Why cheese?

LipstickLady,

I need to quit eating so much of it. I love cheese! Its the best! But I just eat too much of it. I need to start replacing it with something different. I have laughing cow with an egg just about every morning, then a cheese stick, then shredded cheese on my tuna or chicken, then a slice with dinner. That's about 250 calories worth of cheese most days! Kinda of high when I'm averaging 850 to 900 a day ??

@AngryViking: Buy the Mini-moos (the little individual containers that they use in restaurants). Each one is only 10 calories. I'm with you, coffee without cream is a non-starter for me. But using the individual servings keeps me from going overboard. I allow myself two mini-moos per day, most days. (Sometimes I have a third. Sssh!)

Oh..and I shall never give up cheese. As I move further into maintenance I migrate toward small quantities of STRONG cheese. I notice I do that more and more..bring on flavor, fat - but in modest quantity.

I went out tonight and amazingly only "tasted" the most delicious nachos ever made. It makes me feel like a normal human that I didn't need to wolf them.

I'm with @@CowgirlJane re the deliciousness of strong cheeses and their ability to keep me from going overboard on cheese. And yes, I could go way overboard on cheese. Everybody has their slippery slopes, and cheese is only one of mine.

Last night, for instance, I had 2.5 ounces of top sirloin with an ounce of Stilton blue cheese melted ever so slightly on top of the steak. Wow!

@@roundisashape -- JIF!! So many chemicals but SO GOOD! Honestly, it is the best tasting Peanut Butter out there! lol. I try to switch to real natural Peanut Butter but it just isn't the same. I also need to lay off the peanut butter. I have gotten into the habit of having peanut butter on multigrain crackers with my meals. I HAVE to stop! And I never used to be a peanut butter fanatic but now I can't stop!

@@esskay77

Have you tried the JIF natural peanut butter with honey? It's not "pure" but it's better content than regular JIF and it tastes good. Maybe that will help you wean off the regular stuff.

I was I could quit pretzels. Those are my weakness. Couldn't stand them before surgery. My favorite are the Pretzel crisps in everything flavor. Yummy!! Also chocolate is quite tasty; but I can easily eat it in moderation now.

      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.
