STUPID MOVE ON MY PART

Actually I don't think it was stupid at all. You went into it thinking you were eating a high Protein food. If it is something you have made a hundred times in the past it may just not have occurred to you that you could dump from it. Now you know and experience is the best teacher.

Now imagine if that was ice cream? I bet you'll weigh the enjoyment of the eating versus the anguish of dumping before trying any really unhealthy foods!

Before surgery there was a running joke in our house. "You don't own the Colonel, you only rent it". KFC frequently sent us running to the toilet. Fried foods are often difficult.... No worries!

Just to cover the bases though, be sure to examine the other ingredients to see if there was anything else in the cakes that you hadn't had before. The fish was fresh out of a can, right?

The salmon was fresh out of the can, yes. Expiration date was in 2019. Only other things in the mix was cornbread mix, diced onions, and low fat mayo.< br>

      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.
