Weekends are becoming my enemy :thumbup:

Me too! There is soooo much going on over the weekends that revolve around food. I'm going to a birthday party in a bit, and there will be junk food galore, lol. I have done well today so far, just hope I can keep it up through tonight.

How far along are you in your surgery process? Do they just not go down for you? I will admit that the greens were cooked down so well that they melted in the mouth. That is probably the only reason I was able to get them down.

I'm over a year out. I've tried collards but haven't tried the blackeyed peas yet. I might just try them this week.

I did okay!! I stayed the same--no gain or loss?!

Today was a blur :lol:- Got up early to run errands, all was ok until my youngest DS had an accident on his scooter. He fell and hurt his left hand. Ended up at Urgent Care for 3.5 hours though. He's ok, just sore.

So just when I thought I’d be on top of my meals and journaling, this happened.

Did good though, didn’t eat junk food all day but didn’t eat like I usual do for the day, every 1-2 hours or drink like I usually do.

Ya; I was hungry!:blink:

Today:

8am B/Oatmeal

11pm s/small bag of gummies

2pm L/Tuna salad on flour tortilla w/lettuce, 2 sl American Chz, 7 Doritos chips

3:30p s/Nature Vlly Oats & Honey 1 of a two pack

8pm D/Tuna Salad sandwich on white, 7 Doritos chips

Water: 48 oz

georgia girl-how did you do at the party?

My mom said maybe I should have Protein Shakes during the weekend to maintain. I'll try it tomorrow.

TVP is texturized vegetable Protein (in the granular form it looks like brown rice or bulgur, it also comes in strips as a meat substitute). I bought the granular form, I've found several recipes for it (oatmeal, fried "rice", things like that). I made it (reconstituted it with chicken broth), used it as rice and topped it with chili, lf sour cream, lf cheese and green onions...it has about 80 calories per 1/2 cup and 1 g carbs.

yesterday

bad food day, nothing would stay down

dinner-low carb chili over 1/4 cup tvp topped with lf sour cream, lf cheese and green onion

lots of Water

that sounds interesting - where did you get it?

i am waiting on DH to wake up and hit the gym/farmers market/whole foods. i'm up 6lbs in 2wks - which is fine considering the fast loss of 11 when i was sick. but i got to CHECK my appetite & intake here this wk. don't have the time to spend 3hrs in the gym to counter my food:ohmy:

      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.
