DQ cheat -- dang it! Help!



Recommended Posts

I am the same way with coke (soda,pop,etc). I drank at least 6 cans of it a day.. particularly Mt. Dew.. When I went in for my first consultation with my new doctor (1 month pre-op) he said I couldn't drink carbonation post-op. So I started THAT DAY to prove to myself I can do this. I haven't had a coke since.. It was rough, and still is sometimes. We don't keep any cokes in my house anymore, DH who also loves it, will get it at work and not parade it in front of me or have it in the house to tempt me.. But every time I go to my parents house to watch movies or family cook out, there it is.. rows of Grapico, Mt. Dew and Coca Cola. It kills me!! I want one SO bad.. I just have to close the fridge and distract myself. This is something, that if I allowed myself 'one every once in a while', it would be my downfall. I can't control my 'addiction' to cokes.. so I have to just stop!

I think stopping at a medium blizzard is a start. Move along :)

Don't dwell on it, just take it for what it is.. a weak moment. Any weak moments I have with things I shouldn't have, I exercise more that day to make up for it.. which I don't want to do anyway, so it kind of balances out.. is it really worth having to walk another mile just to eat xxx? Probably not.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
