I struggled today at the,family cook out. Totally derailed. I did real good most of the day. Had a shake for Breakfast, and apple. Walked 3 miles with the hubster and dogs.Had a shake for lunch, nuts and apple for a snack. I wasn't really hungry allday. But boom... at the cook out all the bad eating happened. I was not hungry but I ate way too much and poorly. There were healthy options but I didn't choose wisely. I know I can't change things and I'll be back on it tomorrow. I have my 3rd pre op weigh in tomorrow so I'm stressing a bit. Over all I've been eating okay. A few of off the wagon eating but no where like before this process. I'm probably making too much out of it. But augh . I have a very busy 3 weeks with graduation, parties, a ball, and several picnics.

I read your post and thought this lady is a smart cookie. I think you should Celebrate that you know you made bad food choices today and know tomorrow the food choices will be better.

As an obese person when I think back on my eating I think how I would make bad food choices one day after the another until it was so out of control it was difficult pulling it back together...

Thanks. I'm just happy I recognize it so much better. Picnic season is harder for me than the winter holiday season.

I'm trying to come up with a better plan for the next picnic in 14 days. I might just bring my own food and sit away from the food or play with the kids.

I go to the ball in 7 days. It's amazing rum bar, scotch bar and tons of finger foods. I know how to avoid the bad stuff there. Although scotch and rum are my favorite drinks. Theyusually have,a great fruit and veggie spread.

That's tough.. I'd avoid the food table area. Drink Water or eat a popsicle. Not sure what your allowable food is but eat a hard boiled egg to kinda mock the texture of the potatoe?hang in there!

      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.
