A little about my journey so far

[turbomom22 21]

I am 50, starting weigh 254, down to 233 this morning, I just finished week one of my pre op diet, (I had started higher Protein less carbs before my pre op) a week to go my surgery is scheduled for the 23rd.

The first few days on the liquid diet were difficult, now I'm not hungry forcing myself to drink the Protein Shakes(which I order through unjury)

You can add a scoop of Peanut Butter flavor protein to SF chocolate milk when you need something sweet, or a ice and strawberry flavored protein for a smoothie; those are just a couple of my favorites.

During the first few days struggles I'll share a few things that worked for me.

I had made chocolate chip Cookiesfor the grandchildren...the temptation got the best of me I had a very very small bite chewed real good and then spit it out I did that three times and that craving was satisfied, another time I licked a chicken nugget just two licks lol.

Well that's me up to date . I'd love to hear more of your stories.

I thought that I was the only one who cheated "a little", my favorite cheat is pizza ! When my wife buy pizza for the kids, I SMELL it, deep breaths of delicious melty pizza, I confess
