Recommended Posts

Lol I did okay better then normal I had GNC total lean Protein shake for Breakfast for snack a cup of fresh pineapples lunch salad with Water then I had rice so I messed up again but I've noticed that if I don't stay home all day I stick to the diet but when I'm home I'm always looking for food and snacking ugh this sucks what area are you in

That is why I have gotten off track. I have been home sick for about a week with and ovarian cyst. It has disrupted my schedule and I feel like snacking all day long. Since my hormones are on overdrive I am craving all the bad stuff. My head hunger is so strong right now and it is driving me nuts!

You all don't have any problems eating the bad stuff?

My doctors office requires appointments with the nutritionist after surgery. In fact they have you pay $550 which is not covered by insurance, this gives you lifetime access to the nutritionist who you can call or see anytime. I'm not scheduled until 2/26 for surgery and I already have a binder full of papers and instructions from the nutritionist. Along with samples and coupons for different products. I can't believe some of your doctors did not give you more direction. It's no wonder why your feeling lost.

I had lots of direction, lots if pages in my binder, recipes too. One thing surgery doesn't do is take away choice, take away cravings (it doesfor about 6mons then it returns), doesn't take away old habits. And not everyone gets dumping either! I don't always dump if I screw up. Its behavior change are struggling with.... We just must keep and stay strong and keep pushing on!

One thing my doc gave me a new medicine for nerve pain. Been taking them for 3 days. Side effect for this medicine is weight gain. I can tell because after taking it about an hour after I feel like a bottomless pit

      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.
