Restriction back with a vengence



Recommended Posts

I was starting to enjoy the fact that I had a little more room to eat what I wanted to off my plate at meal time. I even managed to stop sneezing or having a runny nose.

I wasn't even concerned that I may be eating to much because I feel that my body needs to take a break from all the crap that has happened to it and just see where I land.

Well, restriction is back and so is the sneezing and runny nose when I eat a few bites. My personal alarm system has kicked in again and my stomach hurts so much if I push it and eat one bite more!

Hoping I don't lose more weight! I was told last week by my surgeon again not to lose another pound. He even pointed his finger at me... What nerve..LOL

Interested to see how long this will last this time....

How weird. I wonder what causes that? I have experienced similar times where I can eat no problem one day, and then the next I can hardly get anything in :/

I know you have been through so much. But when you think back - - - would you ever think someone would tell you not to lose another lb. LOL I hope I get to that point. Just kidding but lol

No your right. I never saw it coming. You could have knocked me over with a feather the first time he told me that....For over 30 years I was encouraged, yelled at, humiliated over weight. But never ever in my life time was told to not lose anymore....Surreal eh! :)

      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.
