I am proud and I have to say it



Recommended Posts

I have been on my supervised dieting now for just a couple of weeks but so far I have been doing fantastic and I feel fantastic about it.

My NUT told me low carb hi Protein and suggested between 30-40 carbs a day as a goal.

I have really been toeing the line and even though I have had several temptations nothing has pulled me off. Even able to ignore the hubby eating nutty buddy ice cream. I purchased it before I started dieting and it has to be eaten so I told him to have at it.

What really makes me happy is that we went out to lunch yesterday for the first time to our favorite Fish place. We love their catfish. I was torn for a few minutes but actually found myself reading the menu and asking questions. I ended up with a GRILLED SHRIMP salad, all totally approved and a glass of Water. It hit the spot and proves I can eat out and follow the plan too.

I am not scheduled to see the NUT again until Aug 17th and I can't wait to see if the change shows up in my weight.

      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.
