Dub 9,922 Posted May 11, 2016 I ate guacamole the other day with some fritos is that bad? I am so hungry right now I want a fried shrimp sandwich with hot sauce Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App Guac isn't bad.....lots of good fats and flavor that will keep you satisfied for hours. Fritos........kick those bishes to the curb. Fried anything........again, kick that crap. Admittedly, I haven't gone back and read other replies...you most likely have already read better advice and applied it. I hope you kick some arse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaxmom 644 Posted May 11, 2016 "Vegemite is the food of my people". Thanks KindaFamiliar... My few final owie stitches were so close to healing up finally... Oh no and now the hubby hears me guffawing! Kids are up!!! Dog barking!! I hope you are happy you have wreaked havoc upon a nice, quite family in Jacksonville, Florida!!!!!! Actually don't worry about it. We are bored and welcome distractions! Especially the dog. Now I'm off to bed. I will leave you all with this: sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite.

Andrea72 510 Posted May 11, 2016 @@KindaFamiliar You'd be my very best friend for life!! I so miss my beloved Vegemite sandwiches. And since bread is on my "do not eat" list, I finally have a reason to attack the jar with nothing but a spoon. ~Sigh, Gasp, Drool~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FocusOnMeNow 599 Posted May 11, 2016 I eat my guac, which is tremendously healthy with lots of potassium and good fat with a limited amount of "Beanitos" they are a bean based healthier version of Doritos. You can also use veggies for dipping in guac if you are on solid food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UsernameTaken 283 Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) I am on a pre op liquid diet almost 2 weeks now, my surgery is on Friday morning... Yes it's very difficult, but every time i want to put something in my mouth that I'm not supposed to I think of why I am doing this and that I don't want to wake up from anesthesia and learn they couldn't do my surgery because of fatty liver blocking the way... I have come way too far to get here. Today at work they ordered pizza, I went to a different room in the office and had my warm broth because I didn't want extra temptation. Ask yourself if you are really ready to make this commitment... This is not just another diet you are starting after surgery and it won't just last certain # of weeks, we have to make these changes for life and find comfort in other things (I have been cleaning and organizing like there is no tomorrow to keep my myself occupied and not think about food) Wish you all the best but really think about it if you are really ready to do this... It's not a magic pill... Edited May 11, 2016 by UsernameTaken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
