So, I am almost a year out and I took my son to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch. I know I can't eat anything fried. I know I cannot eat anything that has too much spice because it will cause instant heartburn that won't go away for HOURS. I ordered a salad and I ordered the naked chicken - I had a bit of the salad and a piece of the chicken. Without even thinking, I grabbed a fried pickle and then another and yet another.

20 minutes later I was standing on the side of the highway getting sick to my stomach. My poor son was mortified. Humiliating because I know better and because he had to witness me getting sick.

However, I do firmly believe that I deserved it. I have fought a long hard battle and I have lost 100 pounds. I have never been healthier. I have never been in better physical shape since I am walking about 7 miles every day. I know what my body likes and can tolerate.

Oh - and my son has sworn off fried pickles so maybe this was a win after all.....

      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.
