Bandsters, What did you eat today???



Recommended Posts

Right, am doing the liquids only thing for the next 5 days, as that's what I've been advised to do!

So

Meal Replacement shake for brekkie,

Soup for lunch and another shake for dinner....

I might have a 4th shake if I'm hungry later, but I want to do as I'm told and stick with fluids!!!

sounds drastic! Why did they tell you to go on fluids only Anon?

Feel a bit better restricted since my last fill and find that I am not able to eat too much! Yipee!! So yesterday I had a jacket potatoe for lunch (had skipped breakfast! I know naughty!) and a chinese for tea, although I did not get through half of the meal! Great!

Today, 1.5 boiled egg and 1 slice of bread for Breakfast

will attempt roast chicken with carrotts and peas for lunch, not decided on tea yet.

have to say Susan that, although some of your food choices are unfamiliar to me.... it doesn't seem excessive, how many calories does it total?

As for me well I'm WELL restricted!

Breakfast; two mouthfuls of porridge

Lunch; 1 walnut size piece of bread, 2 spoons of minestrone Soup...

Dinner; about 50g of salmon, and 2 bites of corn on the cob.... pb'd the lot!!!

bit later 1/2 ryvita with philly light and 2, yes I did say 2 glasses of red wine... as I type I'm feeling quite squiffy!!!

hope you're all doing well... I'm looking forward to standing on the scales this week!!!

Saturday;

Meal Replacement shake

100g chocolate at the cinema :o

MORE CURRY! about the same amount of a different curry, no wine tonight!

Sunday:

small bowl of oatibix flakes with S/S milk

Went to a pudding club lunch!

... then a spoonful of each of the puddings on offer over the course of the afternoon....

Surprisingly I had a taste for food by then so for dinner I had:hungry:

Well, I've been fighting my band since I had my last adjustment!

Have struggled with 'proper' food and have resorted to eating crapola... ice cream and chocolate always goes down!

So today I'm back on the liquid diet.... shakes for brekkie and lunch then Soup for dinner me thinks... the others are having steak tonight and I just know that's not going to go down.... no way Jose!!!

Hope you're all losing... no matter what you're eating!

Hi Guys,

Sorry I haven't been posting for awhile. Been a crazy month, I still haven't gone for a fill (can't afford it :cry), but I am now officially a size 16! My food intake has gone up somewhat, so I definitely need to get a fill soon! Don't want to go up a size!

It'll be great catching up with you all.

Suzannexx

Sorry, not been in for a looonnng time! Been really bad and have put on 7 pounds! Oups! I have been living off junk. After my last fill, I thought all will be fine. It seems that I am restricted well in the morning but still not at all in the afternoon and evening. This is the time of day that I will be bad so not much good to me. My only hope is to save up and go back for another fill. I am thinking of changing my fill provider too.

Today I have eaten: Breakfast: sunflower seeds; lunch: green salad with ham and salad cream.

I am trying to have a good day. Wonder how long the good intention will last!

Big hug for you Brandy. Could you eat porridge in the morning? I find if I eat that it reakky keeps me filled up for a loooong time! I always have some currants mixed up with it. I have rice porridge due to having a wheat intolerance. Quite addicted to it now :)

I finally officially broke the 15st barrier now at 14.12! This time I intend to keep under 15 and get lower!

      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.
