It's probably an emotional eating habit. So common. It's a pattern hard to break, but you can do it. Find a hobby or something to occupy your mind. I used to be drawn to the kitchen when I was not hungry and would eat 2 or 3 different things. Since surgery I try to make it a point to find things to do or dwell on the fact I am full and content. Just recognizing the fact you want to eat when not hungry is half the battle. You have this beat!!! Best wishes for great success. :)

Instagram and Facebook are just as bad, I'm not sure why everybody takes pictures of their food but it is really getting on my nerves!

Yeah! Why do they do that??? I guess they always did it but I wasn't as aware of it!

I only watch stuff I DVR so I can fast forward through the commercial's lol.

Im just sucking on things. Hubby had some spanish rotisserie chicken the other day & he doesn't eat the skin, I sucked all the seasoning off the darn thing and I was find. Another day he left a piece of bacon on the stock, I sucked all the flavoring out of that. And yesterday he made Tina fish, I ran my finger around the inside of the bowl and licked that lmbo. Im fine if I just taste it. Lol

Lol... I haven't tried sucking chicken skin. But I have licked my fair share of sour cream and onion Pringles... Just having the taste in my mouth makes me feel like I've eaten some.

      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.
