicken with vegetables. Just picked at it. Trying soapy ways toget Protein in, but it's hard for me

ALL THINGS IN MODERATION!!! Yes, one is better than four slices! lol We all need to learn to live a normal life and a little cheat now and then does not hurt.

I don't like the word cheat!! Especially since we can eat regular foods just in moderation. I see nothing wrong with a nibble here or there just as long as its not nibbling all day all night every day. But if you have 5 chips in a week that's pretty good instead of the 5 bags a week. Or the one slice of pizza compared to the whole thing. Plus the toppings on pizza are good for you depending in the toppings. cheese is. Veggies are. Protein in sausage and the other meats. The only thing not so good is the bread but we are allowed to have some breads in moderations. Please don't use the word cheat!! It just makes you feel guilty like you did something bad and need punished for!! We are human!!

I really like what you said. It's hard not to feel guilty but you're right we're allowed things in moderation.

      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.
