Sleeves 5/1

[Newbeva 73]

I survived the 1st week! Have my 1 week follow up tomorrow.
I have to say that today was the worst day by far. My head hunger was out of control and it had me regretting the surgery.
Started with an email from pizza hut... it looked so good. Then a commercial for subway. Then my sister rubbing in going to Texas Roadhouse for a steak. My friend snapping me a pic of her Wendy's burger and fries about killed me. And finally with my husband bringing home lasagna and cake from his Dad's bday party.
I did lick a peep today... I was weak. But you know what? Peeps give no flavor unless you bite it so it was a wasted lick. And a reminder at just how much of a b***h my own mind can be and that I need to fight twice as hard to knock her off her throne. I wanted to lick a piece of lasagna... but i didnt.
Now that it's bed time I feel better. Not as sad and grumpy.
And I didn't need any Zofran today so that's a win.

On another note, I am struggling with my Fluid intake. I have only met goal 1 day since surgery so I have to work on that big time.

Also Pinterest has a ton of great recipes for the soft phase and further out too.

Best of luck to all the other May 1st sleevers and hope everyone is doing well!

The mind game is 100% real! In the hospital I couldn't stop dreaming about food. I totally get it. My wife made a pizza for her and my daughter last week & I thought it cruel lol. I'm no longer a big pizza fan, but knowing I can't have it makes all the difference.

I too am struggling with fluid intake. I've made it to 60 oz the last days, after staying up late. The crazy part is I am on top of it the entire day. Sigh.

Yay for us making it to 1 wk post op! I'm thrilled with my 10.2 lb lose & keeping my eye on the prize!
