Well I'm just having some really bad "head hunger". I want something but am not hungry. I really hate when I get like this. I like 2 pounds loosing 100 and 22pounds to goal. I keep this in mind but it doesn't help!!!! So frustrated. I get tired of trying to find the right thing to eat. I get so burnt out on the same OL things. I need some new food suggestions!!!!

Getting over cheese...been over chicken for awhile...dinner is not so bad, but lunch ideas would be good. I like salads, but not a lot of Protein in there. I've noticed most frozen dinners have pasta...can't do Pasta.< /p>

Why do I always double post?! Sometimes even triple post?!

So doing ok after my back surgery. I am having some pretty severe right leg pain. I can only be up around 10 minutes before it starts throbbing so bad and my toes go numb. Then I have to lay down. Sitting doesnt help either. I talked to the surgeon's nurse today and we are going to wait until my appointment on Tuesday. Probably do some xrays and see if they can tell whats going on. It is frustrating to say the least but such is my life! Good news is that ive now lost all of the hospital Fluid weight and 2 more. 215 today baby! Hope all my April peeps are doing great!!

I can now see the last pages on my phone! Yay! Recovery was harder than I thought it would be from Mondays surgery. Still in the hospital. My bp dropped so low post op that they couldnt give me anything for pain for awhile. So yesterday we played catch up. I am now better with the pain which is great, but have now developed a fever of 101. ugh I just want to go home all ready.

Glad to hear you are doing ok! It has taken me a few days to get I to this app! I was on briefly and then it wouldn't load at all.

      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.
