Hello all



Recommended Posts

I: I hope you are all well! My life is going fabulous! Still watching what I eat and trying to tweak my nutrition. Had a long year of injuries from running. So I have narrowed it down to needing more nutrients. Protein Shakes galore. Lol

In may I will Celebrate my 3rd surgiversary! Seem so unreal to me even now!

My body image is still outta whack, almost 3yrs and I still see the fat guy. But fortunately the scale and mirror says different.

I am truly thankful for the life this tool has afforded me!

Nothing tastes as good as thin!

Thats me doing the electric slide at the chocolate run in Dallas two weeks ago in my MnM costume :-)

Oh, I ate the chocolate. It remains my one weakness! I am such a chocoho!! Lol

Anymore, i have a hard time getting enough of anything in to keep up with the running demands.

In fact I have considered giving up the half marathons as my body has really hard time nutritionally at those linger distances.

Congrats on the chocolate run. I'm not a big chocolate fan but if there is ever a cupcake run, count me in

      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.
