Recommended Posts

Keep in mind I'm 15 weeks out tomorrow! Some days are great others are terrible, I want to eat my arm or my husbands, but then I eat something hearty like soft beef or a mini red potato dressed up and feel better, followed by fruit, Propel and Water... All serving sizes unless Soup are typically 2-4oz in either volume or weight.

What I ate today:
  • Two egg white bites
  • Apple slices with peabut butter and a date
  • Sushi Rice
  • 1 Peanut Butter cookie
  • Non-fat greek yogurt, made locally, with a sliced banana and mashed strawberry sauce & granola
What I ate yesterday:
  • 2 egg white bites - 13g carbs 13gr Protein 170cals
  • 3oz split pea Soup (was still full from egg white bites)
  • 1/2 pc pizza (no end crust)
  • 2oz yogurt with granola, half a small organic banana
  • 1 baby potato chopped and mixed with avocado hummus, seasoned rice vinegar and seasonings
What I ate two days ago:
  • Thai Cashew Slaw ( I LOVE IT)
  • cheese wedge and almonds
  • More Thai Cashew Slaw (no mayo)
  • Pot salad - 1 baby red potato cooked and chopped, with 1 egg, 1/2 of an avocado, cilantro, herbs, green onion other seasoning. Mashed avocado with herbs and other seasonings to make a dressing
  • Raspberries
KEEP ON KEEPING ON!

Do you snack at all between meals, usually? I can't wait 4 hour between meals, I get dizzy. How do you do it, any smoothies, or otherwise between? Thanks!

I don't snack in the morning at all. I don't feel hungry and have to make myself eat Breakfast.

BUT

When the 4 hours ( sometimes 3.5 or 5hrs) is up I know my a hollow feeling I get in my throat.

Don't get me wrong I feel I could eat cause I want to. I haven't lost that yet or ever lol..

In the arvo it's harder. I eat my "snack" or small meal at around 2 pm and by 4 I'm feel I'm ready to go again. Not because I'm" hungry" but cause I just wanna eat!... I do have the occasional bit in between like cheese etc or a Protein drink but not a lot..

When I roll through the door at home I'm stil straight to the fridge .. but I don't eat it's a habit.

I'll make a cuppa tea. It seems to tie me over till grub time again.

A Protein Drink made with Water would be ok.

Maybe I'm too strict lol

I have a minimiser ring in as well so I'm not sure if that helps me.

I get dizzy but cause I need my meds adjusted.

It's all a learning game and a massive head game.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
