Is there any foods that you totally miss?



Recommended Posts

I'm a foodie and still am within reason. I don't miss anything in particular, only when I might have a craving. I mostly desire crunchy foods and those of course include crunchy Cheetos. I'm trying to feed the need for crunch with vegetables. Right now, I'm on a raddish kick.

Secretly I get angry that some people can eat whatever they want and not exercise and still look great. I'm one of the ones that still after wls has to watch what I eat, count calories,weigh myself all the time and exercise! Obsessed with the weight that I still have to lose - ugh!

I was just chatting with Carolina Girl about food we used to love.

B4band, one of my go to Snacks was this sandwich:

Dense, high Fiber, whole grain bread. You know, the ones that a loaf weighs enough to qualify as a workout weight?

Peanut butter, jiffy, extra crunchy please.

Jam, preferably strawberry but any berry type worked.

Bologna, 2 slices.

Miracle whip on one slice of bread, Peanut Butter on the other, jam on PB and bologna on the miracle whipped side, press together. Large glass of 2% milk. Enjoy.

Now, I haven't had one of these in over 2 years, but I'll bet I still love it. So therefore, I won't go there but while I'm fantasizing about winning powerball, I can fantasize about my PBJB sandwich. :D

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
