Chocolate monster



Recommended Posts

I had so much chocolate this weekend I am so mad at myself. Felt like pre-op me again. I dont like that obeast! Why oh why??? Why did i do this?? I craved it so much though and i just gave in! It doesnt make me dump (but breadstuffs and pies does). I am so mad at myself. So afraid that i am self sabotaging myself. And i have been so good this whole time. Always eat like i should. Just struggling to get into a groove with exercise, really dont like exercise. Sigh. Just allover depressed and mad at myself and mad that i have to feel this way now i thought i was over and done with with this self-loathing after self-indulging. Just want to cry a bit and be done with this whole journey. Be at goal weight. But i am only two thirds there. Still a third to go! Oh man!

Ok OB..whats done is done. I am the biggest sugar addict I know, Literally!. I had to have LONG LONG hours of therapy to get my sugar addiction under control. Hi my name is Dee, and I am a forever recovering sugar addict.

Welcome to my world. sickening isn't it?

During my therapy sessions, and before surgery, I was made to look at my FAT self. I couldn't. whats in her future, look at it. deal with, and move on. I saw nothing in her future, no good health, no happiness. Bleak. Over and Over again I was made to see my THINNER self, what was she doing? what was she wearing? what beach was she sitting in a bathing suit? She must be in good health? she's traveling etc. All those scenerios were so I could see what was in my future. She look happy.

Listen mishaps are gonna happen, alas were human. ITS AND OLD CLICHE but get up out of the pity pantry. Be pissed at yourself, and move forward. Defeat should NOT BE IN your vocabulary. Its a bump in your road, so what!!! stand up woman..its what women do, we wallow, we cry, we get mad as hell, and we power forward. God gave is that gift for free. Move forward darling, move forward..oh dust yourself off, clean your face, and kick this bump in A$$. There's pounds to SHED!!!!!!!

I am the same way but when it comes to my moms cooking. I went home to see her this weekend. I think I did ok over all I only allowed myself to eat her home cooked Breakfast. All my other meals I prepped or made sure they were friendly. I didn't gain a pound sooo glad for that.

Keep your head up and as Dee said its a bump in the road keep working on it.

      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.
