Fell off the wagon

I have had one heck of a weekend. I ate the wrong things and drank coke. I know I shouldnt beat myself up but the shame of it will help me so my job now is to get back on the wagon and not let this set me back. It is so easy to let this get to me and cause me to feel like I failed even though i know I have not failed but it is still a let down to myself. I just wanted to let you know that I was bad and be honest about it. Back to basics.

Don't beat yourself up. Life is all about ups and downs, temptations, trials etc. every day is a new day. All you can do today is be better than yesterday. It does no good to focus on the past.

Thanks everyone. It is nice to know that I have friends in the same boat as me. I am back to normal now. My brother just moved in with me so I am not used to having junk around me. No more for me now. I had my share and I am good. I know that once you get started it is hard to stop so I am making a conscience effort to repel the urge.

I made the choice to eat badly this weekend as well but I know I can eat well the rest of the week. You are not alone in this weight loss/maintenance world :D

I went through a time when I ate Cheetos for a several weeks! Then I got depressed. Then I got mad stopped and started over. Back on track and headed to goal. I know that this is a journey and I not perfect! However, this tool is gift and has to be used appropriately. I'm on a journey of a lifetime.

I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed my grilled sausage I had over Memorial Day weekend! I also ate the top to a cupcake. And before surgery, I would have thrown my hands up and said that I might as well just eat crappily the rest of the week. But my mindset has changed. I stuck to my diet in the days after and made sure I exercised. I agree this is a journey and I'm not a failure if I eat one wrong thing.

      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.
