Question...?

There is a lot of judgement going on here. No one knows what a person is going through in their life. Who are we to judge them? I agree it is frustrating to see people seriously fall off the wagon on their food plan. But we are not them. They fight their battles and we fight ours.

It does irk me. But I don't let it bother me. The ones that 3 weeks post op want to eat everything they had before and of course when it fails they blame everyone or everything but themselves. That's the part that irks me. I don't think it's really judging if they put it out there that their wls failed but oh wait they ate a gallon of ice cream and half of that pie just to see if they could.

But I just stop reading those and stick to the success and plastic surgery stories cause that's what I want during this ride. I love waking up and weighing in each morning, and even at only 26 pounds down the joys of shopping! That beats some desire for sugar or sweets that I used to have. Most of us went through too much to even get the surgery, why even want to waste these amazing tools?

Yeah I hate reading the posts regarding cheating. I need more inspiration and motivation. Not if I eat this, or if I eat that. That is literally asking for failure.

And I'm not meaning it to be judgmental, I meaning it because I went through so many hoops to have my surgery, recovery from surgery, loosing weight, and I don't want to go back to be heavy and medicated from obesity.

Stay strong and stay focused.

      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.
