This was my day. How did yours go?

Breakfast: oatmeal, frozen blueberries, and walnuts.

Lunch: 2 chicken soft tacos, yes, from a chain that you might be able to guess! With refried Beans, double salsa, sour cream, and cheese. I only ate one of the tortillas. They’re not bad, though – not too many carbs! I looked them up online afterwards.

Dinner: Chicken breast with lemon pepper marinade. Microwaved frozen brussels sprouts on the side. I’m not always much of a chef, but at least I got my Protein and veggies in at this meal.

Dessert: It happens, and I don’t fight it. It was ice cream time, and I savored every spoonful of the full-fat stuff.

Okay, maybe not the healthiest day, but not too bad considering the cravings I satisfied! :)

I couldn't finish dinner! I'm 5 weeks post op so I'm just now introducing cooked veggies which was amazing. I just read a NYT article about how your tastes and cravings change after bariatric surgery. I seriously can't tell you how delicious this pepper was.

Now you got me wanting tacos. I think that is tomorrow's dinner ..minus the shell of course.

      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.
