I'm sitting in class right now and there is a very obese woman sitting behind me eating a cheeseburger and 1/4 lb bag of fries and gulping on a huge soda. It's gross listening to her eat and gulp her soda.

I realized I used to eat and drink like this but dear God! I didn't realize until today I don't miss soda. I don't miss it all.

I feel horrible to be critical since I was as big as her. I think maybe I'm envious of not eating what is but I don't miss it and would be satisfied with a bite but she loud reaching loud. Ugh sorry needed to vent. Usually I was walk away but she is right behind me. :(

I felt the same way about a girl crunching on some potatoe chips today in class! In my mind I was saying how bad those chips are for her and if she only knew but I secretly wanted some lmao!

I find myself giving my husband looks while he's eating. Thinking are you really going to eat that second plate of spaghetti, really? Then I remind myself at least he eats slower than I did. I would had been done with my second plate 30mins ago! It's kinda ironic and scary!

Me too! Lol I ate super fast!!! But my thinking is awful and I have guilt for thinking and feeling this way. I felt like geez lady you don't need to eat all that. :/

But that's her path. I need to be less annoyed by the actions of others lol

I am right there with you Jenn! Thanks for reminding me to give others grace! I do find myself getting irritated easily, and then have to take a deep breath. Loving this amazingly crazy journey! Hope she doesn't come back to school with another full meal deal! :)

Ugh. I probably would've been slightly jealous lol Last night was the worst for me. After my husband and I had our "adult time" he made 2 cheeseburgers with bacon & fried egg on top while i ate my punk ass yogurt :-( idk if it was emotions but I wanted to snatch his burger, take a bite and cry!

Lol he worked up an appetite:) I thought I was jealous and I really thought about it, but I was more irritated how bad the sound was listening to her eat and drink lol

Thanks for feed back everyone. I never imagined my emotions and anger towards strangers eating. My weakness is the smacking my boss smacks her gum. OMG!

      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.
