Went through halloween with not 1 piece of candy! First EVER!



Recommended Posts

I cant beleive it... I did not pop 1 piece of halloween candy in my mouth this whole season. Im sorta afraid to because right now, I cant remember how good it tasted and I dont want to remind myself. It paid off - 33 lbs down today and Im actually wearing skinny jeans tucked into boots!! And I got a compliment from the very 1st person I saw today: She said I looked great in this outfit. Small victories/feeling happy! :):D:):D

That is a great achievement - congratulations! It's kind of scary to think of going back to eating "normal" food... I kind of don't ever want to because I don't want to end up where I was before!

Me neither, I'm trying to stay true to this liquid diet. My daughter baked Cookies yesterday to bring to her brother at college and left one on the cooling rack. It's still there, I think she was testing me.lol

Same here! I resisted but wasn't even really tempted that much. I'll be glad when it's all gone (this weekend it's going in the trash) so I don't have to even think about it. Before I would had hidden pieces all over the house for "later." Victory!!!!!

Lol my kids used to hide their candy from me!

I'd go in their rooms and hunt it down when they went to school.

Even for those of us that were a little weak and had something naughty, just think of what damage we would do prior to surgery. We would buy our candy and then have to buy more for the trick or treaters because we had eaten it all. I would have candy wrappers stashed in my purse and would hide the evidence under the garbage so I wasnt found out. Those days are over.

      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.
